The Media's Mock Moral Outrage over Melania Trump 's Speech
On Monday evening, Melania Trump made her first "political wife" speech. It was her first public speech of any kind -- in front of a packed convention center GOP audience, a worldwide TV audience of 35 million, and media standing rows deep around her. She spoke in English -- her mother tongue is Slovenian. She learned German and Slovakian early in life, and French later. English is her fourth language and she handled it perfectly in her maiden effort on Monday. ~~~~~ BUT -- Horror of Horrors -- one paragraph of her speech, inserted by the speechwriter, was used by Michelle Obama in 2008. The words were about working hard to succeed and helping children -- words every American politician and spouse has used for the past 50 years. ~~~~~ But that was irrelevant. Those ordinary -- even trite -- words bruised the tender souls of the mainstream media and Democrat commentators. Their sense of morality -- their high ethical standards -- were deeply offended. ~~~~~ Dear readers, I have only three questions. Where is the moral outrage of the mainstream media and Democrat commentators at Barack Obama's racist attacks on white police? Where is the moral outrage of the mainstream media and Democrat commentators at the lies...lies...lies of Hillary Clinton about Benghazi, even heartlessly lying to the mothers of diplomats killed because Hillary refused to protect them. And, where is the moral outrage of the mainstream media and Democrat commentators at the lies...lies...lies of Hillary Clinton to the State Department she headed, to the President she served, to the American people she wants to lead, and to the FBI charged with upholding the law about her treacherous use of a private unsecured email server system that threatened US security. Rudy Giuliani said Monday night about the mainstream media : "I am sick and tired of the defamation of Donald Trump by the media and the Clinton campaign. I am sick and tired of it. This is a good man! And America should be sick and tired of their vicious, nasty campaign." AMEN. Media morality? Media high ethical standards? A bad joke.

Ethical morality simply doesn't exists in the Media world and it certainly has no home in the democratic party.
ReplyDeleteObama's live is a walking contradiction to to any ethics or morality.
Hillary is a joke who can't spell morality or ethics.
They are both (and the leadership of the Democratic Party also)the 'antithesis' to Honor, Morality, or Ethics. They are void of decency and respectability.
Conducting an issue driven campaign with Hillary on one side is impossible. She lives in the world of deceitful lies and misrepresentations of the and facts.
