MSM is "Stuck on Stupid"

Not that it’s any news to anyone with even a modicum of sense.

But it was really cathartic to hear someone articulate it.

Even with Hurricane Rita bearing down on the Gulf states, some in the press are still hungering for more “here’s where Bush went wrong” stories. When being quizzed by the MSM at a press conference yesterday, General Honore cut through all the partisan crapola and got straight to the heart of the matter:

“You are stuck on stupid, I’m not going to answer that question”

Check out the video here at Political Teen.

What a great quote. Really sums up what’s happening to a lot of folks on both sides of the political fence. But Ex-Donkey really put a point on it: ” The more this catches on, the more pissed off the media is going to get.” Count on that.

Honore’s looking ahead. To handle the job at hand, which is to protect human lives. Not to publicly point fingers at what went wrong a few weeks ago. He’s trying to encourage the press to do their jobs: to get out a clear message which will help those who will be impacted by this incoming storm.

Ahhh, a little responsibility.

Take note, kids. You might not see it again for a long time.

But you will DEFINITELY be hearing this phrase.

Vodkapundit, Instapundit and Michelle Malkin are among the first to herald the new catchphrase.
Radioblogger has the transcript of the press briefing.
SluBlog updated the “cup ‘o shut the fuck up” WWII image to fit the new phrase.
Ace Of Spades points out that Celine Dion is SOS as well.
(I could list a lot more links to celebs who are SOS. Hrmmm, maybe a future post…)

UPDATE: There is now a Stuck On Stupid blog! Funny, I thought they already had one, it’s called Daily Kos. (Hat tip: Michelle Malkin)
