Political Cynic reads Jennifer Rubin on Andrew Breitbart

Here is Jennifer Rubin singing the praises of Andrew Breitbart. Is it surprising that a fellow citizen of the ‘Conservative Counter World’, that has a problem with the establishment of historical actualities, should praise a fellow citizen of that ‘World’ as politically indispensable? Praise from one propagandist to another? In the American Political Melodrama the question of the hour: who will succeed the,now, eulogized Mr. Breitbart? The crimes of his manufactured antagonists are well documented, Shirley Sherrod,ACORN,NPR,Anthony Weiner. Mr. Breitbart played upon the most precious commodity of American Politics,perceived political respectability as demonstable of legitimately held power, and the subversive power of lies, truth and half-truths endlessly repeated with malevolent intent.

About stephenkmacksd

Rootless cosmopolitan,down at heels intellectual;would be writer. 'Polemic is a discourse of conflict, whose effect depends on a delicate balance between the requirements of truth and the enticements of anger, the duty to argue and the zest to inflame. Its rhetoric allows, even enforces, a certain figurative licence. Like epitaphs in Johnson’s adage, it is not under oath.' https://www.lrb.co.uk/v15/n20/perry-anderson/diary
