Not even close.

But don’t tell that to the dingbat left.

“Letterman questioned [McCain] about Palin’s claim that Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama “palled around with terrorists,” and McCain backed her up, saying his opponent need to better explain his relationship with former Weather Underground activist William Ayers.

“Did you not have a relationship with Gordon Liddy?” Letterman asked about Watergate burglar G. Gordon Liddy.

McCain said he knew him. Then, after a commercial break, McCain said, “I know Gordon Liddy. He paid his debt, he went to prison … I’m not in any way embarrassed to know Gordon Liddy.”

“You understand the same case could be made of your relationship with him as is being made with William Ayers?” Letterman said.

Game over. If Obama didn’t take the sting out of the Ayers nonsense in last night’s debate, Letterman just did it for him. Aren’t these the kinds of questions that journalists should be asking?”

Letterman’s a comedian, and not a particularly good one. But he’s also no historian – clearly. G. Gordon Liddy was a burglar,, Williams Ayers bombed buildings and only regretted not bombing more, thus a terrorist. Thus still, Liddy’s pals were likewise burglars, but they never planned to kill Non Commission Officers in an NCO club with a nail bomb.

The trouble with liberals like TChris, and Letterman is that they have a warped sense of comparison. They call evil good and good evil – something the Bible says about the wicked by the way.

Thus executed murderer Tookie Williams is a Saint, decorated war hero and former POW John McCain is a sinner and a cad.
