Greetings from a Blue State

TODAY'S TOPIC:
Q: WHEN IS THE PRESS TOO LIBERAL?
(A: WHEN IT'S ASKING YOU QUESTIONS TO SUPPORT YOUR POSITION.)
Q: WHEN IS THE PRESS THE NATION'S FRIEND?
(A: WHEN IT'S PROTECTING YOU FROM A CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION.)
...as told by Karl Rove?
 
1.. Interestingly, the principles of the mainstream media, labeled "liberal media" by the ultra-right, are protecting someone from the ultra-right who has shown no principles at all.  Oh, and what about Robert Novak who actually wrote the article exposing one of our spies? Has he told? Is he at risk for outing a spy? No.. only the reporters who refused to do so...and who now protect that same group to uphold an age-old principle. By the way, Tim Russert was also questioned, and, like Novak, either gave up his source or was deemed suitably conservative by this witch hunt.
