condeming consensus

THE MEDIA

Well - its official now. Bush is the worst president in the history of civilization. Every one who leaves the administration writes a critical tell all - probably hedging for a plea bargain at the upcoming Nuremberg Trials no doubt. Weather it is Move On or, NYT op/ed's dem talking points, leftist documentaries, third world dictators, and now former insiders, the rhetoric is interestingly similar (a single truth and a blow to deconstructivist?!?) Could they all be reading from the same (post modern) script? Is the Media Establishment, and the Political Establishment all walking in lockstep as an overcompensation for their being "hoodwinked" before the war? How did this president get reelected by a majority of the popular vote - a first since 1988? How did John Kerry loose when it was known before the election there was not any WMD? (Oh yeah he was swiftboated) Ah..... , Groupthink! (Say it to the tune of Freak Out - the disco song) It feels so wonderfully uplifting to form a consensus, reasonably wondering where it is that the heard wanders. Oh look! On the horizon - the Messiah - I think I'm going to faint!! He can see dead people (addressing fallen soldiers in the audience on Memorial day). Quayle can't spell Idaho's major agricultural product. Obama thinks there are 57 US States!! I'm sure the heard of independent minds is all over that.
