Dems Determined to Ignore Progress in Iraq
NATION/POLITICS
COMMENTARY
One story at a time, the news about Democrat disunity on Iraq is bleeding out into the world. The story has been circulating in the blogosphere since Sen. Lieberman made his speech on Iraq last week, but it has hardly popped up on the mainstream radar. Instead, the press have been relentlessly pounding home Sen. Murtha's "broken" army remarks.
The more the press plays up one story and ignores the other story, the more biased the press appears. You only need to surf the blogs to see how many folks are noticing. Perhaps the press will eventually catch on? Don't hold your breath.
