Watching the New Year's edition of Meet the Pres encapsulated what's wrong with the dmn media these days.

No progressive voice -- nor a string liberal one -- to challenge any of this. The implication thus was that calling Howard Dean "crazy"is totally appropriate. That Bush is totally pure in his motives. That the war in Iraq may be a positive historic turning point....blah,blah,blah.
