Scandals ignored. Denials issued. Planes grounded.
In an update to my post about Alan Keyes' exclusion from the debates (apparently at the hands of Mitt Romney), I directed a question to the Kryptonite left: What I'd really like to know is why the left is so hell-bent on ignoring the flying Rechimplican sex scandal that I carefully documented yesterday....I admit, that question had little to do with either Keyes or Romney. It's just that I can't believe the continued silence of all these leading leftist bloggers about the huge scandal which has been dropped into their laps. Their attitude reminds me of Mickey Kaus' complaint about Matt Drudge: A bizarre number of people, including several kf emailers, seem to think that you just can't have a sex scandal unless Drudge is driving it. In part because they assume he has a low evidentiary threshhold, he's become something like the new accepted Arbiter of Truth. No Drudge, no story! But--from what I can tell--Drudge doesn't link to lots of stories, for both traditional (evidence, relevance) and idiosyncratic reasons. This isn't the first time kausfiles hasn't met Drudge's journalistic standards!(Via Glenn Reynolds.) Well, to that I'd add that this isn't the first time Classicalvalues.com hasn't met Drudge's journalistic standards! (I might as well have said that, even if I never did!) The thing is, Kaus is talking about a sex scandal that could wreck the Edwards campaign. The flying Rechimplican sex scandal, on the other hand, promises to shoot down most of the GOP, because at this point they cannot afford another sex scandal. What both affairs have in common is denial. The Democrats: [Edwards'] spokesman said that allegations Edwards had an affair are "false, absolute nonsense."The GOP: .....no agency admits to actually deployingWhy is it that just at the same time that both parties face major sex scandals, each party is looking the other way? I suspect collusion. MORE: I see that Glenn Reynolds is unable to fly right now. Considering what's going on in the skies lately, I don't blame him.
Time may fly, but the timing doesn't. posted by Eric on 10.11.07 at 10:29 PM
