Cartoon Jihad

Our lovely Mainstream Media and their fellow travelers on the hard left have more in common with the Islamofascists every day.

The Islamofascists whip up a frenzy by getting Mullahs and Imams to scream about the offense against Islam given by a few relatively mild cartoons published in a small Danish newspaper. They provide rent-a-mobs to riot and burn embassies and KFC restaurants.

The American media attempts to whip up a frenzy over the Vice President's shooting accident over the weekend. They are screaming and carrying on because the "White House waited almost 24 hours" before telling them about the incident. They continue to flog this, feigning outrage that the White House press secretary attempted to make a small joke about the incident while gleefully publishing every joke they could find made by late night talk show hosts.

The American media, with only a few exceptions, have refused to print the Muslim-offending cartoons "out of respect" for Islam. No such respect is shown to fellow Americans. The ghouls in the press corps surround the hospital the shooting victim is in. You can tell from the commentary that they really don't want the man to recover. The Koz Kidz are openly speculating on what to do when the man dies, making unfounded accusations that alcohol was involved and in general acting like the Jihadi rent-a-mobs. Without the rioting. But I'm sure someone over there will be calling for that soon, too.

All this serves to take the media focus off real problems that should be getting coverage. There were riots in Pakistan that reportedly had 70,000 people involved. The Iranians have restarted uranium enrichment. Ah well, much easier to whip up a frothing rage over an accident.
