On his show today Rush was relating how the big media types are stunned that the D.C debt deal failed to help the U.S. credit rating – well duh! Here’s a transcript of the segment: Simpletons Shocked to See Debt Deal Had No Impact on Anything
They actually expected it to work?
“There was no reduction in debt, there was no reduction in spending, they didn’t do anything on taxes one way or the other, and everybody knows that tax increases are coming with Obamacare. Wolf (Blitzer-CNN), there’s nothing to celebrate here. There was absolutely nothing to celebrate. People with skin in the game, people with money in the game (i.e., people in Wall Street) know full well what an absolute, total joke this whole thing was. But you’re sitting there and the rest of you guys in the media are sitting there following indoor template, following your narrative, whoever starts it. It’s embarrassing; the single-mindedness, the narrow-mindedness, the simpletonian aspects of the way these people think. So Wolf is shocked, stunned, can’t believe it, because Wolf is not able to think for himself.”
And of course the “drive-by media” never doubles-back to figure out where their brilliant analyses went wrong – never learns anything from their mis-calculations and ill-informed predictions. It’s just full steam ahead to manufacture another pseudo crisis. And unfortunately for the future of America, they drag so many of the easily-duped masses along with them.
