The New York Times has run at least eleven articles since Friday about Obama’s “bitter” comments.
But no matter what search terms I use, I can find exactly zero articles from the New York Times about the April 11 ABC interview in which President Bush admitted that he approved of his top advisors’ authorization of the “enhanced interrogation” or torture of al Qaeda suspects.
Just in case the New York Times is looking, here are its eleven missing links to the most important story of the weekend:
Bush personally approved Administration’s torture plans
Bush personally approved Administration’s torture plans
Bush personally approved Administration’s torture plans
Bush personally approved Administration’s torture plans
Bush personally approved Administration’s torture plans
Bush personally approved Administration’s torture plans
Bush personally approved Administration’s torture plans
What a sorry state of affairs. Please tell me you repeated the same link eleven times for effect, & not that you couldn’t find any other MSM links.

Taking a back seat to the latest Hillary spin.
Respectfully,
He said it. He needed to clarify it.
She made a legitimate political move based on his inability to be clear about what he meant regarding the demographic he was speaking about.
And to be clear, I understood what he was saying. Though, as a “working class white”, I’ll admit there was an initial twinge of resentment for being lumped in with Bible thumpers, gun owners and bigots.
Otherwise, I have enough bitterness of my own to deal with without getting pissed at some politician for his poorly chosen words.
I am getting tired though of being assumed of as racsist and uneducated because I choose to work in a field that defines me as a lower class. My skin color is completely by accident. I’m a rainbow inside.
