Now it is John Kerry that is complaining about the right-wing message machine that is drowning out the liberal message, according to Jeff Jacoby:
’’Several times a day, their message is amplified," grumbled the former Democratic standard-bearer.`’We don’t have anything like that."
This is absurd, as Jacoby writes. Sure there is Fox and Rush Limbaugh and The Washington Times. But there is also CBS, NBC, ABC, PBS, The New York Times, and The Washington Post, etc.
But the question is: do the Democrats really believe this stuff, or are they just blowing smoke to rile up their supporters? It is beginning to appear that they really believe their own propaganda. And that is not good. Not for them, and not for America. The worst lies are the lies that we tell to ourselves.
