Media critic: Paul Ryan is who the media pretended Gore was

[Ashleyshubby]

Below is an excerpt of a column appearing today, criticizing the mainstream media regarding Paul Ryan:

As it turns out, Paul Ryan is the person the press corps invented in 1999.

At the time, they called him “Al Gore!”

At the time, the mainstream press corps was in Year 7 of a very dumb serial novel. In this amazingly stupid novel, major Democrats were cast as Big Liars (“just like Bill Clinton”).

People who opposed those Democrats were cast as The World’s Most Honest Men. So was any major figure who posed as a “budget hawk.”

The press corps has been typing this novel for the past twenty years. By the rules of their stupid game, Paul Ryan was the world’s most recent Most Honest Man, even though the things he said never made any real sense.
