More media idiocy

Year after year, the Liberal loons in the MSM crab about what Republicans do, despise anything that anyone tries to do in the world, except their beloved Leftwing activists. They ignore every act of violence against Israel, write fawning stories about Fidel Castro and Yassir Arafat. They decry a war in Iraq that topped Saddam Hussein and his two nutcase sons. But, boy, let someone touch them and they are "angry and humiliated" when they are forcefully shown the door as Adrea Mitchell was in a Sudan new conference.

Part of a press pack following Condolezza Rice, the idiot Mitchell thought she could ask insulting questions of the Sudanese president, completely forgetting that uncomfortable reality that while she is accorded extradordinary freedom in the U.S., she's just another hack anywhere else in the world.

It's yet another intrusion on American foreign policy by our own very foreign MSM. Condolezza Rice was there to look for a diplomatic solution. Had it been Colin Powell with whom Mitchell agreed, the NBC reporter would have gladly followed the guidelines that said they were allowed in but not to ask questions. Apparently, the attitude emboldened her. The fact that she probably destroyed any opportunity to find a peaceful solution just at a time when the U.S. is beginning to exert more pressure on Sudan, is immaterial. When the story involves a reporter, the report is the story.
