The Fate of Martin Bashir... [View all]
Has come to fruition due to the inability of the left to unconditionally support those figures that deserve unconditional support.
The Right does that all the time with their media figures, that's why they get to stick around to say even more outrageous shit. However, the Left is ready to drop a bomb on anyone who sways from the true path at the drop of the hat. In that way, we're our own worst enemy. It depicts us as wishy-washy and lacking conviction.
We stand up for causes, even flawed ones, but flawed people, true lefties with their hearts in the right places but who are fallible as the next guy? No, they have to be sacrificed at the stake of the sake of intellectual purity.
If I ever hear another complaint about the Right's continuous support of Fox News, Limbaugh, Beck, Palin or any one of those fools, after watching the same people throw one straying leftie after another onto the garbage pile, I'm gonna puke my guts out.
There was plenty of time to save Martin Bashir's job… But, I guess that he just wasn't pure enough to give a damn.
There are some other things that I'd love to say about this, but I'm keeping those things out to keep the thread jackers away.
I'm upset and deservedly so.
