But I am tired of all the whining and criticism of an administration that hasn’t even had time to get fully staffed…

What about people who criticize the administration for not being able to get fully staffed because the people it nominates seem to have been vetted by asking “Hey, does this guy have any problems?” in an empty room? Can they still criticize the administration?

I turned on my car radio on the way home today just in time to hear Mara Liasson repeating this nonsense.

Just explains why one need not spend a lot of time looking at different lefty blogs. They all pretty much echo the same things.

Lefty blogs are all the same? Haw!

Must be a liberal conspiracy!! QIB

Just explains why one need not spend a lot of time looking at different lefty blogs. They all pretty much echo the same things. Obama’s advisors 8:45 conference call, then to Journolist for all the bloggers and liberal media repeaters, then to Shuster-Matthews-Olbernmann-Maddow, then Letterman, Stewart and Colbert, finally next morning’s Today Show and then Gibbs press conference later that morning confirming everything from the prior day to keep it alive.

All slightly different themes on the same message.

Dennis says: “Apparently the two WaPo journalists are not invited to the vast left-wing conspiracy group that is Ezra Klein’s Klein Klub.”

Klein Klub. KK. What? Are you upset about possible trademark violations with regards to your little club?

For the past two years, several hundred left-leaning bloggers, political reporters, magazine writers, policy wonks and academics have talked stories and compared notes in an off-the-record online meeting space called JournoList.

What? People are sending each other messages over this newfangled intertube?

Must be a liberal conspiracy!!

I don’t routinely read these blog sites and rarely comment. But I am tired of all the whining and criticism of an administration that hasn’t even had time to get fully staffed and build some sort of track record of results or lack there of. I think we all should just take a time out and let Obama and his people time to get their legs under them.

Dennis says: “Tell you what, Jack J., when any of Southern Strategy’s inanities become blog topics here, I’ll weigh in. Till then it’s funny watching him do his obsessive-compulsive Rainman imitation.”

It’s obsessive to want someone to answer a legitimate question?

Hardly.

Jack’s right. You are nothing but a coward.

Wow! Most of my post disappeared!

I said the news media, especially newspapers, are dying off because liberal bloggers have exposed the fact that they’ve abandoned their core mission.

Bloggers have memories. Unlike say, David Gregory or Mr. Broder. Bloggers expose the fradulent stories like those of George Will recently and Judy Miller during the Iraq conflict.

The public has seen the lies exposed and have awakened to the fact that the corporate media supports corporate interests–not ours.

The NYT and WaPo are dying. It’s their own fault.

How long till they blame Bill Clinton?
