   Let me see, should I feel sorry for fawning “journalists” who lost all sense of objectivity years ago because they waste their days looking for a photo op? Ah no. No more than I would feel sorry for Hamas, draft dodgers, Jane Fonda, Code Pink or Cyntia McKinney if they were hit by a bus.

   I’m glad to see they put work in quotes.

   People who “work” in the mainstream media haven’t actually done a day’s work in decades.

   President-elect Barack Obama obviously chafes under the constant gaze of the “protective pool,” the gaggle of media representatives allowed to follow his every move almost everywhere just in case, well, you can guess.

   Guess? You want me to guess? Okay, just in case he puts foil on his head and starts battling invisible spiders?

    As Bill O’Reilly pointed out on his show last night, the Secret Service would not allow a cameraman to get close enough without PeBO’s permission. It’s too dangerous!

    Wow. Thanks for that. Funniest thing I’ve read all day. Actual educated journalists vs. dudes in their mom’s basement with pictures of JEEEEESUS and ‘MERICA ($%^# YEAH!) on their walls posting on a nutjob website. You don’t get it that you’re the show – you’re the entertainment for the smart people. Like the monkey cage at the zoo.
