John, when it was Bush calling someone a "major league asshole" it was fodder for posts here for a week. But now those who speak have no "integrity?'

Did the press have an agreement ahead of time as they did about this event?


Does it matter?  Since when do Journalist "agree" on what is and is not news? 

And if Obama had said something about Merkal's ass that was sexist?  Or called someone a "Faggot" or other derogatory term?  You wouldn't want anyone in the press to report that because of some "agreement"?  Would you have supported this agreement if it were President Bush instead of Obama?


Tell me..   When the Journolist scandal broke...   Were you supporting the Journalists who were colluding to determine the theme of stories inorder to downplay problem areas for Obama?     Would you have supported Journolist if they had been supporting McCain instead of Obama?
