Execution Doesn’t Count as “Abridging Freedom,” Right?

killthenyt.jpgNext week on ‘Reliable Sources’, a roundtable on Bill Keller: Hanging or public hanging?

Meanwhile:

When asked to back up the White House accusation that a recent New York Times story put American lives at risk by disclosing vital secrets to terrorists, the best press secretary Tony Snow could do yesterday was this: “I am absolutely sure they didn’t know about SWIFT.
[…]
SWIFT has a Web site, at swift.com.

Jesus I didnt honestly thing the Republicans could get any dumber, but here they are saying one thing while even a 6 year old can surf to the proof that they are wrong... ON THEIR OWN GOD DAMN SITES.

How can anyone these days say there is a liberal bias in these papers, when even historically conservitive papers are calling shenanigans on them

Also, Mary Cheney is a lesbian.

Yeah, I said it.

So this morning I was watching a local FOX station and they did a news story about how vulnerable our Los Angeles ports are to terrorism; why a strike at the port would devastate the national economy, and how there is no way to stop it. Hello NewsBusters? Can we get someone on these guys please?

NOOO! If they kill the Times, then where am I going to get my fix of high society wedding announcements?

My week just cannot begin without the heartwarming tale of one WASP who went to Harvard, and another WASP (who is keeping her name) who went to Yale. It was a love-hate relationship from the start, you know. But somehow, against all odds, love [sniff!] blossomed.

That, and hard-hitting, provocative sports coverage from the acid pen of George Vescey. It's the best. Investigative reporting? Bah! Can't hold a candle to sports coverage with a healthy dose of pretension and ennui.
