[Linked article] Notice that the broken promises are pawned off to nonhuman forms ("his 2008 campaign" pledged ... "It also promised ... ") rather than Obama himself. The verbal gymnastics are an early hint that the main purpose of the essay is to shelter Obama from blame. There's so much more.

Good catch -- author catches a lie-beral JournoListing weasel, Klein, lying like a rug.

Keeping in mind that Klein was the architect of the JournoList and proximately responsible for all its lies and conspiracies great and small.

There was a cartoon circulating a few years ago about “Action Item Man”, where everything becomes an Action Item, but he never really does anything.

I'm pretty sure that Ezra would like that.

Ever catch Klein on TV? Charlie Rose flattered him with a Charlie Rose Power Junkie of the Week (TM) interview recently. Klein's egotism and moral skank just ooze from him. Even his face outs him as one of those eyes-glow-in-the-dark power-mad Bram Stoker characters.

If I ever had the misfortune to glimpse that smirking, self-infatuated little krap weasel on the telly I wouldn't be able to turn the channel fast enough. My stomach isn't as strong as yours.

Don’t spank Ezra Klein too hard. He reportedly enjoys that kind of stuff, you know. Besides, if you took him to the woodshed for a spanking, the rats would leave ASAP.

Around DC he is known as “Little Shit”, which applies to his personality and his writings.

Mr. KAPO, once the pride of the Wash. Post. Now on his own and just as Leftist as before.

I’m pretty sure Fournier never wrote about his misgivings electing Obama until lately when everything is turning to sh!t. I don’t recall him standing up for the GOP or conservatives when they voiced their fears about electing an untested unknown to the highest office in the land. In fact, I’m gonna go out on a limb here and deduce that Ron voted for The One in 2008 and possibly in 2012. I guess he thinks that jumping from the sinking ship now absolves him from his share of the blame. Think again, Ron.

Did you catch obama when he said “We all” need to do something. It’s always someone else’s fault. Sometimes it’s even the American citizens’ fault.

Ezra Klein is deliberately responsible for the leakage of numerous intelligence documents through his precious Journolist. It says a lot about the Hussein administration's incompetence and agenda that he isn't sharing a cell with Bradley Manning right now.

I would argue that neither party functions as a political party today...they both serve as a funnel for special interest groups (from oil and banking, to environmental foundations and gay marriage). You show up...show some money...get a Senator tied into your cause, then build onto it.
