“Look, This Was Their Agincourt”

Sir Charles is, of course, referring to the terrorist fighters.

“But as you just said, Bill — you just said earlier that if you repeat the lie often enough, it will work,” Krauthammer said. “You just said with racism it didn’t work. This is transparently silly. You had one congressman, I wrote it down — Mike Doyle in the meeting with the vice president yesterday actually said, ‘We have negotiated with terrorists. The small group of terrorists has made it impossible for us to spend any money.’ Well, that’s a hell of a definition of terrorism. Normally a terrorist says, ‘I want you to convert. I want your daughter, I want your money, I want your submission.’ This guy says a bunch of terrorists in Congress have stopped us from spending money we don’t have. You think that’s an argument that will carry with the American people? I think not.”

(And O’Reilly really should stuff a sock in it. DAMN he’s annoying.)

   I don’t always agree with Krauthammer, but dismissing his arguments outright is just plain foolish.

   O’Reilly on the other hand . . .

   O’Reilly I stopped listening to YEARS ago. Not only is he annoying, he’s a jerk. His mouth overrides the times he’s right.

   I nominate Charles to lead some much-needed vocabulary lessons. Because “terrorist” doesn’t mean what they think it means.
