You know what is weird? When the journalists who have been objectively reporting your newses start taking jobs with the new president, and you begin to wonder if maybe they were lying to you all the time with their biased “facts” and “analysis.” It’s weird until you consider that nobody in media has jobs anymore, so of course if Barack Obama says “Hey would you like to tout the benefits of light rail for me?” you will jump at that in a heartbeat.
Which brings us to the sad tale of MSM sellout and professional in-the-tanker Jill Zuckman, late of the Chicago Tribune, who will now serve as the director of public affairs for the Transportation Department and assistant to Ray LaHood. She follows such other former journalists as Peter Gosselin, Jay Carney, Sanjay Gupta, Linda Douglass and of course DAVID AXELROD into Obama’s tank, which will soon employ everyone in America.
Zuckman to Obama Administration [FishbowlDC]

I thought her assignment was to uncover and expose whoever might be having buttsecks in the administration. Wouldn’t buttsecks fall under the general rubric of “Transportation?” I mean we’re talking tunnels, right?
More light rail! More heavy rail transpo corridors! Eminent domain to acquire the land! No more bridges to nowhere! No more petroleum-based exurbs fed by empty interstates!
This job’ll be cake.
I would rather have them on the public payroll instead of staying in their journalism jobs and pretending to be unbiased, like that dipshit with the AP who was sucking off McCain at every turn. Or that clown who was actually getting White House munney to spew their propaganda while he was still on his paper’s payroll.

The tank is full of accidental buttsecks, because it is so full, and there is no room for being naked without intercourse.
The fallacy in your logic is that Obama will be impeached in the next two weeks. Or do you think that Karl Rove, Rush Limbaugh, DICK Morris, Sean Hannity and the rest of Fox News all can be wrong?
Also, the Obama administration just announced it’s creating a Department of Ancillary Strategic Systems and will be putting William Kristol in charge. Apparently at the last cabinet meeting, someone said “Who are we going to get to head up ASS?” and of course everyone immediately thought of the same candidate.
[re=244317]Lionel Hutz Esq.[/re]: If the last eight years have taught us anything, it is that the bag of dicks you enumerated can indeed be wrong, and in fact has enver been anything else.

She, like many, will find her bread well-buttered by serving the Great White Father in Washington. OH WAIT! Not White Father. Um. Half-breed Muslin Father?
….Obama’s tank, which will soon employ everyone in America.
Tanks do not employ people. They drown them.
I can imagine her nickname in high school.
Certainly easier on the eyes than Gergen or Salinger.
News in what respect, Charlie? Everyone knows all media is librul and gay for B.Hussein Obama. Except the Wasilla Thrifty Saver. Also.
so of course if Barack Obama says “Hey would you like to tout the benefits of light rail for me?” you will jump at that in a heartbeat.
I would do it, and I don’t know anything about transportation or secretaries or laws or economics or facts or government or really much of anything about anything except buttsecks which I never talk about except on Wonkette and street corners and in prison cells.

The Gupta guy was originally not really a journalist, as in career journalist. He was a medical official who fell, somehow, questionably, into being some blowhard talking-head on cable television–and irritated most of the nation in the process. We wouldn’t list him in the real “journalism” category.
But the whole issue is a non-story when every facet of journalism is firing scores of people—talented, good, strong, hard-working people–every week.
So if you get a job offer, no matter what it is, you take the job offer. End of story.
