    Of course, Iran has been doing this since we left the borders unsecured in this folly of warfare. So, now we're getting a third war of terror for the price of one - one that we're handing the bill to our grandchildren.

    Not one to adhere to the history repeats itself theory - the Liberal WP And NYT take anonymous sources for the rush to War Part II.

    Who is going to print this year's version of Nigerian Yellowcake?

    We're sending the second and third aircraft carriers to saber-rattle near Iran as we speak.

    Wag the Dog W, Wag the Dog. Part 2

    When will Liberal attack-dog media I've heard so much about surface?

    They're focusing on the issues that really matter, such as where Barack Obama went to school as a boy, what airplanes Nancy Pelosi is flying in and who is blogging for John Edwards.

    If the liberal media would stop its fascination with an election that's still 1 1/2 years away and look at government accountability on all levels in all parties and factions and be what journalism was supposed to be before corporates consumed it and redesigned it for its own pockets and political means, we'd be much better off. Instead, we go from mid-terms straight to another series of political races because, well, it's easy to fill column inches and air minutes with pundits.

    Yeah, Fox really should hold its panelists responsible for suggesting Obama would have favored slavery.

    Damn liberal media. Yeah and that liberal icon Glen Beck shouldn't stop showering HIllary with love. Where can I read or hear the liberal point of view in the MSM?

    You're not of our species, are you? The media spends all this time on punditry because it's cheaper than real reporting. As you mentioned, journalism has been taken over by "the corporates." The corporates are concerned with one thing, profits. What on earth does liberalism have to do with any of that? Are you really suggesting that GE, Disney, News Corp., et al, are really giant fronts for leftist movements that will plunder our private property and steal our wives? Or do you just use "liberal media" because it's an easy crutch and you're incapable of thinking for yourself?

    Remember: The media owned by rich white men is liberal.

    Such simpletons.

    Now that's a racist, stereotypical statement.

    Bigot.

    That framework exists and within it a liberal media that gives lip service to accountability - only so far as they listen to people like Kennedy tell them how much he stands for them and swallows it whole.

    Not to keep this going, but I can't think of a single media company whose primary ownership is black or where the publicly-traded company is headed by a minority.
    Maybe I'm wrong, but the Murdochs, Summerstones, Sulzbergers and the rest are all as white as snow.
