Ever read the Paper?

Apparently, Andy McCarthy, lives up to his last name in being a man who can even manage to make Cliff May look rational hasn't read the papers this morning.

Writing at where Dear Leader Street & Dear Leader Avenue meet the L'il tailgunner says:

RE: ANNAN SAYS ACCEPT HEZBOLLAH [Andy McCarthy]
I'm still dizzy from this (posted by Rich yesterday afternoon). Let's say we substitute the words "bin Laden" of "al Qaeda' or "Zarqawi" for "Hezbollah" in Kofi Annan's reported remarks. Do the sentences not still work all the same? After all, they too have been expressing the opinion that they don't want "interference from outsiders." They can also be said, for certain, to be "a force in society."

This is why the U.N. is dead: even with regard to the most abject evil -- groups and individuals who target civilians for gruesome murder as a political strategy -- Annan and his ilk are incapable of rendering an informed moral judgment.


Um, Andy:

After years of campaigning against Hezbollah, the radical Shiite Muslim party in Lebanon, as a terrorist pariah, the Bush administration is grudgingly going along with efforts by France and the United Nations to steer the party into the Lebanese political mainstream, administration officials say.


Now, either Andy comes out against this move and decries the Bush Administration's betrayal, or he crawls under a rock for a few days.

That is what most people would be expected to do.

But we are talking Jonah & the Knobs here so by this afternoon I imagine we will see something like this:

A BRILLIANT TACTICAL MOVE [Andy McCarthy]
At first glance it would appear that the Bush Administration is making a mistake in agreeing to deal with Hezbollah as a political party. However, I believe this is actually a brilliant move to undermine the U.N. and Annan by actually not dealing with Hezbollah under U.N. auspices but upon Bush's own devinely inspired manner. All hail this strategically brilliant move by this most blessed man. I love you Dear Leader. Posted at 1:13 p.m.
