Clay Waters dedicated a June 28 MRC TimesWatch post to whining that that a “smug” Ben Smith of Buzzfeed.com appeared on a New York Times web video, in which he was “mocking those ‘not very bright’ conservatives for saying ‘totally insane…wildly over-the-top things’ such as claiming ‘America was doomed’ or that they were ‘prepared to go to war against radical liberalism.'”
Waters was careful to mention that some of those conservatives saying “totally insane…wildly over-the-top things” are his MRC co-workers. Like Dan Gainor, who was raging that Chief Justice John Roberts was a “power mad psychopath” and a “lying scumbag.” Or his boss, Brent Bozell, who ranted that that Roberts is “a traitor to his philosophy,” whatever that means.
But that would have required telling the truth, which the MRC does not want when it involves the truth being told about conservatives.
