I am puzzled by the punditry saying out of one side of it's mouth that Tuesday...

[Cary]

... was a resounding rejection of #fakepresident, and out of the other that Democrats are just as messed up as Republicans and that Democrats have to have something positive to offer.

It seems to me that the people saying that are the ones who need to do some deep soul searching, and to have something more positive to offer. #fakepresident is an unmitigated catastrophe. Had Republicans not stolen this election we would have seen all kinds of positive initiatives, and all kinds of obstruction from Republicans. Essentially those claiming that we Democrats have nothing positive are themselves obstructing, because they themselves have noting constructive. In other words since they can't bedazzle us with their brilliance they try to baffle us with their bullshit.

1. More attacks on Democrats...such BS.

2. Even NPR is getting in on the bash the Democrats game. On Morning Edtion, today, they did the

typical, but "the Democrats are in disarray and who know what they believe" story and who do they interview about it? Nina Turner!

What an f'ing joke. Don't ask me how she bashed us, I turned that crap off.

3. There is some truth to it, but the impetus for the media

is that they are braindead feckless twits who don't even get that they thoughtlessly adhere to required framing.

SO ...

The GOP is to be admired, and all framing of their fuckwittery is akin to cheering on the home town team. What does the GOP need to do to win! Gee, isn't this complete bullshit they are spewing incredible "tactics!"

The Ds are to be marginalized. They get the "gotta be careful to not overplay your hand" admonishment, and are constantly asked to respond to the crazy shit that Rs spew.

4. Don Henley nailed it years ago with "Dirty Laundry."

Getting more viewers is the only thing which matters. If it bleeds, it leads. Your underwear could be killing you: Film at eleven.

5. Both of those things can be true at once.

I think the latter is less true now than it has been but there is still work to do.

As for the media, they're a bunch of shallow, horserace-loving twits anyway.
