Dick Durbin, can I call you dick

Picking out the powerline article here as one source of many about just how dumb Dick is.

“I have learned from my statement that historical parallels can be misused and misunderstood. I sincerely regret if what I said caused anyone to misunderstand my true feelings: our soldiers around the world and their families at home deserve our respect, admiration and total support.”


Text enhanced by me.

So now, after saying i didn't say they were Nazi's just acting like Nazi's he has the Chutzpah to accuse the folks who disagree with him of causing a misunderstanding. I think his lack of an apology, and a lack of any serious rebuke from the center-left politically lays out his real feelings in black and white. I don't think anyone can doubt that


Finally, Durbin tells us that he has just now learned that comparing our soldiers to Nazis, Communists, and Pol Pot-type crazies "can be misused and misunderstood." Misused? What does that mean? By whom? Presumably Durbin means that al Jazeera et al. can "misuse" his statements to trumpet the claim that high-ranking American officials have conceded that the U.S. is just as bad as Nazi Germany. I'm not sure that's a "misuse"--it is what Durbin said--but if he has just now figured out that his statements can be used as propaganda by the enemy, he is much too stupid to be a United States Senator


To Stupid to be a United States Senator

Cut and dry
