More Red Bell Bottomed Moonbattery

Keith Olbermann steadfastly refuses to take off those red bell bottoms. This time he’s taken to dismissing the latest example of jihad in America as “an attempt by the Bush administration to terrorize Americans with phony threats.”


Hmmmmm, shades of Rosie O’Donnell’s now infamous “Gulf of Tonkin, Google it,” about the British sailors illegally kidnapped by Iran last month.

OLBERMANN: "And one other note today. The ultimate premise of the war in Iraq and the ultimate premise, certainly, of the Republican presidential campaign ahead, counterterrorism. The FBI claims it has broken up a plot to attack Fort Dix in New Jersey. The flaw, though, in the breathless reporting of the purported terror cell, the bureau infiltrated the six-person group after its members took video of themselves practicing with assault weapons, brought the tape to a photo store, and had it transferred to a DVD.

"The details of the supposed plot don't seem to hold together that well either, though that did not stop extensive and entirely credulous coverage on TV, the Internet, in print today. The men supposedly had plans to gain access to the base disguised as pizza delivery guys, then cut the power somehow, they, quote, "hit four, five, or six Humvees and light the whole place, and retreat without any losses." And take the tape of yourselves practicing and have it copied at PhotoMat. In other words, the FBI has arrested six morons."

Uhhhhh, not to put too fine a point on this, but the nineteen jihadists who successfully flew three jetliners into both Twin Towers of the World Trade Center and the Pentagon were also “morons” by Keith’s own definition! At least they were right up through September 10th!

So too was Richard Reid (the “shoebomber”), Jose Padilla, the Lackawanna Six, the members of the Detroit, Potland and Seattle terror cells that were busted...you get the idea.

As the good folks over at Olbermann Watch said, “All we can say is that it requires a special degree of malice to believe that any time a terror attack is successful its the U.S. officials who are the "morons" but when these same officials prevent an attack its just a scam to "terrorize" Americans cooked up by the Bush administration in cahoots with law enforcement officials and "the media" to arrest "morons" who are never a "serious" threat."

All I can say is, “There’s an Olbermann Watch?”

WoW! That really is a public service. Their moniker should be, “We watch him so you don’t have to,” not that many do now-a-days, but it’s a helluva public service anyway.
