Deep thought Reference from Hanna-Barbera

Liberals love chronic long winded, nugatory, boring columnists who constantly repeat themselves and their limp reference points from the New York Times and Washington Post. Thomas "Flat Head" Friedman is amongst the left most admired and worst offenders.
Cartoon references help reinforce the left's two dimensional unreality and it is never PC to show a young Aussie Muslim Boy proudly holding a head. 

Note: The left's tender sensibilities seem to melt away if any offending images or stories can be found about Israelis or the Vast Rightwing Conspiracy. m/r

Meet the Jetstones :: SteynOnline

Further to yesterday's SteynPost on the Aussie schoolboy and the severed head he's holding, Sydney's Daily Telegraph calls out Opposition Leader Bill Shorten on his bizarre warning that Australians think twice before "using" that image.

The reason Mr Shorten feels he has to threaten his fellow citizens is because of the profound challenge that photograph poses to the multiculti delusions in which he and many others are so invested.

~On a related matter, Hawaii reader Gregory Hart writes:

I was watching a video of the August 8, 2014 New York Times interview of President Obama by Thomas L. Friedman when I experienced such a sense of deja vu (sorry, can't find the correct accent marks on this keyboard) that I thought I was experiencing a temporal lobe seizure. At approximately the 50:20 mark of the interview (I'll mercifully spare you from having to watch the whole interview), President Obama was lamenting the sad state of America's infrastructure and as an example compared it unfavorably to Singapore's airport. Like a trained seal, Friedman trumpeted out: "Like going from the Jetsons to the Flintstones!"

Even by the standards of us columnists, Thomas L Friedman is a lazy old tosser. Even when he's interviewing the President of the United States, Friedman can't get beyond Jetsons and Flintstones. Here's page 313 of my New York Timesbestseller After America (personally autographed copies of which are exclusively available, etc, etc):

In the early years of the century, in many columns filed from the VIP lounges of the world's airports, Thomas L Friedman, the in-house "thinker" at The New York Times, had an analogy to which he was especially partial. From December 2008:

'Landing at Kennedy Airport from Hong Kong was, as I've argued before, like going from the Jetsons to the Flintstones.'
