Tucker & Joe

By Creature

Tucker and Joe pile on the liberals, not news. Joe calls liberals racists, not news. The Iraq war was fought to help Arabs, news. From tonight's Tucker:

TUCKER CARLSON: And yet the same people who criticize this war as misguided, are the ones pushing for us to move in Darfur.

JOE SCARBOROUGH: Not only that [they] were same ones that were saying that I was a cold hearted son-of-a-bitch because I didn't want to get America involved in a three-sided civil war in Kosovo, in Bosnia. A lot of adventurism going on in the 1990s, but for some reason the liberals seem to think it was bad to help Arabs, but it was okay to save white people. [emphasis me, and wow]

They have framed the Iraq war as having been fought to help Arabs, therefore how can the liberals be against this war? Liberals are the lovers of moral wars. Read Kosovo. Read Darfur. How disingenuous. How low. The Iraq war was never sold on moral terms. It was WMDs. It was terror. Whatever the intentions of the Bush administration were, helping the Arabs was last on their list. The moral stand would have been not to go in at all.

Oh, and Joe called liberals racists too.
