Curioser and
curioser. That’s how I would describe
the state of our national principles and priorities. People are up in arms about Ryan Lochte’s
lies, and that’s fine. Lies hurt people
and they ought to have consequences. But
where is the commensurate disgust and outrage with one of this country’s most
infamous and far more dangerous liars, Hillary Clinton? Depending on which poll you see some 65-80%
of voters distrust her and understand that she’s dishonest, yet she basks in
cheers and applause while poor little Ryan Lochte is taking a huge loss in
endorsements. Remember the big headlines
over “inflate-gate?” Any outrage over
Clinton’s web of corruption pales in comparison. It’s a sad world when people care more about ethics
in sports than for presidential candidates,
but I guess if the Clintons and Democrats have taught us anything it’s how to
be, um, flexible with our standards. “Flexible”
might be too soft a word, actually. Schizophrenic
is more like it.
On an
interesting and related note, Fox
News has noted how the leftwing media is doing its best to tie Lochte to
Donald Trump. Although there seems to be
no evidence that Lochte supports Trump (he was for Obama last time around,
according to the piece, which explains his casual relationship with the truth),
the MSM apparently believes that tying a known liar to Trump will taint
Trump. Once again I’m left scratching my
head. If Lochte’s lies taint Trump, why
don’t Clinton’s own lies taint her in the minds of the MSM? It makes little sense…..unless you understand who the MSM really are, as we do here. When they say they’re here to “make a
difference,” it’s not the kind of difference you might think.
Regular readers
here understand that I’m no Trump fan, in part because he too plays fast and
loose with the truth when it suits him.
But Trump’s no Hillary. She’s in
a class all her own.
