Jonah Goldberg uses tsunami tragedy as excuse for petty UN bashing

[Telly Savalas]

I found this column in this morning's Kansas City Star. It's truly disgusting that this partisan hack is exploiting such monumental human suffering to try to score points for his twisted far right ideology.

Let him know what you think. According to the KC Star, his email address is: [e-mail]

2. Jonah Goldberg is one of the worst of the right-wing self-appointed

pundits. He writes for the National Review and is the son of Lucianne Goldberg, another right-winger with a radio show, who pimped the Monica Lewinski story. Son Jonah has long been on record as loathing the U.N. Anything he writes can be consigned to the little paper roll in your bathroom.

3. One non sequitur after another

Is the man high? He says "we'll let the 'we' slide", because he refuses to believe Eglund wasn't referrring to the world, and not just the US; he compares the amount of UN aid to private aid, as if the UN had a funding source separate from the member states (and of course, counting the American contribution to the UN in American aid totals); he states that the UN is an institution dedicated to reigning in American power and is generally evil, and notes that people bring up UNICEF and disaster relief--and then just brushes it off. How hard up is Kansas City for commentary?

I love how he cites Sammon as a credible source!

What a maroon! Dumber than dirt, and put into his trivial little role as a favor to mommy. How pathetic a creature he is.
