Perhaps the most surreal event of the weekend is that the newspaper that publishes within throwing distance of my house, had its editors write this tepid endorsement.  It is a rather silly little piece of publishing, and makes me wonder why I can’t be someone who gets paid to write.  Let us take the media bullshit detector out and see what we can come up with about this sorry collection of words.

OK folks, I have a challenge for the blogosphere.  The famous blogsphere that found naked pictures of a low life nobody reporter posing as a prostitute (or was it vice versa).  The famous blogosphere that can dig up more dirt on Plamegate than the MSM.  

It is obvious by reading her column that Ann Coulter doesn’t believe in a simple constitutional right to privacy legitimized by Griswold v. Connecticut and Roe v. Wade.

Last night on The Majority Report Paul Hackett (the hero of Ohio) was on the horn along with Kos.  Hackett talked about what needs to happen about Iraq. It made total and absolute sense.  He said it isn’t the military loosing this battle its the civilian leadership.  OK no surprise there, but what he said afterwards made the real sense.  He said the President as Commander in chief has failed to listen to the real experts, the Generals, the whole time.  Hackett went on to say that the only option left is for the President to own up to this mistake, bring together a round table of Generals, and order them to come up with a withdrawal plan.

When did you know it, and more importantly, why aren’t you telling any of your Democratic friends?  We are left on the sidelines, gleaning from press reports when one of our very own political operatives’ wife Mary Matalin was involved in the now implicated White House Iraq Group (a.k.a. WHIG).

Remember 2 years ago when HBO had that ill fated series K Street?  Where the luxurious and lustrous life of lobbyists was intermingled with actors playing out sub-plots?  I thought for sure George Clooney had a winner here.

Then around the 5th week or so, the leak investigation hit Carville and Matlin’s lobby firm.  Matlin was probed, then Carville, and the series took a turn towards less of the reality of politics, and more towards the lives of the fictional characters.

Either way the show got cancelled and little was ever portrayed regarding the Leak Case.  However, as of this week, it seems that the WHIG has come back into play here.  So the scrambled camera shots in the HBO series we know were totally real, and we know that their is information that perhaps James Carville can help us figure out from his very own involvement.

So Mr. Carville, I am sure you have discussed the issue with your wife, what is it that she knows from being on the inside?

Why aren’t you helping those of us here in Left Bloglandia uncover such things?  

If Matt Cooper can come clean I am sure you can do the same?
