Newsweek Retracts ‘Handmaid’s Tale’ Smear of Amy Coney Barrett
Breitbart ^ | September 22 2020 | JOHN NOLTE

Posted on 09/22/2020 11:17:23 AM PDT by knighthawk

The far-left Newsweek just fired off around a thousand words falsely accusing Amy Coney Barrett of inspiring the dystopian feminist thriller The Handmaid’s Tale, and has been forced to retract it.

L to the M to the A to the O.

Of course, the fake news outlet didn’t retract-retract it. That would require ethics and integrity, and anyone in the media who engages in ethics and integrity will be booted from the club, so Newsweek just wrote the equivalent of “nevermind” at the bottom of its big lie and rewrote the big lie a bit.

It has begun. Even before the announcement. This is what the dems do. Go ahead with the confirmation. Get her on the court before the end of the year.

The left is truly evil. They tried to destroy Brett Kavanaugh. The accuser disappeared from the face of the earth and hasn’t filed suit against Kavanaugh, or called the police. The accuser needs to go to jail.

So people have actually noticed that today’s Muslim culture actually does what the liberals project and pretend a Christian culture might do in their fantasies?

Here we go. Not an original thought left for the democrats. And you wonder why they can’t come up with descent proposals for the public.

I think the “Hand Maiden’s Tale” tells you more about them than anything they want to point at. They are hung up on sex, substituting it for some quasi religious experience where they defy morality and the father — that oppressive patriarch — and the Father above (God). Yes, the Democrats have an issue with this tale and they keep pulling it out maybe thinking one day they will understand their attraction to it. It borders on neurotic hatred where the father should be in chains confined to a Lake of Fire like Satan. The Democrats have issues with freedom FROM, not freedom TO: Freedom FROM their dads. They can only destroy and not create, they are the barren ones not the women. Their lack of freedom demands that everyone not be free. I can go on with this sordid Hand Wringing Tale. But they are not Maidens they are hen pecked husbands who want cuckoldry on every level to, sex at every opportunity as a religious escape from their Puritan dads. Good grief, they should get some counselling and save us and themselves this embarrassment.

The “Handmaid’s Tale” just provides the staging for performance art with the costumes at events/hearings where the LEFT wishes to have a video smear of conservatives as femenist haters and wife beaters. Sound and fury but only a brass drum cacophony!

Our local Walmart sells that crappy book. If she really wanted to write a book about a society where women are oppressed, forced to bear children, marry against their will, and be covered in long capes, she should have chosen Islam.

Look who makes up most of journalism today.

Not the real hard news you may have grown up with.

Yes. As is the case with most lies, there was no truth to it.
