Wholesale Mud Slinging

Max Boot and Friend

So, it was Boot's turn today to slither out from under whatever rock he calls home to pitch one from the standard wingnut playbook...

Aside from the fact that Boot, like his fellow wingnuts, seem awfully familiar with "the terrorists" (almost as if they were on the same team, y'know), this is actually just a side order...as the Rude Pundit pointed out, the main course will be good old-fashioned, home cooked appeals to...racism (also tried, true, and standard wingnut fare). We can expect quite a steady dose of it--the only question will be just how "normal" the media considers racism to be.

As I said earlier, we've got to remember that we're dealing with a faction that sees nothing wrong with using war--war, with all that war entails--to advance a political agenda. We're dealing with a faction that didn't hesitate for a second to play politics in the wake of Hurricane Katrina and the flood. A faction that better hope there isn't a God of the standard Christian definition...because if there is, a rather unpleasant eternity awaits.

Slinging mud is just another day at the office for them...
