Channeling Joe McCarthy, West felt confident in stating that he has ‘heard’ that there are about ’79, 80 or 81′ Communists in the Democratic party, working from within the House to infiltrate our society!
I always love a good example of the patented ‘Fox News method of citing authoritative sources.’ With this right-wing invention you are free to float any manner of craziness, and give it the ring of authenticity. Who can argue with your sources – which are never cited? Proof of factuality consists in prefacing alleged ‘facts’ such as "Obama is a Kenyan, Atheist, Muslim, Black Panther" with these key phrases: "I have heard," "Sources say," "Some say" and "I have it on good authority." I recommend that lefties test drive this method, and see if it is met with the same quiet acceptance that West enjoyed.
