It's all so unfair to Boehner and the wingers!
http://blogs.lancasteronline.com/smartremarks/2010/09/24/fox-would-never-do-this/">Smart Remarks

So supposedly there’s a sex scandal that may be brewing below the surface involving He of the Orange Tan, Ohio Rep. John Boehner.

How do you think the right-wing media is reporting this?

By the same standards by which they’d report it if a Democrat were about to be outed?

Hahahahahahahahahaha…

<snip>

Drudge links to http://www.nypost.com/p/pagesix/liberal_blitz_on_gop_chief_i2CGMY2pnf70TdawgzDZIN">this piece in the right-wing New York Post, which is an absolute masterpiece of the OUTRAGE!!! we so often invoke:

Liberal media outlets are trying to smear the highest-ranking Republican in the House just weeks before the midterm elections with a deal-breaking scandal before he has a chance to take the speaker’s chair from Nancy Pelosi.


See? Unfair? Republicans would never do such a thing!

Insiders on Capitol Hill are buzzing about an upcoming New York Times exposé that will detail an alleged Boehner affair. Sources say the Times is looking for the right time to drop the story in October to sway the election, similar to how the Times reported during the 2008 presidential campaign on an alleged John McCain affair that supposedly had taken place many years before and that was flatly denied by the woman in question.


Because Fox News would wait until after the election!

A rep for Boehner’s office said, “This is bull. The American people oppose Washington Democrats’ job killing, so their desperate liberal allies are resorting to outright lies. It’s low, and it’s dirty.”


It’s taking a play right outta your right-wing playbook, bud.

What cracks me up is the Republican sanctimony. I mean, I can understand why the politicians themselves cop this attitude. But that right-wing hatchet-wielders like Drudge might pretend this is all so OUTRAGEOUS!!! is hilarious.

Take another look - the Post is implicitly suggesting it would never do such a lowdown and dirty partisan thing. Next time they do, maybe I’ll send them a little letter saying - wait, I thought this was a “smear!”

But the cherry on top of this sundae of OUTRAGE!!! is the way the right-wing constituency will react to all of it. They will, of course, take it on faith that only liberals practice politics like this; that conservatives are far too honorable to ever engage in anything of this sort; that it’s never occurred on the right and never WOULD occur on the right, because people on the right have standards. While on the left it’s all about “hits.”

And then, feeling self-satisfied, they’ll turn on Glenn Beck and listen to him talk about how Obama is a communist.

2. If you are a Republican, you must hire a hooker to put diapers on you before they get outraged...
And if you do that, you know your wife will carry out her threat and cut your Darth Vader helmet off. I mean, God, Boehner is not Vitier to be ridden out of he Republican party on a rail...

Oh, my God.

I think there is some evidence of media favoritism toward Republicans caught with their pecker pointing.
