And why do any of them still have jobs?

Because liberals don't take out their trash .. they promote them

How Wrong Could The Media Get?

How much can they hate Bush, Cheney, Rove....?

There's no limit to either.

Hey, let's be fair. The media had sand kicked in its' eyes along with Fitzgerald. His news conference becomes pretty much of a sham with the Armitage revelation. Fitzgerald should be indicted for "LYING".

"The media had sand kicked in its' eyes along with Fitzgerald."

Fitzgerald lied to the American people, but not to the media.

He and other lawyers told the media way back (before Miller even went to jail) that Fitzgerald knew who Novak's source was.

And it was mentioned in Fitzgerald's filings to the court, which the media seems to have had access to.

They knew, they lied.

And what about all the politicians who mislead us about Wilson? Who flat out lied to us?

Shouldn't they be impeached?

You are correct. The scumbags knew all along about Armitage but the mystery is how they could have thought that Armitage would not eventually be exposed. For one thing, they knew that Novak knew. That's the part that makes no sense.

Kerry's election in '04 was probably supposed to facilitate the burying of the story. After all electing Kerry was also the PURPOSE of the story, so it could have been spiked once that was accomplished.

But then many kept it up after November '04. That is puzzling. Could Hissy Matthews and Liar O'Donnell have been out of the loop, or did they just start believing their own B.S.?

Of course in part it was the insatiable hatred and willful delusions of the left-wing blogosphere (and the desire of mediots to be lauded thereby) that kept things going.

The media doesn't care if it's right or wrong, factually or morally.

The Plame story was a complete success. It was used to beat the President down for a year.

The whole thing is proof the MSM suffers from Bush Derangement Syndrome. And no chance of ever recovering either.

I am still waiting on my local paper, the Winston-Salem Urinal, to say ANYTHING about the Armitage/Plame story. Not a peep out of them. What are others' local papers saying, if anything??

Now this is what I'm talking about!! Impeach all politicians who played a role in propping up this lie. Fire fitz and file charges. File charges against Wilson and his Wife for conspiracy. File charges and fire reporters who knew of this information and suppressed it, including Isikoff and his sidekick.

Well... I'm sure people who were riding the fence on whether or not the MSM is biased have had an eye-opening experience, but there are others who do not and will not care at all.

Well .. you can believe whatever you want .. but Hillary and the Wilsons have a history. The Wilsons used to hold fund raisers for Hillary which shows their close relationship.

.. .. if there isn't anyone on our side with the spine [and nuggets] to address this correctly , for a well deserved full investigation ,...

I for one, will be so mad that I could chew a box of 16p nails before breakfast

... btw , today's NYT [Slimes] deadTree edition ,... NOT ONE PEEP , which tells me there is a "party line" story being crafted

oh Ronaldus Magnus , please , Lee Atwater , somebody , reach across and give some of our guys a good swift Cosmic Kick

... this is all tee'd up , if this chance to expose the MSM is left to rot in the field , and then the fertile new ground we could have would be unseeded , fallow

... if our guys blow this opportunity , to nail UpChuck Schumer and the others , then we really know they're not worth a cup of warm spit

[...couldn't pour stale beer out of an old boot, if the directions were printed on the heel ]

The silence of the media on this story is pretty surprising....even though they would spin it as it doesn't really matter. Rove leaked anyway(see Chuck Schumer on yesterday's FNS). There is something else going on behind the scenes and the media are being silent on it for a reason. I presume the story will break open after the 9/11 remembrances, or maybe just before. I would expect Team libby to have issued some kind of statement...perhaps they did file something in the court, or will tomorrow. I believe that all charges against Libby will be dropped soon, and there will be some breath-taking news coming out about the real conspiracy (Joe Wilson/John Kerry/DNC/MSM collusion) to unseat a President and undermine the war on terror. Or perhaps the Rocky memo will raise its ugly head again...but something is going on, thus the silence. jmho of course.
