Three pages, Gary - did I miss even one word about how Obama or his supporters are responsible for the reprehensible way Hillary Clinton has been treated by the beltway pundits and the tabloid press?
I've heard for almost a solid week how "both sides" want to or need to ratchet down the rhetoric. But I pay pretty close attention and I haven't heard one word from Obama or one of his spokespeople about race or gender, while HRC continues to run out a parade of proxies saying the most embarrassing things I think I've ever heard from a Democratic campaign.
And when she's called on this bullshit, what happens? That's playing the gender card.
I expect this kind of lazy stuff pass for reporting in the major papers. (Do you have one demonstrable fact on the third page?) I don't expect to see it on Salon.
