Sun Sentinel Decision Not to Endorse Republican Candidate is a Joke, Like Them

The editorial board at the South Florida-based Sun Sentinel has decided not to endorse a Republican candidate in the Florida primary. It’s the first time they’ve made such a decision in five presidential election cycles.

They claimed it was because “the kind of person who should be running is not in the race.” Essentially, they argued Donald Trump, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz are unqualified and unfit to be and run for president of the United States.

Let us be very clear. The Sun Sentinel editorial board is a total joke. They obviously lack the professional and personal ethics to put forward an intellectually sound argument that demonstrates they have the courage of their blatantly partisan convictions.

“Cruz scares us. He also should scare Republicans who want to win in November. Cruz has not earned your vote,” the editorial said.

What scares them, exactly? They couldn’t come up with and put forward a single issue that causes them such trepidation aside from electability?

Yet, they find nothing terrifying about the ongoing electoral success a socialist has had in the Democratic Party primary? Socialism, along with other statist systems of government, murdered over 262 million human beings in the 20th century, alone. It’s called democide. Google it. They all rose to power with the same set of promises Sen. Bernie Sanders and other leftwing radicals hijacking the Democratic Party have made.

But Ted Cruz is scary? Let us remind our media friends that–in those statist, leftwing governments Sen. Sanders has praised over the decades–journalists were always the first to be lined up against the wall.

The editorial board at the Sun Sentinel finds nothing scary about a woman who exposes the most damaging national security secrets to Russia, China and other adversarial nation-states for the sake of her own convenience and privacy? There’s nothing scary about a woman who looks into the eyes of a mother who lost her son in service to our nation, and lies to her face?

We suppose not. We suppose the editorial board at the Sun Sentinel believes Mrs. Clinton, a proven and known serial liar who once claimed she came under sniper fire in Bosnia, over a grieving mother. Pat Smith is a victim of a president’s and wanna-be president’s electoral ambitions, the latter of whom they find fit for the Office of the President.

The same paper that endorsed Barack Obama in 2008 dismissed a wildly successful albeit bombastic businessman as unfit for the same office political hacks have occupied for decades. Donald J. Trump isn’t fit for the Office of the President but a junior senator from Illinois with zero life accomplishments was prepared to be the leader of the free world? A man with no record of excellence–but not Donald J. Trump–was suited to run the largest apparatus in the world?

Speaking of Mr. Obama, who the editorial board endorsed in 2008, he may very well be the only other senator we could find with a worse attendance record in the U.S. Senate than Marco Rubio. We have our own problems with Sen. Rubio, primarily consisting of not keeping his promise to voters to oppose amnesty. But the Sun Sentinel actually cites his retreat from the Gang of Eight as a negative and conveniently–or dishonestly–overlooked their hypocritical criticism of Sen. Rubio’s attendance record.

Florida Republican primary voters might have assumed the same paper that endorsed liberal former Gov. Mitt Romney would continue with their trend and choose Ohio Gov. John Kasich. Unfortunately, according to them, voting for Gov. Kasich is a waste of your vote. He didn’t build a Florida ground operation sufficient enough to impress the intellectuals on the editorial board, largely because he isn’t funded and controlled by Wall Street like their gal.

Readers should just overlook that, too.

The Sun Sentinel has actually done us a service here. They have reminded us why PPD was founded and underscored why the anger among the electorate is actually rational, justified anger.

Voters, particularly Republican primary voters, are sick and tired of intellectually feeble editorials, the defense of policy that doesn’t serve their interests and the incestuous relationship between power-brokers and their media acolytes.

We wouldn’t recommend spending another dime in support of this publication.
