The narcissism of the extreme left is on full display today over at the Huffington Post, where Robert Scheer concocts a conspiracy theory worthy of a Paulbot. Scheer claims that the Georgian Crisis is the creation of a “diabolical” “neoconservative cabal” (yes, his exact words — these guys’ BDS defies parody) trying to manipulate the 2008 American presidential election:
McCain gets to look tough with a new Cold War to fight while Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, scrambling to make sense of a more measured foreign policy posture, will seem weak in comparison. Meanwhile, the dire consequences of the Bush legacy that McCain has inherited, from the disaster of Iraq to the economic meltdown, conveniently will be ignored. But the military-industrial complex, which has helped bankroll the neoconservatives, will be provided with an excuse for ramping up a military budget that is already bigger than that of the rest of the world combined.
Oh, dear. When will Scheer get into the nefarious role that the Bilderbergs are playing and their links to the Illuminati too? More importantly, how did the neocons get the Russians to deploy soldiers, tanks, and bombers to help elect John McCain? And does that count as a campaign contribution?
Yes, the far left really does seem to think that everything that happens in the entire world — even a war 10,000 miles away — is really only about us Americans and our domestic political vendettas. Welcome to Bizzaro World with your host, Robert Scheer.
I mean because, you know, Vladimir Putin wants as President of the United States someone who’s going to be more hostile to his country.
You should read the comments on the article you referenced. There are plenty of people who automatically believed that tripe. As for the Huffington Post, next they’ll be talking about McCain’s coup plans if he should loose the election. *rolls eyes so hard they fall out*
Alan,
That would be another interesting act of hypocrisy for HuffPo, since they were the ones who published an article calling for a military coup against President Bush about 9 months ago.
Somehow, they were able to survive the resulting furor without even so much as a single arrest, even in BushHitlerMcCheneyHalliburton’s totalitarian dictatorship….
Haha…
Wow, the Huffington Post and ThinkProgress.org are the most bizarre bunch of 17 year old liberals in the planet. Both of these websites live off of controversy and absolutely stupid articles or articles filled with direct lies about politicians.
