Roll Over Beethoven, Tell Tchaikovsky The News

Lather, Rinse, Repeat. Although this article was written last March (via Instapundit) it remains evergreen and probably will for the remainder of the Age of Trump:  The Basic Formula For Every Shocking Russia/Trump Revelation. It starts with :

  1. The New York Times or Washington Post releases an article that at first blush appears extremely damning.
  2. Anti-Trump pundits and Democrats react reflexively to the news, express shrieking outrage, and proclaim that this finally proves untoward collusion between Trump and Russia — a smoking gun, at last.
  3. Aggrieved former Clinton apparatchiks *connect the dots* in a manner eerily reminiscent of right-wing Glenn Beck-esque prognostication circa 2009.

That’s followed by 10 additional steps before the inevitable:

      13: Repeat.

Meanwhile the media will do it’s level best to act as if they are impartial while ignoring all of what they consider “irrelevent” information. 

    

Charlie Martin submits 5 questions related to the latest Trump Kerfuffle ending with:

Question Five. What the hell is is wrong with these people?

Roll Over Beethoven, sure, the Beatles made it famous but Chuck Berry wrote it and did it better.


You know she wiggles like a glow worm
Dance like a spinning top
She's got a crazy partner
Oughta see ‘em reel an rock
Long as she's got a dime
The music will never stop


Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Dig to these rhythm and blues

Sorry leftists. Nobody but “journalists” and latte-sipping progs are talking about Russia, Russian lawyers or “collusion.”

Epic fail trying to get Trump.

Many moons ago, a NY classical station was being converted to rock format. That was the first song they played.

That's perfect! Back in the day, I told a Classical Music loving professor friend that I had a new piece I wanted him to listen to. After the orchestral intro and into the lead guitar intro, the look on his face was priceless. He forgave me...
