Look behind you. You passed it a few steps back. It was labeled 'Integrity'

A couple of years ago a friend of mine warned me to be wary of the phony left. He mentioned Salon at the time, but he also could have mentioned MSNBC. I told him he was being paranoid. Now I realize he was right. And we're fucked.

What strikes me is that we're now also supposed to align ourselves with media brands for easy labeling. Fuck that. I watch Olbermann because I hold similarly opinions to his on a range of issues and like the way he synthesizes and presents the information. I also like a lot of the people he books, like John Dean and Jonathon Turley. Does it make me a liberal? Probably. Does it determine my responses to a host of hypothetical situations? Fuck you.
As a very regular viewer (so shoot me) of his show, I take the good with the bad. Not a fan of worst persons, his "feud" with O'Reilly. Love the special commentaries. They're well written and generally about things I believe very strongly in.
What should concern everyone reading this story is the very apparent corruption of the whole system. Does anyone else feel like they're being played as rubes by Wolffe and Bartlett? Fuck them, too. But thank them for revealing how utterly shallow and dishonest the whole shit show really is.
So...you want to define me by that, go ahead. There's a lot of crap to watch/read/listen to. And there are a lot of opinions out there, too, each unique in its own way. Like a snowflake. Or an asshole.

I've noticed. Good job. Sometimes a "You are awesome" is counterproductive to "You can do better."
But positive reinforcement is always necessary at strategic times. Just not the wrong times.

That would be a quandary alright. After a curious delay, he finally linked to the Jane Harman story, playing down the AIPAC aspect. Certain patrons cannot be pleased.
But he's probably tired of carrying water that is certain only to douse his tenuous claims to journalistic independence.
And if so, he's correct to be afraid of disappointed "friends" and the potentially ugly consequences of their disappointment.

It's okay to remain firmly in your (Four Seasons-esque) closet. We all need to respect one another's privacy, especially in this so-called information age where half-truths and innuendo are treated as biblical truths.
That said, could you PLEASE respond to my email about the dry cleaning bill for getting your shit stains out of my silk Undergear underoos? You promised that you would pay for the dry cleaning or replace them and I haven't heard a word!
Love,
