It’s All Clear To Me Now

After watching a huge national disaster on the Gulf Coast, a propensity to golf while the world falls apart, a dearth of press conferences, a slew of risible verbal faux pas, a year of ramming unpopular legislation down the peoples’ throats, adopting and accelerating all of the aspects of the current War on Terror Man-Caused Disaster that were considered so noxious three years ago (including every single element of the Patriot Act), and watched epic corruption up to the White House Door, I thought  “When will our media – which was so punctual about “investigating” each of these things before 2009, get on the stick.

Victor Davis Hanson says have no fear!

Somewhere around the millennium, a new style of aggressive, public-interested, and astute reporter began sermonizing in print, advising on the Internet, and lecturing us on television. At the time I mistakenly assumed that reporters were too often partisans who were creating new, almost impossible standards of probity in order to embarrass conservative opponents: they wanted Republican scandal first, news second. But now, I see that they were simply laying nonpartisan new ground rules for the Bush administration so that they could later prove their integrity and professionalism when a member of their own faith would come into the new crucible of public examination. There was never, you see, a hate-Bush media. So we will shortly see that now as they unrelentingly turn their scrutiny on Barack Obama and his legion of ethical and competency lapses.

Onward and upward!

    No, seriously. I want to know. Maybe I should posit this query at the Minnesoros Independent.

    A whore would admit to its’ promiscuous and immoral ways. Most MSM journalists don’t have that level of honesty and integrity.
