A the news that is fit to be buried.

These type of newspapers deserve to go out of business.

However, no Republican lawmaker/leader will do anything at all, and another Democrat scandal will go unpunished.

It doesn't matter, half the freepers concluded that Obama would be good for getting a true conservative in '12. We shall see the outcome of that.

No shock here. Think of the recent LA Times video of Obambi at luncheon for terrorists.

And what response did he get from our esteemed congresscritters ?

Ethics is obsolete .. our Founding Fathers must weep.

As bad as this story is for the NYT (they'll survive, trust me), the real story is what they spiked: collusion between the BO campaign and ACORN.

This is where any investigation should go. The cry should be "Remember Watergate! What did BO know about ACORN and his campaign and when did he know it?" We could say things like, "Nixon had his Plumbers unit, BO has the NYT!"

Apparently the Senate didn’t get a briefing on that committee testimony.
