For years – the Sacramento Bee has hemorrhaged subscribers because it seemed like it was published by the Chinese Embassy it was so far to the left.
A recent headline: “GOP Seizes on Libya Issue” is a great example – the Bee is trying to make the biggest scandal since Watergate look like a GOP-led gotcha game. This is what I mean when I talk about left-wing whores. An Ambassador is dead, getting dragged through the streets and Obama is in Nevada. How dare the GOP be upset about the cover-up.
Recently, the Bee made predictable endorsements:
They backhanded Beth Gaines because both she and Andy Pugno are Conservatives. (Must have been painful for them) The irony is that Dave Gilliard – the professional liar attacked Andy Pugno for having a Bee Endorsement in the primary. I predict that Gilliard will send mail to Democrats promoting the Bee endorsement of Gaines.
The Bee endorsed Munger-Backed Rick Bosetti because he decided to come out in favor of raising taxes.
Garamendhi over Kim Vann, Fraud Doctor Ami Bera over Dan Lungren… you get where I am going.
But, in local races – the Bee’s editorial board put down their left-wing partisan Kool-Aid and actually dug in to three city council races.
In Roseville – they endorsed Pauline Rocucci, Bonnie Gore and Carol Garcia. Their rational was excellent and sound. It was amazing. Two of those three were also endorsed by the Placer GOP!
In Rocklin – they endorsed the same three people that the Placer CRA and Placer GOP endorsed: Dave Butler, Ken Broadway and Greg Janda. In their editorial – they set fire to seven term incumbent George Magnusson. It was a very strange feeling reading that editorial.
In Lincoln – I practically had an out-of-body experience reading the Bee endorse two challengers over an incumbent and another member of the “establishment” in favor of the three people the Placer GOP endorsed: Allen Cuenca, David Kawas and incumbent Paul Joiner.
If you’re keeping score – this means that the Sacramento Bee agreed with the Placer GOP in 8 of 9 instances in the City Council Races in South Placer County!
Maybe one of these years – they will step a little further from the Blue Kool-Aid and give some Republicans running against Democrats in partisan runoffs a fairer shot.
Hope springs eternal.
