Driven to Drink 0
Update: I learned this morning (Friday) that this was satire. Two points:
- That will teach me to surf the web when I’m supposed to be listening to the presenter. (No, it won’t).
- It should be true. Someone of position, and not just second-tier bloggers, needs to call out the stupid.
A word to the wise.
“You simply can’t drink every time one of these guys says something silly,” said Surgeon General Vivek Murthy during a Wednesday morning press conference. “We’ve got three candidates who are prone to gaffes — Jeb Bush, John Kasich and Scott Walker — and then a half-dozen obscure goofballs vying with Donald Trump for a little media attention. It’s just a formula for disaster.”
Afterthought:
Silly is right.
Much of what these clowns say is silly–not harmless-silly, but, rather, schoolyard-bully-silly. They need to be called out on it, and you can be certain that the “both sides do it” crowd has no interest in doing any calling out.
