'Hottest Ring in Hell' for Messing with Michelle
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 06/11/2008 2:59:11 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

My late father, who worked with the toughest kids in a Brooklyn high school, used to say that when a person's reaction is disproportionate to the stimulus, something else is causing it. So when Obama campaign co-chair Dick Durbin (D-Illinois) dramatically reserved the "hottest ring in hell" for those who would go after Michelle Obama, my antennae went up. Interviewing him, MSNBC's Norah O'Donnell also seemed a bit taken aback by the forcefulness of Durbin's response.

O'Donnell broached the subject by quoting from Maureen Dowd's NY Times column of this morning:

It’s good news for Obama that Hillary’s out of the race. But it’s also bad news. Now Republicans can turn their full attention to demonizing Michelle Obama. Mrs. Obama is the new, unwilling contestant in Round Two of the sulfurous national game of “Kill the witch.”

So Durbin is some kind of administrator in Hell? Very interesting.

Not as yet, but I am sure that Satan, has that office ready for him!

The same “Turban” Durbin who compared the treatment of Gitmo prisoners to those of the Nazi’s, Soviet Gulags, and Polpot’s Cambodia?
