5+ years, 4,009 lives, a nation’s security imperiled and a world of hatred and the Post digs in the feces and is positive there’s a pony in there.

The Washington Post is turning its editorial pages into the Jerry Springer show. Just days ago column inches were given to James Carville in order for him to defend his attack calling Bill Richardson a “Judas”. Now, the Post gave room for a rebuttal to Gov. Richardson.
Who f****** cares?
The spat between Carville and Richardson won’t stop soldiers for being killed for a lie, end global warming, ease poverty or rebuild our economy. We are all dumber for the press to keep fueling the “feud”. Personally I’m on the edge of political burnout here and its because of stupid crap like this.
Jo Dee Messina says it all: My give a damn, is in fact, busted.
I see no need for catfighting of the sort embraced by James Carville to be published in the “A” section of one the country’s top 5 newspapers. We have a war on, a fiscal crisis, global hunger, disease and murder, and that merits James Carville writing what amounts to a personal phone call or an e-mail in the news section of the paper.
Cajun, please.
As you may know, the Washington Post’s Howard Kurtz makes it a point of his high profile column to write loving profiles of conservatives in the media. As previously noted, the reach-around now forever known as “The Kurtz” has been given to such journalistic luminaries as Fox News’ Brit Hume (who once claimed Democrats are “rooting” for a loss in Iraq) and Michelle Malkin (who accused John Kerry of self-inflicting a wound to get a purple heart). Today’s conservative serviced with a Kurtz is Fox News’ Karl Rove, former White House political thug and the architect of the Republican loss of the House and Senate. In Kurtz’s hard hitting profile he says:
No one would accuse the newly minted pundit of being balanced, but to the surprise of some critics, he has been generally fair-minded in his commentary. The man long derided by the left as “Bush’s brain” is trying to move beyond his attack-dog reputation.
In this case “fair-minded” can be translated as making stuff up about Barack Obama, while also doing favors for the McCain campaign without noting his affiliation on-air.
Or, as Howard Kurtz would put it: slurp, slurp.
