None of the other media people would have blinked if a diary recovered at, say, the Pentagon after 9/11 had included material critical of the Bush administration.<br /><br />This is just another bit of media circling the wagons to protect their darling Obama.

My point is that the bleeding hearts need a wake up call, and the administration should act, and publishing such realities will further that end.

I feel like this blog is becoming a junior version of the National Enquirer - graphic photos for shock value and no other value. And after reading this story several times over I still had a hard time figuing out what you were trying to say. Not your best effort by a long shot - very poor writing. Better stick with local nonsense. And I think you shouild re-think the use of that photo. Over the top and lurid.<br />I know, you will defend the photo, the writing, everything - because you are oh so perfect. I still think the use of this photo is indefensible.
