Trying to have it both ways

So...FOXNews decided not to run an ad that showed the Constitution being shredded by the acts of the Bush Administration. I find this hypocritical given their big thumbs up for Swift Boat Idiots and random racist bullcrap, but they are a company and can do whatever they want.

Too bad conservatives are incapable of understanding this concept of "live and let live". NBC recently turned down an ad from a conservative group asking us to support the troops. Nice sentiment, no? Well, it comes packaged with a campaign to extend the war at all costs and continues the evil meme of targeting anyone against Bush and his little war as weak-willed traitors.

So, NBC, trying to stay out of the fray, said no. Now they are being castigated by conservatives as being anti-troops and whatnot. What hypocrites!

Then again, this is the "family values" crowd that protects people trying to pick up teenage boys and cheat on their wives with random guys in airport bathrooms. This is the crowd that attacks JFK and Jimmy Carter for their religious beliefs, and even lets Nixon have no morals and vote in Reagan who got divorced. Hell, the only good thing about Mitt Romney I can say is that he's at least trying to fight this religious intolerance in his party. Granted, he's trying to get their support but at least he's aware there's a problem.

Sheesh. What a pack of repressive, short-sighted fools they are.
