The Times Loses It
Weekly Standard ^ | 1-14-11 | P.J. O'ROURKE

It was a weekend of great sorrow. On Saturday, January 8, an insane young man tried to kill Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, injuring her horribly. The man then fired his gun into a small political gathering, murdering a nine-year-old girl, a federal judge, a congressional staffer, and three of Giffords’s constituents. Thirteen other people were wounded. In the midst of life we are in death. There is, in this world, no making sense of such events.

The last week demonstrated anew how the far-left media — as weakened as they are economically - still control the agenda. Despite our inroads in talk radio and Fox, we’re still counterpunching. Having the lost the intellectual war, the Left now shamelessly grafts onto any narrative and Lie, to further their agenda and undermine conservatives. The Conservative movements must find a way to get our issues front-in-center on the public agenda. Otherwise, we’ll continue to be defending ourselves against the phantom nonsense of the Lying Left.

Or maybe Hulse and Zernike are old hacks in the pocket of certain political interests that feel threatened by populism.

Ya think?

As long as the media stays a leftist propaganda machine... the threat of this once great Union will continue to teeter on the brink of division.
