Dedicated to Exposing the Totalitarian, anti-Democratic, un-American nature of Fundamentalism

John Gibson, Partisan Hack

John Gibson--Fox News commentator, clandestine Bush Administration mouthpiece and alleged journalist--spewed more hateful, hyperbolic nonsense on his My Words Blog recently.

Responding to the lengthy and bizarre letter from Iran's President to our President, Gibson decided the letter contained a host of "Democratic talking points." For example, the letter noted that the gap between rich and poor in America has widened, and Gibson apparently realized that Iran's politicians got the idea from the traitorous Democrats, who do nothing but criticize President Bush.

(It's fun to watch Radical Right Conservatives attempt to continue their support for the worst President in our nation's history, a man who ruins everything he touches. His reign has been an utter and unmitigated disaster, and their Sisyphean efforts to defend him look more desperate and ridiculous every day.)

But when it comes to smearing Democrats, along with insulting entire cities like Berkeley and Boulder, Gibson fails to make other, more relevant connections.

For example, Gibson fails to point out that Christian fundamentalists in America increasingly sound like the Taliban. He fails to mention that the phony-pious faith-speech of our Radical Right leaders often uses the same black/white rhetoric and vocabulary as Al Qaeda's leaders.

Is Gibson guilty of intellectual dishonesty or ignorance? Or both?

If you want to make truly scary connections, Gibson, remember to point out that fundamentalism is just as arrogant, divisive, tyrannical and dangerous coming from a Christian as it is coming from a Muslim. Or would the truth get in the way of your ratings?
