Kos: First Newsweek, Next CNN?

If it can be said that there comes a time when one is successful you should stop whining and enjoy the success, apparently for Kos, that time is not now. Perhaps a half hour on a network no one watches might help.

Would it kill CNN to not include partisan supporters of the various candidates in their post-debate spin?

Would it kill CNN to disclose that James Carville is a partisan Clinton supporter when talking about the presidential race?

Would it kill James Carville to disclose that he is a partisan Clinton supporter when on the air talking about the presidential race?

Apparently so.

The keepers of media ethics still bring up me and Jerome working for Dean in 2003, even though we both disclosed it prominently and Jerome even quit blogging. But Carville? He's kosher of course.

Being a member of the "club" sure has its benefits.

Yeah, but you guys were big nobodies that no one offline had even heard of.

The idea that politically aware folks watching tv aren't going to know who Carville is rooting for it pretty laughable.

I haven't heard anyone draw attention to the simple fact that although Senator Clinton made the disparaging "suspension of disbelief" remark about General Petraeus, she was not asked about the surge. Richardson, Kucinich, and Obama were asked, but Hillary, who was widely quoted in the media implying that Petraeus was being less than thruthful, got a pass on having to account for how reality has turned out.

Would that have been "piling on"? I guess holding a Democrat to their words is not something the media wants to "get into".

If things are going so well, can we bring our troops home yet?

... ... ...

Republican filibuster says no? Oh. :'(

I do believe that around 30,000 troops are soon to be on their way home, Islamoboob. I'm still trying to remember whether all the troops are home yet from Bosnia and Kosovo. And Germany? And Korea? Care to enlighten me on that? Didn't think so.

The Dems over reached and it is about to come back and bite them on the butt. They have tied themselves so completely to defeat and surrender that as more and more good news comes out of Iraq they start sounding more and more out of touch. The American people will forgive alot for a winner in a war, but they don't like losers.
