The Mainstream Moron Media

WASHINGTON -- I believe I made a mistake when I decided not to attend the Democratic National Convention. The consequence of that decision has been that I have had to watch its highlights on national television. There the media gaggle, with few exceptions, has plangently repeated -- tediously and cheerlessly -- many things that I know to be untrue. The preeminent untruth resounding across the airways is that the Clintons are political geniuses. They are to electioneering what Ludwig van Beethoven was to the piccolo, or Slobodan Milosevic was to ethnic cleansing, to wit, consummate artists. Since the early 1990s I have sedulously researched the Clintons' life and work. My finding is that they are mediocrities in all things political, save one: huckstering.

Great article. I don't understand the Clinton pseudo devotion either. “Pseudo” because I also recall how most of the MSM savaged Hillary during her campaign.

My Democratic friends, you will all be better off when these shameless opportunists are in retirement.

Hey Billary, how can we miss ya when ya won't go away?

I heard Obama stopped abruptly one day and 5 network executives broke their noses!

The mainstream Obamarazzi have completely and without shame shed every pretense of fairness and objectivity this election cycle. May the reap richly from what they have sown....
