Political hypocrisy

| August 1, 2012 7:41 AM

Ryan Zinke’s formation of an anti-Obama super PAC is the rankest form of hypocrisy. He blasts President Obama for making political hay out of the bin Laden situation but somehow ignores the George Bush “Mission Accomplished” fiasco.

President Obama made a simple announcement. George Bush commandeered an aircraft carrier and a fighter jet, at considerable taxpayer expense, so he could strut across the flight deck and proclaim a blatant lie.

And you, Mr. Zinke, are also trading on your minor notoriety for political reasons, just in case you don’t get it.
