Keith O just gave a shining example of true investigative journalism
with the inciteful questions he just asked Richard Wolffe. Brillant - the summary of that segment is that this is the red letter event for this misadministration. Drunk with power, arrogant to the core, this is the scandal that will finally energize and charge up the Democratic Congress to start the machine and take 'em down. Wow, what a segment that was. It put all of the other segments on CNN and MSNBC to utter shame.

2. amen....saw it....and what's gotten into Richard Wofffe...is he feeling guilty
for being one of the WORST corporate shills for the war?

think I'm nuts? just check Glenn Greenwald's coverage of the CSPAN appearance by Tony Snow, Wolffe, David Gregory, and other socalled journalists, spoojing about what it's like to be a WH stenographer.

Josh Marshall is on now, continuing the actual exercise of journalism

Viva Olbermann!

if dating 23 year olds keeps your nose in the game, you go!

8. I'm sure that has something to do with it, but the Herd Instinct is kicking in.
Conventional Wisdom is finally starting to have an effect on all the cowardly stenographers who've helped keep the BFEE afloat for six years, the same ones who lied about Gore and Kerry, and covered up for the chimp have now seen that it's no longer DANGEROUS to speak the truth, because doing so will not leave one out on the fringes of the herd, vulnerable to attack from the vicious jackals of the Right Wing Noise Machine, who pounce at the first sign of independence, and whose deadly attacks will cut off all invitations to the Washington Party Circuit, causing career death, just as fatal as the real thing.

That's all they care about.

5. Yes, because it's not as complicated or dangerous for the Dems as the war

Missed the live one. With all the KO posts this evening, it looks like we missed a good one.
Always happens.

Pshaw!!
