Dumb commentary from traditional media folks isn't exactly hard to find. However, some times these people are so forehead slappingly dumb, that they need to be singled out for individual distinction.
Take Jennifer Rubin's atrociously stupid Commentary piece today.
How can it be that The One is in a dead heat, that the bounce — if the mini-rise in a couple of tracking polls can even be called that — is already subsiding? There was The Speech! The media all told us he was fabulous! Several explanations are possible.
First, the Denver bounce met the Sarah Palin bounce and the two cancelled each other out. It seems that the appearance of the mother of five with plenty of moxie and anecdotes (and a healthy dose of executive experience) was every bit as exciting and uplifting for McCain as the Temple of Barack address was for Obama. Despite the loony blogosphere conspiracy theories and tasteless attacks against her, the public is intrigued and delighted by her. Hence, she wiped out whatever memories there remained of Obama’s speech after the last firework faded from the sky over INVESCO field.
Oh really now, Jennifer with two Ns, Obama's convention bounce is canceled out by McCain's Palin bounce?
OH SNAP!
Jennifer with two Ns, for your totally lack of including any information that runs counter to your narrative, you are this day's biggest media jackass.
And that's This Day in Jackassery.
