Heres another one from the Post:

SUCCESS IN IRAQ: A MEDIA BLACKOUT

If you rely on the so-called mainstream media, you may have difficulty answering those questions these days. As Iraqi and Coalition forces pile up one success after another, Iraq has magically vanished from the headlines.

Want a real “inconvenient truth?” Progress in Iraq is powerful and accelerating.

Here’s my favorite part:

To be fair to the quit-Iraq-and-save-the-terrorists media, they have covered a few recent stories from Iraq:

* When a rogue US soldier used a Koran for target practice, journalists pulled out all the stops to turn it into “Abu Ghraib, The Sequel.”

Unforgivably, the Army handled the situation well. The “atrocity” didn’t get the traction the whorespondents hoped for.

Whorespondents. I like that. I’ve got a new word to play with!!

Perhaps the editor’s bias is showing.

You mean the same editor who has 6 George Soros books?? You think that this guy might be biased?? – Lorica

Color me unimpressed.

What strikes me as funny is how he takes assuptions and tries to make them facts.

Libby and Rove close a door and meet together – so OBVIOUSLY they must be getting thier stories straight, and they are up to no good. Because he has never seen them meet before.

I never seen open heart surgery, doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen.

I think there is questions to be asked, yes, but do I put serious weight to his book as the end all expose of the Bush Administration? No.

Now McClellan is to tesify under oath before congress.

The circus is in town and it has puppets and puppetmasters, watch them pull the strings and make the puppets dance. Come one, come all.

Once there was money in it.

Just can’t muster any degree of respect for the clown. Where was his sense of outrage and injured integrity all these years? I don’t have to crack open his book to tell it fails the sniff test, and so does he. He puts me in mind of another Scott, Ritter, who suddenly did a 180 regarding Saddam Hussein just as soon as the check cleared.

Calling him a mercenary whore stains two comparatively noble professions by unfairly associating them with this self inflating buffoon.

Sure seems like it.

The company that published Scott McClellan’s new Bush-bashing book is Public Affairs Books, and their Editor at Large is a guy named Peter Osnos: About The Century Foundation.

Peter Osnos, who wrote Wednesday that he “worked very closely” with Scott McClellan on McClellan’s new book published by PublicAffairs which Osnos founded, is a liberal whose publishing house is affiliated with the far-left The Nation magazine and the publisher of The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder. PublicAffairs has a roster of authors who are nearly all liberals and/or liberal-leaning mainstream media figures, including six books by far-left bank-roller George Soros.

Puppetmaster behind the puppet?

So why aren’t there more liberal voices on Fox News, Kara Swisher asked? Murdoch replied that he would hire a liberal voice if he could find one that was strong enough.

“Would you hire Keith Olbermann?” Swisher asked.

Murdoch’s response: “No, I fired him five years ago… He’s crazy.”

Interesting article from the NY Post. I especially like the following:

What don’t the [Iraq War] critics like? Democracy? The defeat of al Qaeda? Muslims turning to the US military for help? Troop cuts? The dramatically improved human-rights situation? What’s the problem here?

The answer’s simple: Admitting that they’ve been mistaken about Iraq guts the left’s argument for political entitlement. If the otherwise deplorable Bush administration somehow got this one right, it means the left got another big one wrong.

Indeed. Which is why (for the time being) we will have Scott McClellan 24/7 from the MSM. The Narrative is right even if the facts are wrong!

“I have a higher loyalty,” he told NBC’s “Today Show.” “A loyalty to the truth and values that I was raised on.”

Ahhhh yes the old “higher loyalty” line. Seems to me that is usually the last refuge of a scondrel. We all know that he only did this to make himself wealthy. He knew if he pandered to the left, that those tools would eat up his book. You have to wonder why so many good people take up the mantle of the Clinton’s just for wealth. – Lorica
