The New York Times editorial board endorsed Hillary Clinton for president Saturday. That is not surprising. But the way the board did it is.
In any normal election year, wed compare the two presidential candidates side by side on the issues. But this is not a normal election year, the Times admitted in its first sentence. It continued:
A comparison like that would be an empty exercise in a race where one candidate our choice, Hillary Clinton has a record of service and a raft of pragmatic ideas, and the other, Donald Trump, discloses nothing concrete about himself or his plans while promising the moon and offering the stars on layaway. (We will explain in a subsequent editorial why we believe Mr. Trump to be the worst nominee put forward by a major party in modern American history.)
So Clinton is being propped up by the so-called newspaper of record, and that newspaper is openly conceding that the issues have nothing to do with it. Predictably, it is all about Trump. But the Times, in defiance of the standards of coherent literature, also shoots down the very premise that it established in its opening sentence, claiming, Running down the other guy wont suffice to make that argument. The best case for Hillary Clinton cannot be, and is not, that she isnt Donald Trump. The best case is, instead, about the challenges this country faces, and Mrs. Clintons capacity to rise to them.
Also, shes a woman. The Times opines:
The 2016 campaign has brought to the surface the despair and rage of poor and middle-class Americans who say their government has done little to ease the burdens that recession, technological change, foreign competition and war have heaped on their families.

BOL!
The NY Slimes just struck out and never hit a ball pitched by Trump!
If they laid out the issues side by side, Clinton would lose.
So they falsely claim Trump hasn’t provided substance and make it sound like Clinton has.
Meanwhile Clinton argues for right to work while she refuses to do anything about the jobs leaving the country.
Trump on the other hand, will put up tariffs insuring jobs stay in the U.S. Will lower the supply of labor by stopping the illegal influx and let the labor market drive wages up.
Give the lapdog media a doggie treat.
Nobody who has half a brain is surprised that this radical commie, majority Mexican owned rag is endorsing crooked Hitlery. Birds of a feather, etc.

Our backs are against the wall. We have no choice but to endorse Killary for president.
I have been on tenterhooks for a week now wondering who the NY Times would endorse :) This could be a total game changer . . .

I was thinking about following Breitbart’s link to the Slimes article. But after reading the clips in the Breitbart article, my cooler head prevailed.
Besides, I think I’ve used my allotment of “free” looks at the Slimes for this month.
Illary is a sick (Parkinson’s), Lying, Crooked, Evil bitch, and those are the issues.
record of service!!! What lke servers in basements, sending classified info, taking money off corrupt governments, ling about the server, lying about the emails. Middles east in flames, refugee crisis, Iran deal. Good grief one would run away from that service , if one had any brains.
NYT , payback will be a bi+ch
It is not what she has accomplished, it is what she claims she wanted to accomplish...
In other news, dung beetles announce, “dung is great!”
Asking all conservatives to UNSUBSCRIBE to the NY Times and/or other lefty news rags. We should never, ever pay them to lie, and that’s exactly what we do when we buy their newspapers.
Please, please unsubscribe. If you MUST take a paper, then at least take Mon-Sat. Cancel the Sunday edition. That’s where they make their big money (advertising rates, based on circulation).
The papers are at death’s door anyway. We can push them over.
A more iintetesting concept is the eventual endorsement of the Wall Street Journal. Any bets?
” New York Times Editorial Board Endorses Hillary Clinton: The Issues Dont Matter!”
And especially character.
“Dog bites man.”
