Leftie Fairytales
It's been said that a conservative is a liberal who's been mugged by reality. An opinionated NJ moonbat thinks a new version of the old saw is in order.
The only list a passenger might be on that would prevent him from boarding a plane is the 'no fly' list. Since Murphy ultimately got on the plane and flew to Newark, he self-evidently is not on that list.
I think the new version will have to be: A liberal is a conservative who got a close look at the Bush administration’s way of doing business.So blinded by hatred, this moonbat is gullible enough to believe anything. In this case it’s a yarn lefties are spinning about Walter F. Murphy, a professor emeritus of jurisprudence at Princeton. The story goes that Murphy was denied a boarding pass via curb-side check in for a flight to Newark because he’s been placed on the 'Terrorist Watch list' for a speech he once gave critical of George Bush.
The only list a passenger might be on that would prevent him from boarding a plane is the 'no fly' list. Since Murphy ultimately got on the plane and flew to Newark, he self-evidently is not on that list.
More likely, though, Murphy was a "selectee"--chosen for heightened security by a process that is part random, part based on a variety of factors, most of which are not publicly disclosed, but which are known to include holding a one-way ticket and purchasing a ticket in cash.Here’s an updated version of the adage. A liberal is someone who's been mugged by little girls and a moonbat is someone who believes leftie fairytales.
