Maddow Makes the Dick Army Connection

Rachel Maddow ties Dick Armey to the 9/12 birther brigadiers and challenges Coburn (R-Oklahoma) when she pretty much co-hosts Meet the Press.



Two minutes in, Coburn says that America has earned the disruptive, threatening discord that David Gregory has ably tied to the Oklahoma City bombing. The debate, Coburn said, when asked about the tone, "is NOT about healthcare. It's about an uncontrolled federal government."

To tell the truth, Coburn was referring to government earning the ire, not America, but the public is suffering the pre-fab protests just the same. The public is getting hit in the drive-by shootings the pantaloon goons are pulling, their time now wasted, abused by people disinterested in debate.

There's little point in quoting, because so much is said in the stammering tone of voice, but Maddow begins to dismantle the men at 4 minutes, 30 seconds, and shows David Gregory how it's done. At 7 minutes, she uses one of Dick Armey's legs to pick the rest of him out of her teeth.

But Maddow did fail to properly refute Dick Armey's claim that Moveon.org aired ads comparing Bush to Hitler.



MoveOn didn’t create the ads. They were submitted by contestants in a contest sponsored by MoveOn. If the debate's about who organizes and provides the venue or forum, it's fair to ask, what the difference is between the Moveon incident and the 9/12-birther conspiracy theorist's cookie-cutter threats fomented by FOX Noose and other Dick Army associates.

Obviously, we can compare the body count. A MILLION dead bodies in Iraq, many more wounded, 3 million uprooted, untold numbers mentally ruined by post-traumatic shock... the question of who's a bigger fascist is won by the guy with the most bodies around his belt.

We see the same RNC, GOP, the pantaloon goons marching in lock-step, mouthing Steve Doocy's morning propaganda release, the same way the Republican congressional staffers and Bush campaign leaders manned the ranks of that other so-called spontaneous public unrest: the Brooks Brother's rebellion that disrupted the 2002 recount in Florida.

Meanwhile, Dick Armey's obvious efforts to mask corporate lobbying as popular uprising are well-documented case studies in Astroturf installation.
