CNN – Tears of a Clown

“So, the other day, CNN trotted out Watergate bungler John Dean, who has spent his post-Watergate years building up his brand being an anti-Republican squawk-box, who said, quote, I think this president should have been impeached from day one, unquote.

“I guess nobody told him that, in order to be impeached, a president has to actually do something that’s impeachable, so he can’t be impeached “from day one.” Impeachment is a last resort, not the first line of defense against executive branch corruption.

“But I don’t care about anything Dean has to say. The point is, if CNN were a serious news organization, that comment should’ve gotten John Dean booted off permanently. It is not any kind of sober political analysis, it is just a childish hurled by a partisan hack. Note to CNN: this is why we don’t take you seriously. They don’t do actual news any more. They just bring out one guy who says ‘Orange Man bad’, followed by another guy who says ‘Orange Man bad’ followed by a woman who says, ‘Orange Man bad’. This is the sum total of their news coverage.
