Ex-Presidential pot to Pundit kettle: You’re black!
Takes one to know one, SIR:
In an interview with CBS News radio yesterday, former President George H.W. Bush called assailed the tone of our national discourse. “I don’t like it. The cables (TV) have a lot to do with it,” he said, adding that MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow and Keith Olbermann were partly responsible:
The Republican elder statesman said, “It’s not just the right.” He complained, “there are plenty of people on the left.”
While he said he does not believe in personal name-calling, he singled out MSNBC personalities Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow calling them “sick puppies.”
“The way they treat my son and anyone who’s opposed to their point of view is just horrible,” Mr. Bush said.
That’s right. President George Horton’s Willie Bush called Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow “sick puppies” for alleged namecalling.
My irony meter just a-sploded.
