These people need to be exposed for the socialists they are.
I researched the author, and found him to be nothing more than a Bono clone.
That type of journalism, to me is a waste of time.

Other than exposing his political views by this article, he
is nothing more than a dangerous fool, to be watched and watched closely.

"he is nothing more than a dangerous fool"

A fool, but most of what he said is what is commonly accepted by the Socialis...I mean Democratic party leaders.


A fool with fools following.

Interesting development. The author, Trevor Butterworth, set up a blog to exchange commentary on the article. On that blog he claims an unnamed poster at Free Republic "googled [Butterworth] and decided [he] was a Northern Ireland socialist." He goes on to say "it simply baffles me how they managed to conjure that up."

The poster has to be you, threeputindude, since this is the only thread on the article at FR, and you're the only one here who used the term "socialist."

Let's contemplate this for a second. The guy writes a piece about how superior the professional writers in the MSM are in editing and vetting facts, and mocking the pajamadeen for its amateurish hucksterism, and in his own commentary about one of those amateurs he manages to "conjure up" a reference to "northern Ireland," elide a reference to Bono, fail to mention that he actually is an Irishman, and make an unwarranted assumption that google's search engine was employed. He made a mess of the very quote he was attacking!

That's "professional" journalism for ya.
