Rotting from the head down
By: TBogg Tuesday January 20, 2009 9:36 pm	Tweet

Andrew Breitbart is not content to let his "writers" (and I’m having a hard time believing that he actually pays these people in anything other than free movie passes and 2 for 1 coupons to California Adventure) write all of the muddled drivel at The Bitter Tears of the Third Extra In The Crowd Scene , so Andrew shows them how the master does it:

But that doesn’t mean I will forgive and forget an era of narcissism, petty complaining and conspiracy theory peddling from the majority celebrity class that began well before Iraq. [See "Hollywood, Interrupted " -- my book co-written with Mark Ebner -- which was written before and during the build-up to the Iraq war and before the WMDs weren't found. The public behavior from Hollywood even then was almost uniformly deplorable.]

So, the "majority celebrity class" knew that President Bush was a lying incompetent warmonger before the casus belli was found to actually be casus bullshit.

In the behind the curve world of conservatism, that is just show-offy and uppity.

Oh. And elitist.

Oy gevalt, he says his book was written “before the WMDs weren’t found.” HE SAYS IT. Apparently bragging about it, no less! In a normal universe, The Onion would have had to make that sentence up, but not when our GOP friends are around to amuse us.

I think that is perhaps the crowning achievement of the Bush II administration (quite an exaggeration, I know), his incompetence made the know-nothing self-aggrandizing nitwits in Hollywood look like foreign policy experts, repeatedly. When you make Barbra Streisand look prescient, you are truly full of fail…

. . . before the WMDs weren’t found.

An interesting example of what historians call periodization. I have never thought of dividing history by events that didn’t happen. Exactly at what moment weren’t they found?

Right before the government we installed that didn’t follow the policy we wanted was democratically removed from office.

Is that like “before the truth was not told”?

His last line:

Good luck, President Obama. The rest of you can go to hell.

Andrew, I may have punched my ticket for “down there”, but I have to think I have a better room than you reserved.

I believe it was when the ChimpenFuerher looked under the sofa.

Wait a minute, we can categorize the entire period of the Bush presidency with things that did not happen. It all started when Bush wasn’t elected in November 2000. In August of 2001, Bush didn’t read the presidential daily briefing, which led to him not stopping the attacks on September 11.. When he learned of the attacks, he didn’t stop reading “My Pet Goat” and didn’t return to Washington, DC… Someone with more free time than me can continue from there (careful not to go to long with what Bush didn’t do during Katrina, that could fill volumes).
