Brian Williams of NBC news just compared the new Iranian President to the Founding Fathers
NBC Nightly News ^ | 6/30/05 | Self

Anyone else just see the NBC report on the possibility that the new Iranian President may have been one of the kidnappers in the 1979 hostage crisis?

Brian Willaims and Andrea Mitchell bantering back and forth with Williams stating: "After all, some certianly regarded the founding fathers as terrorists, and the student uprising was well supported all across Iran." Or words extremely similar to that.

Maddest I've been yet on this issue, even if this isn't the guy, Williams and Mitchell's comments were way over the line, even by what we are used to out of the MSM

And so damn smug with the delivery of the commentary. Stating they had plenty in common as both were "Revolutionaries".

Well, is he wrong.

Aminedejad is nothing like an American founding father.

But what is a founding father, a founding father is a man who contributes to the formation of a country/government.

And news stories now say Aminadejad was one of the hostage takers in 1979, meaning, by Iranian Islamic Republic standards, he is one of their founding fathers. It's just he was a founding father for something that is evil.

Geeze, if I thought it would do any good to call any of the loser ABC networks and complain, I'd do it. Like Rush said today, they don't even give a damn that they're viewership is tanking more everyday!

But on second thought, I may have to call and give someone an earful anyway, just to make me feel better....

Memo to Brian Williams of NBC "News": Dear Mr. Williams, with all due respect, please go fornicate yourself. (Williams is the fecal mass on the right)

Sure. A thug Islamosfascist torturer and murderer is JUST LIKE George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Alexander Hamilton.

The Founding Fathers were not perfect men, and some of them owned slaves, but they were not terrorists as we understand that term. Why does this even have to be said?

My2Cents just compared Brian Williams to Radio Moscow during the old Soviet era.

Dean stated that the insurgents in Iraq are fighting for their country.

We see now the 'talking points'.

Even if there is anything resembling an analogy, this guy would be more akin to a participant in the Boston Tea Party than as a founding father.
