— shouldn’t the media be devoting greater coverage to the basic matter of whether or not we still live in a nation of laws?

Yes, Yes, a thousand times Yes! I hope everyone poses this very question to the media via email, phone calls, letters to the editor, etc. We may not get them to live up to their responsibility but at least we will let them know that we know that they are derelict in their duty to the people of the U.S. And if any of them have any integrity left there is a small chance that they will do the right thing.

It is a bit outrageous that thereis
no outrage. What exactly will it take to wake us from our slumber, America?

The end of Everyday Low Prices.

Millions marched before the invasion, we were waiting for the rest of America. It is a myth that there was no outrage. More of the MSM’s inaccurate coverage

It didn’t occur to MSM to “go gracefully into that sweet goodnight” by connoting Oscar as a Comfort Cat rather than a terrifying spectre and harbinger of the Grim Reaper. eeeek!

I am NOT a Comfort Cat!

Dammit.

I am an evil, left-wing, soul-sucking, cat. I *AM* a Grim Reaper, a terrifying spectre. With whiskers.

It was really disappointing to hear the Hospice staff commentary submerged
by the idiotic MSM voiceovers. Ah nuance and subtle energy.
Unless it’s Shock and Awe, they’re stumped.

imho, the most salient POV consistencies between
the MSM thread on Oscar and non-thread on Gonzo/BushCo is:
Who’s gonna die next? and Not me!

One thing that stood out to me on the Stephanopoulous show was how Cokie Roberts incessantly interrupts Fareed Zakaris. She barely lets him get a word in edgewise. For me Zakaris represents a wider world view on the issues and Cokie and the Cameras kept squeezing him out. I think Cokie Roberts dismissiveness of Zakaris and of his views represents most Americans and of course the way the Bush administration treats this wider view with disdain and disrespect.

I generally do not like to bring up what people are wearing, but this week it smacked me right in the face. Senator Clinton, Cokie Roberts and Andrea Mitchell all had on the same style jacket and almost the same color, must be the latest rage in D.C.

To continue with the trivial but telling — It struck me that all the Sunday talking heads, but especially Cokie & Andrea, brought up Edwards’s comment on Hillary’s jacket, but were oblivious to it’s being, not a comment on her clothing choice, but a put-down of the media’s obsesssion with haircuts and cleavage. How obtuse & humorless can these people be?

Somebody needs to put a copy of the constitution on a hospice bed and see if Oscar curls up next to it.

Too crowded. It’s surrounded by Republicans.

I doubt very much whether Slate is going to revive the Gonzometer.

Bah. They can’t even revive Chris Hitchens from his drunken stupor. It was funny watchin’em try though.
