Talk about yer “death panels”, Martha!
The liberal media was all over Sarah Palin and others who warned that it is entirely possible that the berserk “Obamacare” political agenda (and socialist industrial complex!) would mean a rationing of medical care possibly resulting in deaths, precisely like in Canada. “Bizarre!” they claimed. “Liar!” She’s a “nutbar!” An “extremist!”. A “racist!” “Idiot!”
Such calm, measured, and moderate tones from the progressives mean, of course, that even they believe she was and is, in fact, spot on. The truth makes an owy on liberals which usually remains untreated due to a lack of free medical care, leading to brain malfunctions such as what I medically describe as the incessant oozing of brain poo.
But where’s the outrage from the Left when their own make what really are clinically insane arguments against half of the U.S. population, such as what we hear almost everyday on the news —some of it coming from President Obama, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and Senate leader Harry Reid?
The great Media Research Center folks spotted another bit of lunacy from the far-left (but still very much mainstream) wing of the liberal progressive media yesterday, and once again it’s from the far-left MSNBC’s increasingly unhinged host Chris Matthews. He’s the one who said of Barack Obama, on air, in news coverage prior to the last election, “My, I felt this thrill going up my leg. I mean, I don’t have that too often.”
Leave it to Chris Matthews to shoe-horn in a crass political point against the Tea Party, even in the midst of a heartwarming story like the rescue of the Chilean miners. On Wednesday’s Hardball, the MSNBC host, along with his guest Richard Trumka, president of the AFL/CIO, claimed those miners would never have survived if they had followed the “every man for himself” philosophy of the Tea Party crowd. After Trumka initially recounted his joy at watching the miners being rescued, he quickly veered into his standard rhetoric of the need for more regulation. Matthews then picked up on Trumka’s cue to launch into an attack on the Tea Party, as he distorted their limited government view as one of total anarchy that would mean “no more government, no more everything.”
My God, man. Put some ointment on that thing!
That’s not merely a common distortion — that’s some kind of fungal infection affecting the cranium, or something. What kind of caring, compassionate, group-hugging, team-playing, honest, liberal news-talker would do that to people? Answer: one who isn’t any of those things. He’s faking it.
