How ironic is it for Pat Boone to write a column about "Gutter TV" on WorldNetDaily?
In his latest column, pop singer turned Tea Party patriot and Christian conservative champion Pat Boone complains about immoral TV shows like Bleep My Dad Says and The Hard Times of R.J. Berger.

Maybe Boone should actually read the rest of the website that publishes his column. Apparently Boone has no problem associating with a gutter website that publishes non-stop brain-damaging garbage:
- WND Books and the Western Journalism Center published a book titled The Case for Impeachment: Why Barack Hussein Obama Should Be Impeached to Save America that is a "thin, coloring book-sized tome -- 50 pages of large, widely spaced type that WND is selling for $19.95" and yet full of lies.
- David Kupelian, the managing editor of WND, recently wrote a WND book titled The Marketing of Evil, also full of >. That book to me sounds a lot more evil that CBS's new sitcom Bleep My Dad Says that's supposedly corrupting our morals and poisoning our children's minds.
- WND has
advocated rolling back immigration laws to the 1920s, and back then those laws were based on racism and eugenics, such as letting in more Western European immmigrants than those from other regions.
- Also baseless, unscientific fearmongering about vaccines. So lemme get this straight: raunchy TV is worse than not getting vaccinated? :jawdrop:

And many more examples at conwebblog and other articles about conwebwatch.

4. What's the ironic part?
A right wing nut writing a right wing column for a right wing rag. Thay's not the opposite of what I'd expect, it's exactly what I'd suspect. If you want to call it hypocritical that would make sense, but there's no iorny here.
