Wolf Blitzer sucks

I caught Wolf Blitzer twice on CNN today. At noon, he interviewed Mintz, the fighter pilot from Bush's Alabama reserve unit. Mintz was a man of few words so Blitzer got to do most of the talking. When Mintz said he never met Bush in Alabama, Wolf said three times that "James 'Bill' Calhoun specifically remembers seeing him there." Without noting the fact that Calhoun's claim has been completely discredited because he says he saw him there BEFORE he was assigned to Alabama. Sheesh.

Wolf ended the interview by asking rhetorically, "But isn't the last word that George W. Bush was given an honorable discharge?"

Well, no, Wolf, that's not the last word. The question is, did he deserve it? Or did he get the special treatment that has marked his entire life up to and including today?

And can you IMAGINE Wolf ending an interview with the Swiffer Boat Liars by saying, "Isn't the last word that John Kerry received three Purple Hearts?" Nope, I can't either.

Around dinner time he had Ron Brownstein of the LA Times on & repeated the same stupid line:

BLITZER: Here's the bottom line, though. The president did get an honorable discharge from the Air National Guard from his military service.

BROWNSTEIN: Absolutely. Both the Democrats...

BLITZER: No one -- no one is questioning that.



I hate Wolf Blitzer & the rest of the faux journalists.

Blitzer is much much worse in 2016 than he was in 2004. Not only is he senile and forgetful, he is biased, bigoted and unfair. He's gotta go CNN, really, really.
