Media Matters again makes fools of themselves by attacking Hannity's comments to nutjob Rosie O'Donnel on The View.
Rosie was going insane, telling Sean that 1. Bush is a war criminal who should be taken to the Hague and tried for these (imaginary) crimes. 2. Bush violated intl law by invading a "sovereign" nation like Iraq...3. she said the world/Iraq/and the US ISN'T better off now that Hussein is out of power, and THAT is when she went on her rant about claims of rape and murder at abu ghraib. RAPE AND MURDER?!?
Media Matters (a "progressive" ["progressive"ly stupid?] not for profit organization) leaves ALL of that context out and attempts to distort what Hannity said (he was replying to Rosie's nutjob comment that we liberated millions in two nations (Rosie says this never happened and that Hannity was DELUSIONSAL- which she repeated many times), and that these people were not better off because the rape and murder rooms were closed, since the US is raping and murdering people in prisons there (tho, this isn't even true.)
So, Media Matters exposes itself as a joke organization that deserves no credibility. Shocking!

I love when you guys do that. You take one small example (Media Matters has posted literally thousands of articles, check the archive) and then make it stand for the whole. There's actually a name for that sort of logical fallacy that I can't presently remember. Anyway, this sort of thing happens all the time in the Liberal Media books. A few isolated examples from millions of hours of coverage are supposed to convince us that all is like that.
Also, Josh, you haven't been posting my comments! I've deliberately made them nicer! Issues, not personal attacks! I get that now!
