Lee Cary at The American Thinker analyzes Media Matters’ twisted defense of Obama’s recent speech where he played the victim card and compared the critique of his failed policies to the suffering and vilification of Dr. Marin Luther King Jr.
Media Matters vs. the Gateway Pundit on Obama as MLK
Accepting Media Matters’ premise in its criticism of Jim Hoft of the Gateway Pundit requires what a politician once called a “willing suspension of disbelief.”
