More Hamas Mickey Mouse Fun - Video And Comments From Moderate Democrats Added [Video]
Good news: PMW has uploaded their video of Hamas's biggest mistake ever to GooTube. Better news: They've left 2005 in the dust and enabled embedding for their videos:
Matt Yglesias - he of terrorist chic fame - also took time out of his busy schedule to comment on the video:
In fairness to him, it doesn't sound like he's trying to excuse it on those grounds. He seems to take it as a given that the video is execrable, and is basically saying "if you're looking for one small ray of hope in this mess, it's that the kids probably aren't paying attention". But check out the comments from his readers. Rather than cherry-pick, how about we just take the first three:
Come on Matt, we all know that Palestinian Media Watch doesn't give a damn about Palestinian children. -- Posted by faux facsimile | May 7, 2007 11:33 PM
I guess I missed the shocking part. -- Posted by Ed Marshall | May 7, 2007 11:49 PM
The beauty of these is that they display three distinct logical fallacies - the tu quoque ("you do it too!"), the ad hominem ("so what if you're right, you're a bad person and I don't have to listen to you!"), and the totalum fucking retardus (it's from Middle Latin, which is why it sounds different than the other two). But hey, anything so that you don't have to actually admit that the poor Palestinians are genocidal lunatics.
If you're a voting member of the centrist wing of the Democratic party, do click through and read some of the other comments too. And ask yourself: if one of the up and coming minds of the Democratic party can't make the Democratic base less insane, what are you going to do? And if you can't do anything, how are you going to make sure that the Democrats you elect listen to you rather than this far larger group of terrorist apologists? (h/t: MR reader David)
