He put out a breathless tweet hating on COURIC for having sacrificed "journalism" to cover up for RBG. So I was moved to respond in an e-mail circle including him:
(Wingnut ecstatic) Because in Katie COURICs last gasp at raking in mill-yones of bucks, a tell-all whose biggest revelation is what a sleazy little (expletive) she is and has been in our plain sight all these years, wherein she trashes every co-worker, boss, and guest she ever had, the biggest for (local host) is her trashing of Lib icon Ruth Bader GINSBURG.
Its what are the phrases for (local host), par for the course and/or modus operandi always looking/yearning for the latest Great White Hope coming down the pike who will SLAY Libs.
So the big reveal (that Katie is a SLEAZE?), is that GINSBURG trashed the Black football player Kaepernick genuflecting in protest of racism when the Star Spangled whos-it is played before the games.
Yea, KAEPERNICK was first lambasted by wingnuts and then glorified by Libs for his symbolic protest. So now (local host) is *thrilled* that Liberal icon GINSBURG is outed by Cutie COURIC as having disagreed with the minoritys protest contrary to Lib orthodoxy.
**** Now, where does this fit in (local hosts) rap sheet of just being wrong for forty years and always grasping at straws yearning/hoping against hope for the Great White Hope to slay all Libs, the slaying coming from a hitherto respected, authentic Lib source instead of from the wingnut crap side of things?
Well, he has fallen for all wingnut crap down the pike the Iraq Attack, the country club Repukes of yesteryear, the Swift Boat jerks trashing KERRY, governor PALIN, the gun a-holes who disrupted carrying Long Guns and shaming local law enforcement everywhere, -
Yeah, (local wingnut) has done it all (the above list not inclusive).
So now hes adding to his resume of JUST PLAIN WRONG with this petty, puny sniping at GINSBURG. Is that all ya got? Small victory for you. GINSBURGs record of decisions and personal accomplishments will live longer than all of the wingnut justices SMALL VISION (quote from FDR).
Whats (local wingnut's) point, that a JEWISH Lib woman is hypocritical and disapproved of a BLACK man?
He HAS no point, being a collector of ANACHRONISTIC (collector's items, local/personal reference) and discredited ideologies.
**** But back to Katie COURIC. Shes got a really bad book tour experience coming up, tough interviews up ahead (Savannah GUTHRIE's NBC interview 10-19 & CBS blackballed), all the excerpts from her tell-all being really really slicing and dicing of anybody she knew all the years of her career of us thinking she was worth fifteen millions at every crap job she did, and the only best words she had in this book being for her lecherous co-worker sexual predator Matt LAUER did she leave out of the book any trysts SHE might have had WITH HIM? Now THAT would have been worth a cool fifteen million just by itself!
