Texas Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico was missing from the campaign trail for almost two weeks. But the New York Times chose to devote its time and energy to an unpaid bakery order from six years ago. No, really. Kansas Republican Senator Roger Marshall recently settled the debt that involved 250 tasty treats. Thank goodness!

No, they were too busy cooking up this empty-calorie, sugary diversion.

Marshall should have blamed the flu so ‘journalists’ would have skipped over this tasty tale. Posters noted how ridiculous it was that the New York Times devoted resources to a Republican’s unpaid bill but not the location of an AWOL Democrat politician.

Most of the comedy is unintentional.

Commenters derided the bakery bill story and its importance.

But that would require them to publish something that could hurt a Democrat’s chances of being elected. That’s simply not going to happen.
