Bannon the shameless
Bannon campaigning for – of course – Roy Moore a couple of days ago:
“Judge Roy Moore has more honor and integrity in that pinkie finger than your entire family has in its whole DNA,” Bannon said in his 30-minute speech at Oak Hollow Farm. “You hid behind your religion. You went to France to be a missionary while guys were dying in rice paddies in Vietnam. Do not talk to me about honor and integrity,” he said, referencing Romney’s Mormon faith.
What? What?
I saw the clip on the news that evening, and was duly amazed. “While guys were dying in rice paddies in Vietnam”? Really? Did he simply forget that he worked for President Bone Spurs? Who stayed in New York to be a sleazy real estate tycoon while guys were dying in rice paddies in Vietnam?
Well he did say “Do not talk to me about honor and integrity.” Indeed.
In no universe do you get to be called Judge anything if you’ve been twice removed from the bench.
It’s been infuriating, hearing reporter after reporter refer to Moore as “the judge”. He is not a judge, certainly not now. They don’t refer to Jones by some title he used to have. Moore calls himself “Judge”, but why the heck do reporters go along with it?
