CNN on Biden Gaffes—Democrats Hold Themselves to Higher Truth Standard

Joe Biden might have set a personal record last week for the most gaffetastic gaffe of his storied, fact-mangling career. According to the Washington Post, in describing the awarding of a medal to a military member:
"In the space of three minutes, Biden got the time period, the location, the heroic act, the type of medal, the military branch and the rank of the recipient wrong, as well as his own role in the ceremony."
Nice work, Joe!
So, will the Democrat primary electorate hold against Biden his history of mangling the truth? A CNN panel this morning fretted that could indeed be the case because . . . when it comes to the truth, Democrats hold themselves to a higher standard than Republicans!

CNN actually claims that Democrats hold themselves to a “higher standard” when it comes to the truth.
Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

CNN’s complaint is that Joe is just a lousy liar—and he is too old to change.
He needs to leave lying to the professionals—like CNN!

Lying Biden makes up a fake story about war veteran and his role in it
Lying media makes up a fake story about their “higher” truth standards using Biden gaffe as an opportunity to heap false praise on themselves

If Biden had no previous history of lying all the time, about everything, as well as groping every little girl he is in reach of, I would just mark these latest comments up to onset of dementia. But, really, lying is just Biden being Biden.

For Democrats, the highest standard of truth isn’t “The Truth” but “My Truth.”

"In the space of three minutes, Biden got the time period, the location, the heroic act, the type of medal, the military branch and the rank of the recipient wrong, as well as his own role in the ceremony." pathological confusion + pathological forgetfulness = early stage of dementia
above + flattened affect + increased inability to function + increase dependence on others = middle stage of dementia

CNN is a collective of folks who are not very bright.
They seem to hate the fact that the narratives no longer belongs to them, quite petulant IMHO.
I could care less about CNN or their sponsors.
