The media are doing what they know best: changing the subject. They are desperate that their boy in the White House is circling the drain. They need to change the subject to something--anything--else. Pelosi is a convenient target. If she had stayed home this week, they would have found something else.
With all the blogs now defending Pelosi, the corporate media have acheived their objective. Even though Joe Kline is deserting the ship like the rat he is, the media and much of the blogosphere has stopped talking about the Bush disaster and is instead talking about something else.
That's the whole point.
