K My A, Part II

First, it is widely reported that Patrick Kennedy is battling addiction to pain killers and this would have something to do with his accident at the Capitol. So naturally, for the mainstream media, this development makes the story bigger than the landing on the moon.

Hey, isn't there a big-time right-wing gas bag with the same problem (no, not this problem) - except that he pleaded guilty to a crime related to his problem so why isn't this an even bigger story than one involving Ted Kennedy's kid?

Second, Laura Rozen reports over at her blog "War and Piece" that there is much, much more to Goss' resignation than most of media is willing to discuss, here and here.

The Mainstream Media Can Kiss My Ass

Which is the bigger story?

A) At least six current and former members of the US Congress are tied up in a bribery scandal involving tons of cash, hookers, and the Watergate Hotel of all places, or

B) A single-car fender-bender involving a lone Congressman having a bad reaction to sleep medication?

If you go to CNN.com, MSNBC.com, or FAUX News, you'd get the idea that it's B. And you'd also get played for a complete and total fool. I can't imagine what these douchebags are saying on their cable networks.

It just goes on and on, day after day. The media just can't accept that MOST OF THE COUNTRY believes that this administration and the foppish clowns who report on it for the big media are completely untrustworthy and have sold us all out for money and power.

PS - And not a peep from any of the three regarding the fact that Porter Goss is neck-deep in the scandal described in choice A and perhaps this is why he's stepping down. Read their write-ups of his resignation and try to believe they completely ignored this little piece of dynamite.

PPS - Jesus Christ it took Bob Barr of all people to invoke the name of Duke Cunningham. Un-EFFING-believable.

UPDATE: Jennifer Loven's AP article on Goss has no mention of Goss' connection to the Cunningham Scandal. Now, google her name and see how much the right-wing has beaten up on her in the moronosphere. A little 'working-the-refs' strategy pays off. -2:44PM
