Re: MTP, this is from NRO this morning:

Scandalous [Jonah Goldberg]

Today's "Meet the Press" roundtable, still going, is a scandal of media egocentrism. With the exception of Bill Bennett, the groupthink on display is staggering. Criticizing the media is inherently silly according to this papal conclave of journalists. Any criticism is either an example of know-nothing populism or cynical electioneering, according to Dana Priest, Bill Safire, John Harwood et al. Journalists are always heroes and leakers should never be prosecuted. We're always right, no matter what.

It's just an outrageous display of self-importance.

LOL. I think Jonah Goldberg (who has a lovely mother, by the way) has pretty much captured the MTP roundtable.
