The only difference is that the Washington Post and by inference all its sister papers are profoundly disinterested in uncovering anything that could prove embarrassing to their favored one. If any Washington Post reporter today showed anything like the tenacity and initiative of Woodward and Bernstein digging into current White House illegalities, that reporter would be reassigned to the Obits at lightning speed, and if that didn’t get the message across, he or she would be fired and blackballed.

The Washington Compost may become interested, however, if they conclude early enough that President Obama is unelectable.

Actually Susan Schmidt did a pretty good job on exposing Whitewater. Hmm, I wonder whatever happened to her.

The post today is part of the DNC and administration (imo). They feature articles by Erza Klein who started Journolist, that made a coordinated broad media effort to bury Reverend Wright news during 2008.
Klein also claims the Constitution is outdated, it is impossible to understand because it is over 100 years old.

I am afraid you are exactly right there. If the stories are going to go anywhere, we have to make sure that at least the Conservative press covers it. Combined with sites like FR we’re too big to ignore completely now.

Exactly. The great zero may not win re-election, but absolutely nothing of consequence will happen to him or his sycophants.
