Newsweek's "CW Watch" is to news as bubble gum is to haute cuisine.

NewWeak should give itself a down arrow as well for all the doom and gloom content in its April 7th issue.

What a hypocrite! Here's what she said about Bill Clinton when she gave him an award for peace.

"Let me tell you something about Bill Clinton: It was like the Beatles deplaning. It was hysteria," Garofalo told the Associated Press, describing the ex-president's reception at a "Seeds for Peace" dinner she hosted in New York on Jan. 15.

About five hundred civilians died in ninety separate incidents as a result of NATO bombing in Yugoslavia last year, Human Rights Watch said in a new report released today. Operation Iraqi Freedom killed about twice as many to free more people the question should be to Gawdawfulho just when does it go from giving a president a prize for peace to demonizing a president as being as bad as Hussein. The anwer is , of course, when it goes from a Dem to a Republican.

I sent that off to Fox and Friends this morning.

Yeah, that was my reaction, too. The unmitigated gall of these creeps to disparage someone else's idiot prediction, while remaining silent on their own, historic-level whopper is unforgiveable.

Dishonest left-wing pieces of sh*t... do they really think they could slip this one by? Their mailbag should be full already.

I thought that too! This is great that they are saying this, but never forget this nugget from mrc.org;

+ Conventional Idiocy “Steadfast, but his war cluelessly flings open the gates of hell, making any sort of victory Pyrrhic.” -- Newsweek’s April 7 “Conventional Wisdom” column, explaining why President Bush deserved a “down arrow” for the week. “British P.M. can actually explain this thing coherently. He’s Churchill to Bush’s Red Buttons.” -- The next item in the same column, assigning an “up arrow” to British Prime Minister Tony Blair. “Tells Meet the Press just before the war, ‘We will be greeted as liberators.’ An arrogant blunder for the ages.” -- The next item in the same column, assigning a “down arrow” to Vice President Dick Cheney. + “Patriots” Who Use Fellow

I think the left wishes that Garofalo would just go away. She is an embarassment to them.

"Seeds for Peace"

That's all that was left. They smoked the leaves and stems.
