MSNBC's Josh Barro defends Koch Brothers as "Imagined Cartoon villans." Says they're acting in a principled way!!!

Send corporate apologist Josh Barro to Fox News, please anyone? 

The media, through relativism, allowed the right wing to go bat shit crazy. Spewing destructive nonsense should have been challenged by the media. Well, that didn't happen.

MSNBC's Josh Barro would happily allow the Koch brothers to turn the U.S. into their own dystopian playground because they sincerely believe in their cause. They're not bad people really, despite encouraging people to not have health care. It's just a difference of opinion.

This is one of the most blatant examples of media relativism I've seen in a long time. It's painful to watch this drivel. Wonder no more how we got this point. The Cliven Bundy's of the world aren't a part of the debate, they're a part of the problem. Really. 

Barro's hat tip to Humpty Dumpty:

Barro: "You're going to mispredict their actions if you assume that they're behaving in a completely self dealing way rather in a principled way that happens to be to their benefit."
