The Newsweek "Get Real Edition" of Conventional Wisdom
"W" is for Wanker


Bush Lowest poll numbers of any second-term president since Nixon. Use vacation to come up with a crowd pleaser.

Congress Only 19 percent of country thinks you have right priorities. Tackle health care and jobs instead of enriching the rich.

Frist After Schiavo autopsy proves she was vegetative, denies he made TV diagnosis. Transcript shows otherwise.


Jeb Bush Florida governor now wants prosecutors to reopen case to see if Michael left Terri to die in 1990. Give it a rest.

3. Wow! NEWSWEEK?
I guess they're still smarting from being taken to the woodshed over telling the truth.

Let's hope this is the beginning of a rebellious press. It's way overdue.

6. Okay, what's the punch line?
An up arrow for "Republicans" in general because they're controlling the media discourse even if it is all negatively?

9. That was Walter Jones of North Carolina
Mark Twain I think it was said something along the lines that every person is a damn fool for five minutes a day; the trick is in not exceeding your allotment. Jones said something dumb, but unlike so many of his Republican compatriots, has tried to ameliorate his prior dumbness.
