NEW RULE (Best of 2008 - #1)
Stop fucking politics.
McCain Campaign Manager Steve Schmidt: “Let’s be clear and be honest with each other about something fundamental to this race, which is this: Whatever the New York Times once was, it is today not — by any standard — a journalistic organization. It is a20pro-Obama advocacy organization that every day attacks the McCain campaign, attacks Senator McCain, attacks Governor [Sarah] Palin and excuses Senator Obama. This is an organization that is completely, totally, 150 percent in the tank for the Democratic candidate. It is an organization that has made a decision to cast aside its journalistic integrity and tradition to advocate for the defeat of one candidate — in this case John McCain — and to advocate for the election of the other candidate — Barack Obama.”
Schmidt is an ass. Unfortunately, his antics are everyday. Discredit, disgrace, insult, lie, slur, smear, or tarnish… Schmidt exerts justification. He is not justified. He is not an advocate. He is not an operative. He is a conceited, preening moron.
Obviously, misdirection strategy is not unique. Schmidt is ridiculous. Others were ridiculous. Why complain? Schmidt is not merely partisan. He is poisonous. His statements are not merely tantrums. They are toxic. Americans hate politics. Schmidt is the reason. Economic crisis… Mortgage crisis…Schmidt’s indifference is obvious.
Whatever your particular problem, Schmidt does not care. He has two interests. Two interests only. Arousing fear. Assigning blame. America, this is how elections are won. Operatives collect ordinary citizens. They corral a scapegoat. They scream character, patriotism, and values. They whisper epithets.
Steve, you have embarrassed your campaign. You have embarrassed your nation. You have embarrassed politics. Resign.
