Short media roundup

The right-wingers have tamed down a bit the past few days. They've spent a lot of time venting at Media Matters for pointing out their hate-mongering, but little time giving us more ammunition against them. But, a few interesting points from the usual suspects.

Bill O'Reilly can't decide... is Sean Penn anti-American, or not? Somewhere, deep inside, you know he longs for his Inside Edition days. Oh, and the ACLU are a bunch of traitors... again. Yawn, Bill, get some new shtick, eh?

Pharmie-popping Rush Limbaugh (lamely) jokes on Muslims after a story reveals that British prisons plan to reorient toilets in cells as part of a refurbishment plan... which also happens to respond to complaints from Muslims. It is disrespectful in Islam to excrete bodily waste while directly facing or opposing the direction of Mecca. Of course, Rush takes it one step into ridiculousness.

Finally, what would a media segment be without a comment from that massive tool, that Weiner, Michael Savage? He seems to think that Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton would stand against America, should another attack occur on U.S. soil. The best line ever from the weenie Weiner: "I think they'd march thousands of us into the hands of the enemy in order to gain what they would think would be a long-term peace." Hmm... Bush has sent hundreds of thousands of soldiers "into the hands of the enemy in order to gain what he would think would be a long-term peace" ...hasn't he? Or are we watching two different wars?
