Hersh: Bush Biggest Worry in World

If there were any doubt as to the degree to which the MSM loathes and distrusts President Bush, it should be dispelled by the performance of Sy Hersh on today's Hardball and the way he was applauded by Chris Matthews. At the end of Hersh's appearance, Matthews put this question to the investigative reporter:
"What's your biggest worry in the world? Is it Iran? Is it this administration going to war with Iran? Is it a civil war in Iraq? Is it Musharraf's inability to fight the Taliban on his own soil? What's your biggest worry?"
Hersh was nothing if not succinct: "George Bush."

Consider that for a moment. Not Iran, with its program to develop nuclear weapons. Not the fact that the resurgence of the Taliban could potentially give Al-Qaeda the platform for another attack on the US. No, the biggest threat to the world in Sy Hersh's mind is the President of the United States.
Did Matthews challenge this slander? To the contrary. Said the MSNBC host: "He's always fascinating because he's always right."

Hersh's biggest worry is finding the right burka to attract big burly Persian men.

Sy Hersh probably does fear "W". After all, he, Sy, is the greatest threat to the health, safety and welfare of the American people ~

If Bush is this guy's biggest worry what do you suppose the Mullahs think?

Of course Stalinist propagandist Hersh regards Bush as the biggest threat to his interests in the world. He is.

It amazes me how some people have such backward and inverted perspectives of the world.
They don't seem to recognize the real threat of evil in the world today, and actually resent those who fight evil.
Reminds me of the Biblical predictions that in the end times many would become haters of those who do good.

My biggest worry is that someone might actually be dumb enough to take Sy Hersh seriously. He is like a cartoon character.
To: governsleastgovernsbest
Chrissie was just playing up to his fans.
Both of them.

Sy is just the kind of guy who would curse Bush even as he was being beheaded by Islamic fanatics.

Didn't Hersh once claim that the US intentionally sent that KAL flight into Soviet air space? (The one they shot down back in the 80s.)
