Collins: Palin a 'Moose-Murderer'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 12/06/2008 4:37:49 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Though O.J. Simpson was sentenced for robbery and related crimes yesterday, thirteen years ago he walked on a double-murder charge. That might be an isolated case, but Gail Collins apparently believes there are tens of millions of murderers roaming free in America. We call them by a different name: hunters.

Collins made her inane hunting = murder analogy in her column today in the course of taking one more gratuitous swipe at Sarah Palin. The gist of "The Senate, Snowe and Dinkytown" is that in a Senate where Democrats will fall one or two seats short of the magic 60, the few moderate Senate Republicans will play a crucial role. Collins focuses in particular on Olympia Snowe of Maine. And while wondering why McCain didn't choose her as his running mate, the columnist gets off her smear on Palin, and hunters in general [emphasis added]:

But then again...it's also very important to note what she didn't kill...her own child.

Exactly!

Good comparison.

Killing her child WOULD make up for all those “crimes” - in the minds of every Obama voter at least.

But killing animals is absolutely wrong for leftists.... And killing unborn babies is a sacrament.

Gail Collins is a mental midget with a liberal psychosis.

If I see her name on any piece I just skip on by b/c I know it won’t be worth reading.

The world of liberal psychotics:

HUNTING = evil

BABY-KILLING = good

OK, thanks Gail, I think I understand

We all know why you hate Sarah Palin with a white hot passion

"Who’s Gail Collins?"

Good question. Never heard of her, and if that's her photo posted above, have never seen her either. Next question: Why should we care what this apparently warped, unknown person thinks of Gov. Palin?

> Vegetarians are never happy because as hard as they try to make soy or tofu look and taste like meat, it still sucks. You will never find meat-eaters trying to make beef look like a tomato. We are happy with foods being what they are supposed to be.

My nine-year-old daughter is a “vegetarian”, but she has it all figured out. “Except for hamburgers and chicken nuggets.”

Classic!

I've actually had Obama voters tell me that Mitt Romney should have been the VP pick.

They were never going to vote for McCain, no matter WHO he picked - but because their guy won, now they're instant experts on all things politics.

I'm not an admirer of Howard Stern, but he's got a recent piece of work on Obama voters in Harlem, and there are a great many gems in the piece. Here's one:

Howard Stern: "It's so ridiculous to argue politics with anyone, because most - I'd say 99% of the people don't know what the f--- they're talking about..."

By "99% of the people", Stern meant "Gail Collins"... :-)

Now you need to photoshop one of Gail with a milk moustache that is captioned "Got Barack?"

I'm thinking of starting a weekly award for "journalists" called the "Got Barack?" Award. We'll all know that the milk moustache isn't milk...
