RIGHT-WING POSTS

Occassionally I will post some comments from the wingnuts, both for instruction and comic relief.

Here's a good one that uses the "liberal media bias" meme:


Look at the terminology that has become most popular, even among many conservatives like yourself: “nuking"…using the “nuclear” option…etc. That term itself carries a lot of baggage and in general a negative connotation. The fact that the MSM uses it so frequently is a sign that the Dems/MSM have won that battle of terminology.
In reality, it should be called the Constitutional option…the democratic option…the option of majority rule.

Of course, it's not the media behind the term "nuclear option," it's Trent Lott:

"I'm for the nuclear option, absolutely," Lott has said.
