I call bull on this cover-your-behind of a story from the Times. It truly is a slap in the face to every person who ever asked why the Times can never seem to report anything other than the negative from Iraq. It represents a tacit admission that this isn’t their war becasue this isn’t their (read: Democrat) government.

Yesterday, while flipping channels, I came across a news-blab show on Fox. They were discussing the large number of mosques that have recently been built in the suburbs of D.C. and how many of them were funded with Saudi/wahabbi money. When one of the guests was pointedly asked why the press has failed to report this her response was ‘well the government…’

Amazing, they tell us we need a free press to be a watchdog for government failure and abuse but when the press fails they get a free pass and pawn blame off on the government.
