Otiosity, thy name is Democrat! If truth in advertising laws
were properly enforced, the Democratic-Farmer-Labor
party, or DFL as it’s currently called, would be forced to change its nom de
guerre to the Democratic-Academic-Media party, or DAM.
Sadly, we
now know, however, that these laws aren’t consistently enforced. For example, the
New York Times has new ads out boldly touting itself as “the truth.” I’m sure
they will soon add, “the light and the way” to that slogan. Talk about inaccuracy in media! What’s next, CNN
claiming its acronym stands for “Conservative News Network?” MSNBC stating:
“the bias stops here!?”
In
these surreal times, can an ad pitching the Washington Post as, “trustworthy, virtuous, artless, hallowed,
transcendent…divine,” be long in appearing?
Come
on. It would be more transparent and truthful if these outlets adopted a motto
along the lines of: “Don’t question us…if you’d like to see your uncle Fred
again!”
These
progressives are certainly entertaining. They accuse Republicans who are
honoring military sacrifice- something they
wouldn’t do- of “using” the veterans and their families, yet these self-same
leftists believe that the people they
use…should feel honored!
And,
suddenly, with Trump’s election, Democrats aver that it is a crime against
nature for an American official to talk to- or be seen in the relative vicinity of- a representative of
the Russian government. That’s odd. It wasn’t all that long ago that their
entire foreign policy platform was: 1) If we can just talk to those with whom
we disagree, everything will be alright and we could avoid these tragic wars
the Republican hawks are wont to lead us into, and 2) Better red than dead.
Ironically
enough, though Democrats have called for Attorney General Jeff Sessions to resign because he twice met with Russian
ambassador Sergey Kislyak when he was a senator and didn’t relay that fact to
Congress during his confirmation hearing, it turns out that a number of
Democratic senators have recently met with the very same ambassador and that
Mr. Kislyak visited the Obama White House at least 22 times between 2009 and
2016.
Better
red-faced than dead.
