Latest buffoonery on the Cafferty File. |
|
Reporting on Neil Young's upcoming album:
"Young has written a song called 'Impeach the President,' which is ironic since, after the 9/11 hijacking of Flight 93, he wrote a song called 'Let's Roll' in honor of the passengers on that plane."
Er, in what way is that ironic? I see no irony. Hijacking is bad AND the President is a lying asshole. Where's the paradox there? Seems pretty unambiguous to me.
Caff then goes on to ask viewers to phone in and say whether they think Young's song will make any difference, the clear implication being that he is a hypocrite because of the above-noted irony.

2. That's a weird comparison. |
|
More to the point, why should opinions remain concrete?

5. I'm guessing that our retarded 'leader' has set a new societal precedent |
|
whereby you must adhere to an ill-informed, gut instinct opinion, no matter the facts and no matter the consequences!

Most democrats were for invading Afghanistan and getting Osama and people who had been directly responsible for 9/11..... Impeachment is a different issue cause Bush used the "Let's Roll" sentiment to do all sorts of illegal stuff.

6. Sloppy not hypocritical |
|
I think he is pointing out that Young was pro-war three years ago and now has turned on Bush bigtime. Young, you may remember, has had Republican moments in the past.

7. Cafferty is making the mistake of equating the two |
|
When Young voiced his support for the heroes of 9/11, Cafferty just assumes that Bush was, of course, one of said heroes. Except we all know that he is an absolute peace of shit who used that tragedy for all it was worth. I think Young would agree with that statement.

There's more truth in that than Cafferty knows.

9. What does one have to do with the other?? |

Oh, I see the connection. The Bush crime family had flight 93 shot down.
