But not all of them all the time. It only takes one member of the media to not exhibit such a threshold for a piece of typical BS to get "out there". And then it's pile-on city. Then again, it's not my job to watch the media all day; it's yours. So it's very possible I don't get it and this hilarity threshold is a real and functioning thing. A description of this hilarity threshold along with "contrary to popular belief this is how it works" would be much appreciated.

I've never witnessed the Clintons behaving in a partisan manner. In fact, President Clinton went out of his way to cultivate bipartisanship, even appointing Republicans to some of the highest positions in his government. Isn't it completely insane that the far right wingers engage Hillary Clinton with such venomous huperpartisan attacks, yet the "Librul" media blames and smears Hillary for causing it? Seriously, WTF has the lady ever done which remotely compares to the vile attacks against her?
