This week’s Merrimack Journal is a left-wing work of art. It includes seven letters to the Editor. All seven are in support of Democrats. Six of the seven have headlines that either downgrade Romney or Promote Obama. (One supports a Democrat for the NH House).
While I am willing…barely…to suggest that in a predominantly Republican town of 28,000 (roughly), that not one of those Republicans sent a letter to the Editor of the local fish-wrapper, the odds seem a bit high.
The icing on the cake? The ‘editors’ comments on the same page, suggest that they receive all kinds of letters but that they do not want to publish any that attack candidates. They are looking for positive letters. This, in conjunction with the published content, is meant to imply that they got letters from Republicans, they were just too mean spirited to put in the paper.
But how does a biased left wing editor even know what that might be? She doesn’t.
The product she presents to us is little more than class warfare rhetoric and a parade of left-wing talking points, right off a mailer or palm card, most of them so biased and inaccurate as to be embarrassing. These are the words of people who read, believe and repeat what their party tells them. So printing lies, as long as they are polite and positive (for Democrats and Obama) must be acceptable.
Thank God that few, if any people, even read this crappy little paper and those that do are probably the few Democrats in town so they can pat each other on the back and talk about how great their letter was.
While you are working on how to put a positive spin on four dead at Benghazi or four-dollar a gallon gas, or seeking the silver lining about how food prices are climbing thanks to all the quantitative easing and how this ‘price inflation’ is like a crushing 30% to 50% tax on the middle and lower class, or how access to doctors is declining, insurance rates are climbing, and procedures are being whittled away as a result of Obama care, remember that there are no specifics that make Obama look good unless you are a Democrat willing to ignore the past four years, which they must. And any effort to point out these facts…is mean spirited.
So from now until November, the Merrimack Pravda is back, complete with its gate keeper of an editor, who shall ensure that whomever actually reads the crappy little fish-wrapper, does not accidentally see anything that might damage Dear-leader or his acolytes in the Democrat party–whom, by the way–he is not sharing any of HIS campaign dollars. (I’m so mean.)
If it matters, and it does, the only reason I even know about these letters is that my wife happened to notice them on her way to the Market Basket Flyer.
If you want “More for your Dollar” you have to have a dollar.
