What will the Times claim next–that McCain lost his citizenship because of all the time he spent in North Vietnam?

It isn’t their bias that disgusts me; it’s their claim to objectivity.

I saw a poll at Rasmussen that put approval for the NYT at 24%. Lower than Bush’s. And much lower than McCain’s.

I think that we are giving the New York Times more credit for credibility than is deserved.

The Times recent attempts at smearing McCain are the result of an internal battle for control of the Times. Pinch Sulzberger will soon be leaving the Times.

We should all ignore anything they say until more responsible shareholders give Pinch the Punch.

That is precious. The haughty NYT accusing someone else of using a “tone of belittlement.” Pot. Kettle. Black.

Summary of the majority of comments at the link: Bush’s war, blah-blah-blah, polls show this and that, blah-blah-blah, yes we can!

A regular Algonquin Round Table.

Perhaps they could have said:

Responding to the remarkably stupid comment made by Senator Barack Obama that the United States could always go back into Iraq……

nahhh, that won’t happen.

And when I asked the troops if they wanted to go home as soon as possible, they said that they miss home but feel invested in Iraq. They have lost many friends and want to be a part of the humanitarian progress they now feel is possible.
