Wednesday Reading, Blago Week

Posted by: Laer at 05:17 pm

I’

ve been chain-meeting today, so this is my first chance to get over to the Watcher of Weasels and check out his week’s goodies. As any of you WoW fans know, the Watcher now puts some mighty good posts up on the site, like this:

On Saturday morning, the list of subpoenas served by the U.S. Attorney’s office in the Governor Rod Blagojevich case was made public. The list included one major surprise for the new administration.

A veritable “who’s who” of Obama staffers, surrogates and affiliates were among those whose communications with Blago were served with subpoenas. Put simply, within one week of President Barack Obama’s administration taking office, it is already under significant legal scrutiny that will — at a minimum — take precious time away from dealing with the country’s monumental economic and foreign policy challenges.

And, once again, the mainstream media is AWOL, unwilling to report on this very newsworthy story.

To read what follows that compelling intro, you’ll have to go to the site, where you can also find this week’s entries into the Watcher’s weekly Fair of Fairly Renaissance Thinking.  But I’m blood-oathed-bound to post them here as well, but Internet Explorer isn’t letting me copy them for some reason … probably the same reason why I use Mozilla … so please check out the entries at WoW.

And while you’re there, check out the Watcher of Weasels Facebook page

Council members will vote Thursday evening and you’ll see the results here Friday morning.

With Obama winning the presidency by seven percent, we can't blame the media. Their laudatory coverage and refusal to extensively probe into Obama's background and [lack of] experience was at best responsible for five percent of his vote, the pundits tell us. Here is a compilation of over 100 significant instances of pro-Obama/anti-McCain bias during the 2008 campaign.
