As a sign of how relatively little I have to complain about when it comes to national politics, I’m going to complain about a recent Washington Post headline above an article that explained why I have relatively little to complain about.
With that headline, the Post hits the trifecta. It’s patronizing, demeaning, and sorta, kinda accurate. All at once.
The Washington Post turns it around. And somehow when they’re done explaining, it’s all part of a larger plan by Biden to tame the left by cooing sweet nothings into our ears. And now we’re little kitty cats—excuse me while I rub against Joe Biden’s leg. OK, that didn’t really sound right.
Clearly, we need to teach the Post about the difference between lefties and liberals. As they seem to use the terms interchangeably. All right, so pay attention Linskey, Parker, Stein—because this will be on the final exam!
In contrast, a leftie is someone who eagerly voted for Bernie in the primary and then grudgingly voted for the Democratic nominee on the lesser-of-two-evils theory.
They think he’s a fraud who’s virtually indistinguishable from George Bush, George W. Bush, Bob Dole, and most of the other Republicans of his time.
