I’ve got to agree. Why do so many conservatives seem to ALWAYS so quickly get behind obvious leftist media smears on their own people? Especially for something as innocuous as this?

Would the media have been happier if Ted froze to death?

Answer: Yes, of course.

The media plays the simple-minded like a fiddle.

It is very, very sad.

Anyone who has worked in politics (even at the city council level) understands what "optics" is.

It means you do things because they make you look good, and you don't do things that make you look bad.

Conservatives who don't get this don't last long in politics.

Just the facts--whether you like them or not.

"We can evade reality, but we cannot evade the consequences of evading reality."

Words to live by--by Ayn Rand (who hated politics--and this was one of the reasons...)

I remember right after 9/11 Howard Stern’s Fred Norris imitated what dinkins would’ve said “Dat any nothing, ain’t nothin at all’. I hate Stern now, but they were on point.

Belittle this disaster makes you on that level.

Oh, and the city I just fled put out an email that water levels are at critical. We’re filling up the bathtubs here in case it’s all gone by tonight, and very well could be.
