LOL isn't it tho?

Sheesh.. I'm almost glad they do it. Just shows how out of touch they are in their feeding frenzy - living in their own ideological isolation from Real People.

As the Real People clue in on the feeding frenzy, they feel compelled to polarize just to balance out the Liberal extremism.

Yay. lol

Yep, they're just outing themselves in flyover country as the America-hating fools they are.

After a brief respite, the NYT is back in full throated cry on Abu Ghraib. I am not sure that these stories all made the front page (the NYT web site doesn't indicate page number until the article is a week old). No one can acuse the NYT of pursuing this story with insufficient vigor. The Aljazeera reporters on Saddam's payroll would never have pursued the story this relentlessly, for fear of blowing their cover.

June 3: Complaint Seeks Data on Prisoners[Not front page]

June 4: Abu Ghraib Inquiry Is Said to Focus on Head of Its Interrogation Center

June 5: U.N. Rights Chief Says Prison Abuse May Be War Crime

June 5: Army Opens Investigation of Shooting in Kufa

June 6: Trouble in Private U.S. Jails Preceded Job Fixing Iraq's

June 6: Wide Gaps Seen in U.S. Inquiries on Prison Abuse

June 7: U.S. Releases More Prisoners; Bombings Kill at Least 21 Iraqis

There you go again NY Times! Another Page One article on Abu Ghraib. That is 35 of 38 days.

Jan 8: Lawyers Decided Bans on Torture Didn't Bind Bush

The MSM community will be so outraged by the NYT's gratititous Abu Ghraib overkill, they will award the NY Times a Pulitzer Prize for it (mark my words).

Text there:

New York Times coverage of the Benghazi Consulate Attack: NOTHING on the front page whatsoever! Zero, Zip, Nada !!

This on a day after the Sunday Morning News Shows were lit up with that as their number one topic for discussion.

I recall the Abu Ghraib Prison “torture and prisoner abuse” story ... remember that? The New York Times was all over that story.

Of course, that was when there was Republican in the White House. Even after the story had broken and later when there was NO NEW NEWS to report, the New York Slimes had it on their front page for THIRTY-TWO (32) DAYS back in April and May of 2004!!

Four of our people were killed in Benghazi, Libya. President Obama fiddled while Benghazi burned and our people were killed in a Terrorist attack, and the New York Times decides it is not important enough to report on their front page.

No wonder New York Slimes subscribers are dropping like flies!
