NYT Rips "Iraq the Model" For... Wanting America To Succeed in Iraq

Don't take a contrary position to the New York Times, boys. They get a little snippy.

The Times article speculates, without evidence, that the ItM bloggers are CIA plants.

Let's say, hypothetically, that's true.

Didn't the Times kinda-sorta scold the Bush Administration for outing a (so-called) "undercover CIA agent" working in dangerous and mysterious Arlington, Virginia?

Shouldn't they have approximately the same protectiveness for supposed CIA agents operating in Baghdad?

Ace. On point. Unfortunately I (along with the rest of America) have a memory span like that of a goldfish (approximately 7 seconds), so alas, I'd forgotten that the NYT broke the Plame story.

*hangs head low in shame*

In case we'd forgotten which side the NYT is on... It ain't the good guys'.

Boxer knew damn well that they're not agents. If she had any real evidence, she would have provided it like a giant smoking gun. She wouldn't have been able to contain the ability to question the CIA, Pentagon, White House, etc.
Just when I think I can't be more disillusioned by the Times, they print something like this.

Trying to make sense of a democrat is analogous to a dog chasing it's tail; the twain shall never meet.

It’s unbelievable the credence Boxer gives “Gandhi.” He's a well-known and obnoxious troll, whom she makes out to be incarnation of his namesake.

I hope bloggers can cast enough light on this that ITM is allowed to reply in the NYT. It’s only fair.

It blows my mind that there are Americans who actually want democracy to fail in Iraq -- but the people at the Times clearly do. Every time I think that I will never be shocked again, the Times proves me wrong. Today they've got a piece chastizing the Coptic Christians of Jersey City for not liking it when Muslims crashed the funeral of a family they almost certainly killed.

Somebody should write a book about the greatest drinking stories of O'Toole, Burton, Harris, and Caine. One of my faves was Richard Harris went on a six week bender in the South of France without telling wifey. Upon return, she's screaming, and he simply replied "why didn't you pay the ransom"?
