Yes, We Have No Hillary Scandals, Univision Edition

In last night's debate, Jorge Ramos confronted Hillary Clinton about Benghazi and her emails. He forgot to mention that the scandals were based on conservative talking points, not fact.

"Hey, Jorge, your mind is a clusterfuck of bullshit, and I don't mean that in a bad way."

Jorge Ramos, like all debate moderators since Jim Leher, doesn't want to appear that he's giving a pass to any candidate, especially Hillary Clinton. So he goes hardball on Benghazi and the email server.

Trouble is, the "scandals" are based on made-up shit, then recycled through the media, just as Ramos did in the debate he moderated. This does not make him look tough, it makes him look idiotic in the way most Fox News hosts look idiotic.

Someone tell Jorge this is the way media bullshit works, unless he already knows.

About the American Human

The American Human is written by Calvin Ross, a retired teacher who at various points in life has been a musician, woodworker, restaurateur, narrator, English teacher in Japan, novelist, technology journalist, and private tutor to Japanese children here in the U.S.

Happily residing in the wine country of Sonoma County north of San Francisco, Calvin has lived in the Philippines, the Netherlands, and the aforementioned Japan, as well as in Chicago, Colorado, Georgia, and many different towns in California, including, of all places, the Mojave Desert.

Calvin, you may note quickly, is a liberal progressive who doesn't think being called a socialist is all that bad, especially since he sort of would like living in Denmark if it weren't so cold. He blogs because he can.
