It was a good article pointing out some political spin and getting to the facts until near the end.

Why make the completely unsupported assertion that Rove is behind this? Has this guy been reading the New York Times to much, and started buying into the theory that Rove is behind everything that happens? Even if he does believe it, why make the jump from an article dissecting the facts to an unsupported claim? It doesn't help his credibility.

I have to agree with you. Mulshine has a habit of adding a gratuitous slap at the Bush administration any chance he gets.

Since Mulshine was one of the people who helped open my political eyes years ago, I cut him some extra slack but yes, it is wearisome.
