When it comes to making themselves look like imbeciles, liberals have no equal. It has quickly become obvious that Barbara Walters’ The View has become the New York Mets of the liberal mainstream media, calling in relief pitchers whose incompetence merely throws gasoline on the fire that passes for liberal intellectual thought.
First we had Starr Jones spewing her nonsensical comments for all to hear. She was followed by intellectual giant Rosie O’Donnell whose seemingly daily rants were the epitome of arrogant and insolent ignorance. We will recall that O’Donnell felt betrayed that the show’s token conservative sacrificial lamb, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, had not defended her idiotic rants. Apparently, liberals not only want to freely spew their foolishness on captive audiences, they also want to be stroked and defended for doing so.
Just when O’Donnell spared us all by marching off that show thereby raising the nation’s collective I.Q. ten points in the process, we get her replacement in the form of ultraliberal celebrity Whoopie Goldberg, not exactly known for deep thought and rational analysis herself.
Demonstrating that attacking liberals’ logic is about as easy as finding Hillary Clinton a bit deceptive, we only need look at Goldberg’s recent comments regarding Michael Vick and abortion.
“It’s a Cultural Thing”
Not two minutes into her new View gig, Whoopie informed us that we should somehow view what Michael Vick did differently because dog fighting is “part of his cultural upbringing”http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/
2007/09/05/AR2007090502493.html
Acknowledging that this detestable activity involved torturing and murdering dogs that did not do well, Goldberg observed that she would see the story differently if Vick came from, say, New York, where hanging and electrocuting dogs is apparently not as acceptable.
Despite her claims to be close to PETA, that organization has roundly criticized Goldberg’s remarks. PETA President Ingrid Newkirk wrote to Goldberg urging her “not to excuse dogfighters as having some cultural blind spot” while pointing out that Vick’s codefendants testified that Vick was present when eight dogs were hanged, watching as they struggled to free themselves, and when three did not die from slow suffocation, they were drowned.” Newkirk urged Goldberg to see that “Animals are as vulnerable to abuse as children are and they need your voice more than Vick does right now” (link above).
Goldberg complained that her comments were twisted around and taken out of context, but the truth is that she was demonstrating the unique liberal big mouth/empty head skill of defending and rationalizing indefensible behavior with cultural, social and typically leftist rubbish. Torturing and murdering animals, for any reason, especially for sport, is a barbaric atrocity that should not be tolerated in any civilized society, much less rationalized, justified, condoned or even explained away by any sensible person.
It is reported that Goldberg attempted to demonstrate that people were hypocritical for criticizing Vick while accepting the Asian people kill dogs and cats for food. This secondary comment apparently drew fire from the Asian-American community who declared it prejudicial and racist. You see, boys and girls, when foolish liberals try to explain their moronic rants, they only do so with further moronic rants, thereby digging themselves deeper into the hole of imbecilic logic.
Abortion is an Honorable Thing to Do
No sooner had Goldberg spewed her mindless drivel about Vick when she decided to take offense to an innocuous abortion comment from View token sacrificial lamb, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, who dared to publicly express her pro-life views. When Hasselbeck spoke favorably of a Hillary Clinton proposal that might result in a reduction in abortions, Goldberg went off on Haseelbeck, telling her to “back off a bit” since “very few people want to have abortions” adding that Americans should “revere” women who have them because it is “the hardest decision that a woman ever has to make.” http://www.davidlimbaugh.com/
As David Limbaugh correctly argues, Goldberg’s comments are illogical and foolish on a number of counts. First, she implies that only people who have been in a position to have an abortion have the moral authority to address the issue, which is as asinine a notion as one can hear. Following this load of mental rubbish, we can see why Goldberg defended Vick, since she implied that nobody can judge him since they have not walked a mile or, for that matter, hanged a dog, in his cultural shoes.
Limbaugh further points out that Goldberg’s idiotic comment that few people want to have abortions is simply incorrect given the fact that nearly 50 million children have been aborted since the Roe v. Wade decision in 1973.
Where Limbaugh hits it out of the park, however, is in regard to Goldberg’s stupid comment that women who have had an abortion should be “revered” for their “difficult decision”. As he points out, abortion champions tell us everyday that abortion is merely the elimination of a blob which is nowhere near a human being. If, as these fools argue, abortion is not ending life, then what is so “difficult” about the decision and why should people who make that decision be “revered”?
Do we honor people who have a tooth pulled or a bunion pierced or do we even call that decision difficult? Of course not, and that is because we do not think that deciding to remove a tooth or pierce a bunion is a big deal, just as abortion champions claim an abortion is no big deal. You cannot have your cake and eat it as well. If abortion is nothing more than removing a wart then why honor those who do it? If abortion is something profoundly more then why argue that it is merely like removing a wart?
Thus is the world of liberal morons like Whoopie Goldberg, who given an audience and fame by a liberal establishment brimming with self-righteous and arrogant hypocrisy and selective tolerance, uses that forum to remind anyone with brains and ears just how asinine and imbecilic liberal logic really is.
Conclusion
This should be no news scoop, but another liberal celebrity made an ass of herself with her big mouth and empty logic. No, it was not Rosie O’Donnell or Kathy Griffin this time but, as she has done before, Whoopie Goldberg, whose penchant for stupid commentary does not run far behind.
I do not know what is more tragic; that fools like Whoopie Goldberg find it necessary to defend their views with mindless logic, or that this increasingly pathetic society even provides them with any forum to open their big mouths revealing their empty minds.
Barry Manilow refused to appear on The View because he considers Hasselbeck’s views “dangerous” and “offensive”. Apparently the guy who writes the songs thinks that Goldberg’s mouth is kind and sweet and her views gentle and deep.
Complaining about the backlash regarding her Vick views, Goldberg observed that: "Maybe it's a little indicative of why people don't really say stuff anymore." No, Philosopher Goldberg, it is indicative of why Whoopie should not really say stuff anymore.
