It was only a matter of time before John McCain went from media darling to media target. The New York Times has started the smear campaign with a nice little smear piece on an alleged affair:
In a puffed-up display of sexism and windy words scrawled on smoke and mirrors, the Times comes up with these startling revelations: Iseman, a professional lobbyist, went to McCain’s office frequently. Amazing. A lobbyist visiting a U.S. senator’s office? Who ever heard of such outlandish behavior?
But wait! There’s more! She turned up at fund raisers with McCain. Now, there’s evidence: lobbyists for major corporations that fund candidates going to fundraisers for candidates or Congresspersons they favor. Apparently the Times plumbers (ah, Nixon days!) don’t get out often enough to circulate at political and business events.
And, to top off this sewage sundae, the Times, gamboling in the fields of Jerry Springer-dom, notes that Iseman flew on private jets with McCain now and then. Does the Times have any clue how many people flow into and out of Congressperson’s offices, fundraisers, transportation (plane, train, or automobile) within just one year?
The Times doesn’t care about facts much these days. They are about ideology. McCain stands in the way of their beliefs, so they have to cater their headlines to ensuring his defeat.
Remember, the NY Times endorsed McCain. Now, they are attacking him.
