Ted Turner: Starving sure beats being fat

During an interview by GQ’s Wil Hylton posted on the magazine’s blog on September 20, CNN founder Ted Turner blamed Fox News for pushing America into the Iraq war, tagging the conflict as “Rupert’s war,” and contended that he is more afraid of America’s possession of nuclear weapons than he is of rogue states like Iran obtaining such weapons. Turner: “I’m much more worried about our nuclear arsenal than theirs. Iran, at best, can get a few nuclear weapons. We have tens of thousands. We have to get rid of them.”

That’s not even the money quote. This is:

The CNN founder, who has a history of defending North Korea, ignoring the country’s problem of starvation, complimented its “thin” citizens as “healthy,” and suggested the despotic regime is of no more danger to America than Cleveland, Ohio. Turner: “They were nice to me. There weren’t a lot of fat people walking around. They were all thin. And being thin is healthier than being fat. … Their economy is not as big as Cleveland, Ohio! Does Cleveland, Ohio, pose a threat to the U.S.?”

Well, considering that Kooky Kucinich is from Cleveland and those idiots keep sending him back to Congress (after he bankrupted the town as their bumbling mayor), and that their river was so polluted that it repeatedly caught fire, then one could make a case that Cleveland is a threat, I suppose.

Of course the NorKoms were “thin”, Ted…they’re freakin’ starving over there! Guys like Turner and Soros go to show you that all the dollars in the world just don’t give you any sense.
