After Fetterman's debate against Dr. Oz, the media gaslighting has ramped up to truly monumental proportions. Before long he will have checked out, in the eyes of the media, to be the most healthy and virile man to have ever run for any elected office.

They say the exact opposite of what you can see with your own eyes.

Apologies in advance for using the so worn and tired “gaslighting” metaphor but there is literally no other name for what the national media have been doing for weeks as we head into what should be an absolute blowout election for Republicans.


Have you heard that two very important figures heading into the midterms, President Biden and Democrat Pennsylvania Senate candidate John Fetterman, are in the best shape of their lives? They’re, like, iron man marathon ready. They’re, like, 1600 SAT score sharp.


If that hasn’t been your unshakable impression of these two men all along, then I guess that’s your fault for choosing to believe what’s right in front of your face rather than what the media tell you is in front of your face.


MSNBC host and Washington Post writer Jonathan Capehart recently conducted an interview with Biden. The moment that earned the most attention on social media was when Biden appeared to be sundowning in the middle of being asked about whether he would run for reelection. “Dr. Biden is for it?” asked Capehart, referring to the president’s wife. Squinting at the floor and slowly bobbing back and forth, it was unclear what was happening. Had Biden just retired for a nap on camera?


“Mr. President?” Capehart said. “Oh!”


Biden had appeared to come to! He even managed to offer that his wife believes his presidency is “very important.”


It was like that suspenseful scene in Peter Pan when Tinkerbell’s spark has almost died, but a round of applause re-illuminates the fairy. She lives!


More remarkable than Biden’s flickering ether, though, was Capehart’s insistence afterward that what everyone had just witnessed was actually a display of virile manhood.


“Sure, Biden is getting old,” wrote Capehart on Tuesday. “But the almost-octogenarian I interviewed was fit and eager to take on the decisions that land on a president’s desk.” He said that Biden “loves” and “relishes” being president. What a stud!


As for that awkward mental stall, Capehart said Biden had “looked at me as if to say, ‘Brother, you know I’m not going there,’ which I took as my hint to end the interview.” See there? All is on the up and up with this fine specimen of manliness.


The case of John Fetterman is even more brazen. Pennsylvania voters and anyone else who watched the debate between Fetterman and Oz this week were treated to perhaps the saddest meeting between two political opponents in a crucial race that might determine which party controls the Senate. There have been signs all along that Fetterman, who suffered a severe stroke in May, is not in optimal health condition, but so many in the media said it was nothing of concern.


After an NBC reporter interviewed Fetterman and observed, “it wasn’t clear he understood what I was saying,” Kara Swisher of The New York Times took it upon herself to rebuff the implication. “Sorry to say but I talked to @JohnFetterman for over an hour without stop or any aides and this is just nonsense,” she said on Twitter.


The women of ABC’s “The View” also angrily defended Fetterman’s honor, accusing the NBC reporter of breaching some non-existent rule of ethics by describing what she saw (formerly a practice known as “journalism”), and maintaining how normal it is for ordinary people to need closed-captioning for everyday communication. Even ones who aren’t deaf. Especially ones who aren’t deaf!


Unfortunately, none of that was true. Fetterman’s debate performance revealed him to be incapable of fluidly expressing his thoughts, incoherent in some verbal outbursts, and unconvincing in attempts to defend his positions. He was incapacitated in every sense of the word.


But I’m sure Kara Swisher enjoyed a seamless conversation with silver-tongued Fetterman all on her own.


They say the exact opposite of what you can see with your own eyes. Sorry again, but there’s no other word for what they’re doing.

I wonder if Al Franken should write a new "Lies and the Lying Liars who Tell Them" book only it's about the left this time

We watched the debate. Sorry, but Fetterman was a mess. It was embarrassing. But I knew before the ink was dry that the liberal media would spin it. It’s like the Emperor’s New Clothes.

Can't really divorce this from the politics, but there's more than one side to this issue.

Rhetorical: What kind of lowlife scum are so desperate that they would take two barely-there, empty heads with bodies and prop them up in chairs to fill a seat just because it has a "D/R" on it?

Biden needs to be in the Sunnydoodle Rest Home and Fetterman needs to be in rehab. THAT would be in the best interest of the individuals from a humanitarian standpoint. Neither has any business on the public stage, running for public office, where their decisions affect the lives of millions.

Biden wants to ride his bike and eat ice cream. So does my 5 years old grandson :rolleyes: While the affects of stroke vary by individual, the tell-tale adverse effects leaning toward the severe side are obvious to me (having the been there done that card) in Fetterman. It takes time, and rehab to get anywhere near back to one's previously normal state of (dys)function.

There shouldn't even be a question here. The people shouldn't be allowing. The evil (and I mean nothing short of "e-v-i-l") that is doing this to these two human beings just to maintain control in government and of the people is above the pale and I hope anyone involved gets their just due.
