NYT’s: Is This All You Got?

So, now the cable news channels are plastering McCain’s alleged mistress’s photograph all over the airwaves, as if they had any proof that she had an affair with the senator. This is some shameful shit. The New York Times better prove there was an affair, or they are responsible for destroying this woman’s reputation based on almost nothing.

Yes, it is significant that former members of McCain’s staff thought they were having an affair. That’s not enough reason to release the woman’s name and put her photograph everywhere.

Sorry to all of you that think what is good for the goose is good for the gander. I aim to be a little more consistent. Show me that McCain violated the law and I’ll be interested. Show me that he violated Senate ethics rules and I’ll be interested. Right now, this is nothing more than David Brock journalism. Shameful shit.
