What You Missed by Having a Life on Sunday Mornings
What you missed on the Sunday morning chat shows:
[Former White House Deputy Press Secretary Bill] Burton swings around and tells Rove that Cantor and Boehner and McConnell don’t want to help the economy, they just want to score political points. Rove says, “Bill, don’t question the motivations of the people on the other side of the aisle.” Karl Rove holds several copyrights and trademarks on “questioning the motivations of the people on the other side of the aisle” and he guards them zealously.
And that’s the highlight of the intelligent discourse. (There’s also an extended segment on Romneycare v. Obamacare and O’Romneycare. Hoo boy.) How are these even things that happen on the TV??? Welcome to the ghastliest election cycle ever.
