I did it. Watched the Spiceboy Acosta exchange at cnn.com . I've temporarily lost my mind. [View all]

It is exactly what Conjob does. and McEnaney does. And any other of the trumpets when asked a question. It is gaslighting extraordinaire....it is a spew of distortions and lies that provides NO VALUE at all. How Acosta and others don't jump over the lectern and engage in fisticuffs - how they control themselves - is beyond reality.

I am sure that the media types that have to sit through these must go home and drink or toke heavily....I know I would have to.
