Titanic to Paul: I Love You, I Love You So Much

For those of us with faulty memories, that old reliable hound dog, the Los Angeles Titanic, zapped another reminder this morning to its shrinking readership about why it is fading into a dinosaurian enterprise.

The Titanic’s sagging left-wing journalists no longer can even over a one-car wreck with a straight face.

With politics, they are practically drunk with lef-wing abandon.

Like much of the far left, the boys at the Titanic have been perspiringly pumping the Klan-style Blame-America, I-Hate-Jews, I-Hate-Blacks campaign of Ron Paul.

Steam streams from the rabbit ears of these single-minded reporters. Willfully, desperately, they are promoting the most despicable bigot in national politics.

In this newspaper last month, Dr. Earl Ofari Hutchinson, an unapologetic leftist, wrote a glistening report on Paul.

Last night in Iowa, Rick Santorium, who wears his Catholic beliefs as proudly as a life-sized cross, essayed one of the great comebacks in recent political competition.

Feh.

Means nothing to the boys at the Titanic.

In the low single digits in polling a few days ago, Mr. Santorum finished in a virtual tie with moneybags Mitt Romney for first place in Iowa, 8 votes out of first place.

Yet the Titanic’s hyperpartisan Washington reporter Paul West and interpretive reporter Mark (I Am Always Angry) Barabak, assigned to the two main stories on the Iowa Caucus, romanced Paul in both of their reports at the expense of Mr. Santorum, who has a saddle full of warm personal stories.

But he is too conservative, too religious, too traditional, too much of a family man for the left-wing hate crowd at the Titanic.

Jew-hating, black-loathing Paul, who says the U.S. is at fault for Sept.11, fits the liberal profile of a desirable politician.

In reality, he wasn’t close to being the story.

From the first precinct reports last night, Messers. Santorum and Romney were tight at the top. Paul, oozing with the kind of disdain the left values, ran third all the way. But for the next morning’s readers, he was the darling of the Titanic’s lopsided love stories.

And that is why, happily, the Titanic’s revenues and circulation are lagging at alarming paces.
