Mr. Eye, I Believe You’ve Already Met Mr. Finger.

In case you had any remaining doubts about the Bizarro universe in which we now live…
Call out a general for being a liar and willing Bush shill? Get condemned by an overwhelming majority of the Congress.
Call any troops who oppose the war “phony soldiers”? Get commended by the wingnut caucus (at the very least).
I personally think this is less about protecting Brother Rush’s ample pilonoidal backside than it’s about provoking howls of outrage from the progressive blogosphere and its handful of congressional friends.
Quite frankly, it would not surprise me if enough Bush Dogs voted for it to get it passed, just to spite us crazy hippies who give them so much grief. And then the Democrats will be completely surprised and mystified when their base sits on its hands next year.
It is also worth noting that instead of showing support for MoveOn, about half the Senate Dems and a large majority of House Dems chose to stab them in the back instead. Wanna bet that the Republicans will do the same to Rush? If so, please e-mail me right away so we can exchange PayPal info.
