Media: The Democrat Enforcer (and party propaganda arm) americanthinker.com/articles/2018/…
The media are the Democrats' Luca Brasi, the #MeToo movement the gun.
Democrats have repeatedly warned the GOP not to confirm Judge Kavanaugh, but Republicans aren't getting the message. Send in the muscle.
Democrats have repeatedly warned the GOP not to confirm Judge Kavanaugh, but Republicans aren't getting the message. Send in the muscle.
To accuse Kavanaugh of being wildly drunk and attacking this woman is like accusing Mother Teresa of stealing from the poor before she became a nun
The media have pounce on this story as a means to bludgeon the president and Judge Kavanaugh into submission. Every headline, cable show, and news outlet features indignant senators railing against "old white men" picking on this woman, "blaming the victim," "bullying her."
Ironically, the real victim here is Judge Kavanaugh. Whether or not Dr. Ford ever suffered this attack, it wasn't by Kavanaugh. His high school classmates can't even remember seeing him drunk, much less aggressive.
Media continually step up their game. Afraid that "almost molested" won't carry the day, they work in the word "rape" as often as possible. They couch it in "attempted," knowing that even the alleged incident never came close to rape.
But see what they do here: get me and others to defend against the escalated charges, to argue that it wasn't really rape, thereby indirectly validating the alleged crime.
Media are able to control the attack narrative because we, unsuspecting viewers, allowed them into our homes, delegated them the authority to filter and deliver our news. They're now all-powerful.
The left leaves a trail of destruction for their enemies: Corey Lewandowski now labeled a bully, Judge Roy Moore among those too damaged by media to even defend, careers torched, reputations in ashes.
The message: Those who step out of line will pay – not with brass knuckles and billy clubs, but with accusers who can't be doubted and must be believed, no matter how outrageous the charge.
Whether or not the event actually happened, the coverage is the same. Politicians and news and cable hosts lecture us on the severity, the horror of whatever. They repeat identical talking points over and over, tyrannize audiences with interminable coverage of the beating.
Waterboarding could not be more torture than these screeching, hateful liberals lecturing us on how we "must" think and act.
Sadly, too many conservatives join the pile-on. Due to their abject terror of the enforcer, Republicans and conservatives actually echo the left's talking points.
We can't expect congressional Republicans to stop the madness; they're cowering in chamber corners, pleading with the mob not to dismember them.
So it is with Republicans: either they stand down or they're next. Then they will be the poor saps facing an accuser who must be believed, who can't be challenged, 24-7 media confirmation of the alleged crime, and an accuser who's off-limits
They allow MSM to hammer home the charges until everyone in this country is aware of the accusations. They let Ford set up parameters of when she'll speak. Grassley sets deadline after deadline & postpones it again because Ford is scared, she can't fly, she's trying to think, OK?
Whether Judge Kavanaugh's confirmed or not, Senate leaders have allowed his reputation to be sullied, the only black mark on a great man's record. They've let media broadcast this travesty for more than a week – wall-to-wall coverage of the smear.
But Congress doesn't really have a choice. The enforcer is waiting for these congressmen to make the wrong move. Either they cave to Dr. Ford's every demand or they face a brutal media campaign that could cost them the majority in upcoming midterms.
