“...Now, they’re hammering the president with tough questions along the lines of, “What did he know and when he did he know it.” They’re questioning his honesty. Journalists are finally doing their job. So let’s give them one cheer, but only one. Journalists, you see, like Mr. Obama’s fellow Democrats, have made a decision: They’re not going down for the count, not for his blunders, no matter how much they like this president. But that may very well change...”

Well, it's too little and too late. If their doubt and condemnation would be as vigorous and unconditional as their abjectly servile adulation of the ‘campaigning Obama’ or the ‘Presidential Obama’, then I would have to applaud them.

As it is, the recent MSM ‘challenge’ to the ACA failure, etc... is TOO pathetically lukewarm and grudging to qualify as REAL JOURNALISM...!!

For me, the MSM can never recover their integrity or their status as the watchdog of the Public Interest.

If they cannot/will not be as inimical to the flaws and failures of ONE PARTY as they are of THE OTHER, then they have forfeited their status. PERIOD!

They are only “hammering “ the president now because it’s between election cycles. Rest assured, the second democrats and republicans are up for election, the media will be back to slobbering all over the democrats.

The media supports the Left, as sure as the sunrise.
