Giant Squid Photographed off Japan Coast; House Majority Leader Indicted on Charges of Criminal Conspiracy
After a long day at the office, I looked forward to soaking up the coverage of the criminal indictment of House Majority Leader Tom DeLay.
Let me repeat that:
The criminal indictment of House Majority Leader Tom DeLay.
Unfortunately, your liberal media felt this nuclear bomb merited only the obligatory minimum coverage on the evening programming. Yes, DeLay got top billing at the opening of the newscasts. But within ten minutes of each hour-long program, the DeLay story evaporated, and it was back to wall-to wall hurricane coverage and the giant squid. Un-fucking-believable. And of course, the proportionally absurd amount of DeLay coverage was framed in the usual “he-said-she-said” style of reporting we’ve come to expect from the derelict bootlicking media whores. In other words, equal weight was given to the absurd and desperate Republican talking point that the indictment of DeLay, the most ferociously partisan and blatantly corrupt GOP thug on the Hill, was a partisan attack.
Nauseating and infuriating.
How the fuck do these people sleep at night?
