chickenhawk corner
What's most infuriating about these chickenhawks is that, thanks to wingnut welfare and newspapers striving to "balance" their editorial pages, their bloodthirsty nonsense is given so much exposure. There are simply not enough of them, nor Americans with whom they agree, for their ideas to compete in the "marketplace" of ideas. But thanks to generous support from war profiteers and relentless hounding from dittoheads, there is a ready and increasing supply of their manufactured opinions and a continuing demand from Newspapers and TV bookers to fill the "chickehawk corner" of their op-ed pages and shows. Never mind that they all say the exact same things, ad nauseum, with cherry-picked and invented "facts" ripped straight the Rebuplican memo-of-the-day. Never mind that everything they've said previously proved false. They fact is that the media fears the wrath of the 30% more than the 70%, and simply cannot find informed, experienced, and worthwhile opinion from the right. There is none.
This keeps the public confused, the trolls mollified, and most of all, keeps Rich Lowry out of the Wal-Mart smock he would be wearing if the "market" had anything to do with it.
