Is there a doctor, even a fake one, anywhere in the neighborhood? (Liberals, in a typical panic these days, may not notice the subtle distinction.)

The darnedest rash of severely skinned knees has invaded our shores.

Why? you ask.

Because Muslim-terrified journalists, are running for their lives, falling over each other’s blue-veined ankles to get the story first.

These dear friends of vaguely liberal persuasion have been tripping over each other while on a one-channel mission:

From New York to Los Angeles, they are avidly trying to ferret out fairy-tale explanations for the Muslim Monster, Maj. Howdy-Doody Hasan’s slaughter of 13 of his American enemies a week ago this afternoon.

It just can’t be because he’s a radical Islamist, they keep reassuring each other. If we write that, another Muslim dumbkopf will blow us up. These days, a Muslim radical never lets Americans know who he wants to destroy next.

Something in the Peanut Butter?

For seven consecutive days, the boy and girl journalists at The New York Times and the Los Angeles Times have engaged in an old-fashioned picnic game, a burlap sack race, to see which newspaper can belch up the greater number of unbelievable excuses for Howdy-Doody’s Monster Mash.

Take this morning’s shameful page 1 story in the Los Angeles Times, the newspaper’s latest attempt to explain to their dim readers that just because Howdy-Doody is a Muslim extremist, that is no reason to blame his Muslim extremism for the Fort Hood massacre.

I mean, have a heart.

Maybe he was allergic to nuts in the peanut butter he ate as a 10-year-old. That has been known to cause Afghan Muslims to commit mayhem.Or was the peanut butter 10 years old?

But, cool it.

Hey, baby, Muslims in America have been under a lot of gosh-darned pressure since 19 of their widely admired radical brethren tried to level America’s East Coast eight years ago.

Since Howdy-Doody Hasan went on his spree, both The New York Times and the Los Angeles Times have become Pulitzer-eligible by unearthing excuses that even left-wing extremists can’t swallow without giggling — and everybody knows left-wingers had their sense of humor surgically removed at birth.

Read About It in the Enquirer

If the L.A. Times still were a respectable newspaper instead of the Southern California branch of Whores for Obama, with less credibility than the National Enquirer, it would spank lead reporter Teresa Watanabe and send her back to the Religion Desk. Then it would hand a six-month suspension to the other reporter, Duke Helfand, because he is older and should have known better.

The story was an apology for Howdy-Doody’s shot at glory last week, with a special dig inserted at conservative Americans, who are driving an anti-Muslim agenda. That is what passes for sound journalism at the L.A. Times.

As for The New York Times, the national newspaper of record, has been carring the kind of bilge you only used to find in The Onion.

Seeking perhaps to deflect blame to Philadelphia Presbyterians, the way Suave Swish Obama did so successfully last year, here is what one Muslim matron told the Times:

“I don’t understand why the Muslim-American community has to take responsibility for him,” said Ingrid Mattson, the president of the Islamic Society of North America. “The Army has had at least as much time and opportunity to form and shape this person as the Muslim community.

You go, girl. Gotta be the Presbyterians’ fault.

Later in the same story, the Times said:

“Muslim leaders, advocates and military service members have taken pains to denounce the shooting and distance themselves from Major Hasan. They make the point that his violence is no more representative of them than it is of other groups to which he belongs, including Army psychiatrists.

Don’t go anywhere. I am going to email Flip Wilson. I will bet he tells me that the devil made Howdy-Doody do the dirty deed. Why haven’t Times reprters thought of that?
