Two Awesome Takedowns Of Preening D-Bags
— andy

Excerpting these pieces really doesn't do them justice, so be sure to read them both in their entirety.

First up, Jeff Goldstein leaves Talking Points Memo's Josh Marshall battered, bruised, and looking for the tag number of the truck that hit him.

... Marshall is overtly proud that heÂ’s surrendered his duty as a first responder for himself and his family and, in extremis, his community or nation, for the cheap grace of claiming no taint from the demon metal / polymer killing machine so fetishized by those who donÂ’t recognize that arms are for hugging (and aborting fetuses), not for the pleasure or yahoos who believe themselves some bulwark against imaginary tyrannical evil. Besides, everyone knows the best weapon is an ostentatious new law coupled to a good, hearty Twitter sneer campaign. Drop bon mots, not bombs!

Not to be outdone, Michael Moynihan dismantles the snotty Piers Morgan and leaves him stacked in nice, tidy little pieces ready for shipment back to whatever hole he crawled out of.

According to Politico, Morgan feels set upon, annoyed that his critics focus only on his interviews with conspiracy theorists like Jones and former professional wrestler Jesse Ventura. “Why don’t people watch my interviews with Justice Scalia, President Clinton, President Carter, the Dalai Lama, Michael Bloomberg, any of the Republican candidates for the nominee race, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.” It’s a question that CNN’s top brass would also like answered—his ratings have ticked up recently, though are still well short of his competitors at MSNBC and FOX—but it also rather misses the point. The act of interviewing clever and important people doesn’t, on its own, confer respectability. If The View were to spend twenty minutes discussing literature with Philip Roth, the only lesson to be drawn is that ABC hired a terrific booker—and that Roth was perhaps getting desperate in retirement.

Enjoy.

3 I think first responder was a great phrase to use there. You're on the scene and the first one to "respond" to the incident.

4 minorities hounded by supremacist groups who sought — like the modern-day progressive — to keep them meekly armed, if armed at all.

Proggs really are the ultimate in supremecists, aren't they...

5 "The largest Germanic tribe probably numbered no more than 100,000. Despite their relatively small numbers, the invaders were able to invade western Europe because they were militarily superior to the Roman army, the frontiers were poorly defended, and because they likely met with little opposition from the Roman population." "It is difficult to estimate the number of barbarians involved in the invasisons but roughly there were one hundred thousand Ostrogoths in Italy and about the same number of Visigoths in Spain. The Burgundians in southeastern France probably numbered about twenty five thousand. The estimated size of the Vandal army which crossed the Strait of Gilbraltar is eighty thousand. Thus the invasion forces constituted only a few percent of the population of the territories being invaded. This was enough to conquer a non-military population but not enough to surplant the culture of the people being conquered."

18 The only appropriate response to accusations of racism is to reply in the same. For example, "You're racist against bps kafir wanting to take away their freedom of arms. Why do you think lack people need disarming, and why don't you care about children in Chicago who are being killed by your racist policies." As Ann Coulter explained, a racist is a conservative with a rational argument. The left can't stand on reason, so they must eliminate it from the debate. Trying to reason with them is like trying to reason with a terrorist. Don't try. Return in kind.

So wtf is responding to them in a rational manner when all they care about is smearing people? I have started in my personal life just to be the biggest fucking asshole imaginable when I hear that shit anymore. Call someone on the right a racist or retarded....well you like to fuck children and last night I saw your wife making out with some random guy in DC.

A Methodist , Presbyitarian and Missouri Synod Lutheran , all get married wanting the same thing from their wives. All want to come home too a clean house , a hot home cooked meal and the trash taken out. After a day the Methodist man as newly wed explained nothing happened, the second day the trash was out and a meal was prepared. but not until the third day was the house cleaned. The Presbytarian said he came home to the trash out and nothing else the first day, and the 2nd day he had the hot meal and finally the house was cleaned on the third day. The Missouri Synod Lutheran man said he saw nothing done at the house for 2 days, No Hot Meal, No Trash Out, No cleaned House, But finally after the swelling went down a little in his eyes on the 3rd day , he did see the trash was taken out..

I had a heated discussion with my boss and another manager at work about their wish to ban the evil  'assault' weapons and high capacity mags as reasonable regulations. 

 

My tactic is to turn it on them and ask what makes them think they have the right to dictate to me, a law abiding citizen, what I can and can't have, especially rights afforded to me by the Constitution.  I ask them if this is not the definition of tyranny?   

 

I ask if they also want to ban Jet Skis and ATVs as they cause more deaths than any 'assault' weapon and yet there is no 'reason' for someone to have them. 

 

It always ends with the same non answer - " Well (stutter,stammer, stutter) I just don't think anybody needs them and that's my opinion. "

89 Well (stutter,stammer, stutter)I just don't think anybody needs them and that's my opinion. " I've had exactly that conversation. I make sure to follow that statement of theirs with, "Your opinion. That's nice. You still have explained why your opinion is more important than mine." Don't worry, you'll get more silence in return.

91 Piers Morgan and Jesse "Where did the body go" Ventura should heve attracted any fuckhead seeking missile in the world. If only there were such a weapon. The world would be a better place.

92 Polynikes, You need moral highground, logic and reason mean nothing to those people. Obama wants to ban Jews from owning these weapons. Which is what hitler did. Why do they support hitler's anti-Jew policy? That is an example. Watch Ben Shappiro on piers Morgan. Shappiro rightly brings up, "why do white kids at sandy hook deserve more protection than black kids in Chicago? Piers, why don't you care about black kids in Chicago?" Except dont let them skip out of it. Once you use emotivism against them, you open the door to logic, "maybe we shouldn't let our feelings decide social policy? Lets use lOgic and reason instead."

93 re: opinions I point out to them that opinions need a basis in fact. What they have regarding guns are beliefs - which require no factual basis. Which, you know, pisses them off. But in a good way.

Who is this 'Morgan' fellow of which you-all speak? I have just arrived here from the planet 'WhereZit' and am not yet 'tuned' into what/who/where is the most gratifying.

Is He someone I should be getting * 'real close' * to?

We're all really radioactive, you know and *this* is how we show affection, and good feelings.......

95 Why don't we watch your other interviews Piers Morgan?   Because you're an arrogant, uninformed buffoon in all of them, fawning over those you agree with, and rudely argumentative with the left.

Because no matter who you're interviewing, you're still a criminal fraud from a tired old island whose employment by CNN remains a matter of mystery unless it is for your willingness to spout the right lies.

Because, when all is said and done, Robin Leach did it first and better years ago.

96 I read the words preening d-bag and thought it was going to be about Joe Scarborough, the last true conservative.

97 Gun owners  are  becoming the new oppressed blacks of the  pre-civil rights movement era.  Maybe we should adopt strategies and slogans from the civil rights movement.

We shouldn't be judged by the things we possess, but on the content of our character.

98 that was wonderful.  Bracing, invigorating even.  Begging for a beneficient police state.  Insisting others be as unprepared.  We the sheeple.

99 Piers Morgan is an arrogant idiot!  Imagine if the BBC hired a Texan journalist to trash talk the UK...how do you think that would go over in London...Piers?
