Note to self: If I like something the source is fine, if I don't like it the source sucks |

1. There's your error. When you find out it is the truth you're supposed to dig in your heels |
|
and shout that it sucks anyway.

All to predictable when it comes to posting articles.

It seems that both Daily Kos and Eschaton (or was it Talking Points Memo?) have gotten independent corroboration that the White House was leaning on Reid to negotiate further with Lieberman, despite the official denial from the White House. I didn't drill down into the links, but as Politico should be taken with a grain of salt, I repose a lot of trust in Kos and TPM, as well as Eschaton.
We'll have to see how it plays out, but I too am more than a little tired of being dismissed out of hand for not understanding the subtle nature of the Obama administration's political maneuverings just because they look for all the world like a sell-out of the people who helped put them where they are today.

6. Oh I think Politico is biased as well but to ban them as LBN is stupid, and |
|
I'm willing to see how it plays out but the way things have been going the WH pressuring Reid makes sense...not in a good way.

9. No, but I've noticed that some on DU will use ANY source if it puts Obama in a bad light. |

10. You must post a lot on Chavez Threads :) There is NO truth out there on that topic |
|
Because all sources have a bias.
Hell, I don't even think Chavez exists even....
