New Media doing the work of the Lord

I know...that headline sounds a bit over the top and maybe even blasphemous to some. It certainly isn't meant to be either. Allow me to explain.

The story is told in the 8th chapter of the book of John in the New Testament when the vaunted Pharisees brought a woman caught in the act of adultery before Jesus to see how he would deal with her. In their profound arrogance and utter contempt, they eagerly sought to trap Jesus, because the Law of God given to Moses stated that adulterers be put to death by way of stoning.

Much to the chagrin of the Pharisees, Jesus quietly bent down and began writing in the sand; presumedly the names, dates and places to sufficiently indict these bloviating hypocrites of their own sins, which very well may have required the death penalty. Then Jesus said that he who is without sin should be the one to cast the first stone at this humiliated woman caught in adultery. One by one, the elite blowhards slithered away because their own sins were significant and they had no right to cast stones at anybody.

I hope you see the analogy. They didn't have the New Media back in the 1st century, but Jesus didn't need Talk Radio or the Blogosphere to get the lowdown on the scurrilous Pharisees; he knew what motivated them.

Today, we need the New Media and thank goodness, we have a very effective New Media who is acting much like Jesus did in the above scenario.

We see the modern day Pharisees in the Senate grill better men than they could ever be and if it weren't for the New Media to point out the hypocritical shortcomings of the contemptible senators, the masses may tend to side with the meanspirited grillers. But maybe not. You don't have to be a news junkie to be reviled by the arrogant interrogators in Congress. Even the shortest exposure to them is enough to make one sick.

Fortunately, no longer can the hypocritical senators get away with their bad behavior. Too many people are watching them and have immediate access to everything they've ever said or done. They may have forgotten their dubious pasts and foolhardy rantings, but the New Media has not, and because of their unparalleled arrogance they will be made to answer, or be rendered irrelevant...probably the latter.

The Left is by no means dead, but the current generation of bloviating democrats like Kennedy, Schumer, Biden, and their ilk are a dying breed because they have lost their appeal. They've become whacked out, mean spirited, transparent and irrelevant dinosaurs.
