The Washington Put up should institute obligatory substance testing for its workers. The crucial arises in mild of a column at this time by considered one of its opinion writers that will seemingly be the results of the writer ingesting some significantly mind-bending stuff.
The columnist is Greg Sargent, and the headline is “Glenn Youngkin’s repulsive ultimate push reveals a darkish reality for Democrats.” And simply what’s that “darkish reality,” in keeping with Sargent?
It is that Terry McAuliffe would possibly lose his Virginia governor’s race as a result of Republican candidate Glenn Youngkin has benefited from:
“a right-wing media community that has no rival on the Democratic facet . . . This race highlights this lopsided communications imbalance with distinctive readability.”
Certain, Greg. As a result of conservatives have Fox Information. And liberals have . . . just about every thing else. Simply in case his thoughts stays addled, let’s remind Sargent that—amongst many different retailers—the left has: MSNBC, CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, the New York Instances, and Sargent’s personal paper, the Washington Put up: probably the most influential sheet for a lot of Virginia.
Sargent shows but extra obliviousness. He bemoans the truth that “Democrats depend on extra standard information retailers to succeed in their voters.”
Does not Sargent see the irony? Democrats can certainly “rely” on “standard information retailers”—additionally generally known as the mainstream media—as a result of they lean lopsidedly left!
Sargent spouts one other notion that will be hilarious however that it raises severe considerations for the person’s way of thinking. He claims that Democrats typically lose races as a result of:
“Democrats generally balk at constructing their politics round social antagonisms, as an alternative of accepting that generally, politics have to be about disagreeable social battle.”
Democrats are unwilling to stir “disagreeable social battle?” Has Sargent misplaced contact with actuality? To cite the late, nice, Rush Limbaugh, in the case of campaigning, the Democrats’ very stock-in-trade is to accuse Republicans of being “racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobes!
The outcomes of the Virginia race might be coming in quickly. However the truth that the liberal media is already making such absurd excuses for a possible McAuliffe loss bodes ailing for the Democrat.
Within the meantime, Mr. Sargent, please take this Dixie cup and head to the small room down the hall on the left.
