Kos & Hamsher's Cute Little Lapdog: Ned Lamont
Martin Peretz wrote an excellent editorial Monday noting that Connecticut's would-be Senator Ned Lamont is Karl Rove's dream Democrat:
shallow to the extreme, a one-trick pony candidate who displays all the
depth of a rainpuddle when it comes to the situations in places like

important fact about Ned Lamont: he's…
Conyers Hints at Impeachment in Report Citing Pantheon of Leftist Medi
As liberally biased and prone to sniffing out conservative and Republican wrongdoing as many of the larger media organizations are, there actually is a more insane wing of the left-wing media made up of nutjob bloggers and "news" web sites.
