The ever so fair & balanced MSNBC news media: “Them Tea Party folks r Nazis!”

This is my favorite example of the near-total idiocy that can be demonstrated by some on the left, so far this week. It even beats anything I saw on CBC (‘tho the week’s not over yet).  It’s presented by the fantastic Media Research Center —one of my favorite web sites.

See if you can detect the total logical idiocy of MSNBC anchor Dylan Ratigan and his allusion to Nazis in the Tea Party movement, as he exemplifies it with the words of one Tea Party conventioneer.  This brainy and nuanced betrayal of liberal-left stupidity earned Ratigan, and the entire MSNBC news ditch (because they ostensibly have adults running things, who in turn hire other adult editors, and what not), our not-at-all-coveted PTBC Oozing Brain Poo Award of the Week: 

On Monday’s ‘The Dylan Ratigan Show’ on MSNBC, host Dylan Ratigan began the program by ranting: “The tea party has a bit of an integrity problem, as everybody from birthers, to open racists, to outright Nazis are actually on the team. And no one involved, including its leadership, seems to mind that fact.” To justify his outrageous smear of the political movement, Ratigan cited one woman who attended the weekend tea party convention in Nashville, Tennessee: “I just couldn’t sit down anymore and not do anything. Because it reminded me of what happened during the rein of Hitler.”

So if a Tea Party conventioneer says the increasingly dictatorial and totalitarian and socialist Obama administration reminds her of what she’s learned of the Hitler regime, which was dictatorial, totalitarian, and socialist, then the TEA PARTY movement is the one that’s full of Nazis. 

See how that works?  If you do, you just might be a progressive.  In fact, an idiot.  And an outright bigot.  In addition to being a total ass,  And a loon.

And these people get paid, and I don’t?  This makes no sense.  Maybe they’re right about capitalism not working!
