Stalinist and Stupid, Part 2: The Magical Land!
The Magical Land of Stalinist Stupidity
Hello boys and girls. Today will talk about a magical land. It's a special place where people have suspended all disbelief and want felons and circus clowns to take care of them and protect them. In this land the have a news industry that doesn't do research and reports everything the leaders say as if that was the news. They are very obedient to the leaders they love.
In today's episode, we find that the obedient media keep telling the people about the TWO candidates that are running for president. The liberal media[1. They are called "liberal" because they actively support socialist candidates. But we all know there is nothing more illiberal and pig-headed than a modern American "liberal".] loves a felon named Hillary Clinton. They worked very hard to defeat Bernie Sanders. He is a socialist who tried to win the liberal presidential nomination. No matter how well he did, the media kept saying he wasn't a good candidate. The conservative media are stuck with man named Donald Trump. None of them believe in him because he is an inarticulate clown. But they think he has the best chance of defeating the felon lady.
Oddly enough, it was the pink, socialist media who helped the clown the most. They have all kinds of dirty things to say about him. But they wanted to match the felon against the clown. So they carried him through the election. If you watch TV, you'll see that they are starting to bring up these dirty things a tiny bit. But they are really waiting for next month. That's when they will talk about all the naughty things they have been holding on the clown. Nothing the clown has done is a pittance compared to the actions of the felon, but that doesn't matter to the pink media.
The conservative, or ham-handed media are trying to make the Donald look good. They don't REALLY think he can win. The surely don't think he would do a good job. But they are too afraid to do ALL the difficult reporting necessary or make any of the commentary needed to help or hurt the clown and actually defeat the felon.
LOOK AWAY! No Candidate to See Here!
So unless you watch the news cycles twice a day like your Uncle Matt does, and pay VERY close attention to the details, you would never know there was a third candidate running for president. Buried deep down in the dark world of 10% poll ratings is a man who is on the ballot in 50 states. But the obedient media people almost never even mention him. All the political wizards told them not to. And when they do mention him, his name is Gary Johnson, they just say he can't win. Even though 60% of all the voters hate the felon and the clown.
Every day the wretched felon says something silly, like "free college".[2. Only stupid people think there is such a thing as free college or free WiFi, or free cell phones.] And the media people run to the silly clown and ask him for his reaction. Then the clown says something and they scurry like good little slaves to ask the felon what she thinks. No one ever asks poor Johnson, a successful two-term governor, or his running mate, also a successful governor, what they think. That would require real work and honesty. The modern media don't want to work and they are not honest. So they keep going back and forth to the criminal and the real estate huckster. The media pretend their words have merit. They tell you these are the only REAL candidates running for president. They know that the vast majority of all the people don't want Donald or Hillary. But they are under orders to make you want them.
The media, and their bosses in politics believe in the magic of intentional avoidance. They believe if they close their eyes and keep pretending governor Johnson isn't there, you'll believe them and vote for one of their candidates. Poof! Magic!
Here's the most magical, mystical, pathetic part of our story. This week, the pink side of a pretend government commission announced that they wanted to sanction FOX News for how they structured their August debate last year. That was the first debate with a prime time and an under-card debate. People on the pretend commission (the Federal Elections Commission) wanted to make up pretend laws that said FOX "contributed' to one campaign and hurt others by using the split line-up. Poof. Magic. New laws.
Never mind that the media goons at CNN did the same thing. That was magically overlooked.
Providing and under-card with pre-determined qualifications didn't help anyone except the voters who had a chance to see ALL the candidates. But still the pink commission members wanted FOX News punished for being...well...FOX News. In government, that is how you handle your political opponents. You ignore the U.S. Constitution and make up magically stupid and childish inanities to stifle free speech. You remember that, boys and girls. Free speech is what our college students lost years ago. Soon, we won't have that right either.
And during all this time, the silly pretend commission has ignored years of established media barking about equal time. If there is anything the media slaves are doing to hurt one candidate and favor another, it is ignoring their job of reporting on the Johnson candidacy. It is being done by liberals and conservatives to forward the interests of their political masters. If that isn't a contribution-in-kind to the felon and the clown, your Uncle Matt doesn't know what is!
And this story might have a sad ending boys and girls. If Uncle Matt is correct, most of the silly voters won't research the candidates on their own. They will listen to the media puppets and vote for one of the two worst candidates ever to run for the presidency. Or they will just stay home and hurt their country that way. I hope I'm wrong. Don't you?
Full disclosure: I support the Johnson campaign by default, not personal enthusiasm. The major parties shame themselves this year in what they offer the American voter. I probably disagree on twice as many issues as I would agree on with Johnson. But he believes in taking a wrecking ball to the budget. That concept is decades, and trillions of dollars, overdue. He believes in small government and doesn't think A-holes inside the Beltway should be involved with how you live your life. He is the only successful chief executive in the race and is backed by a successful governor as his VP. In my opinion, this is a no-brainer. We all need to grow up and dump the felon and the clown.
