Fox News' Carl Cameron (who authored that weird-ass story on Kerry being a metrosexual)?

Is the Downing Street Memo story finally pushing Milbank beyond the edge of sanity?

1. My letter to them...
(I am not proud of it, I was too angry to be cogent or civil :-()

=======================================================================
What you did in this hack job of a column was absolutely cynical, irresponsible, and unbelievable, even for the current state of the art of "reporting".

Rep. John Conyers and the other elected Democratic representatives were merely trying to do their jobs (I grant you this is considered quaint these days) as best they could in this dysfunctional congress (lest you forget: the congress is currently run with mean iron fists by Republicans).

Here is an unbelievably secretive and corrupt administration that has the deaths of 100s of thousands of people on its hands and you are out there describing what the Democrats are doing in asking questions of them as "playing house"? Just exactly where is your sense of proportion?

They, in fact, were doing something you all should have been doing. Instead, you sit here cackling that they are filling in for you, investigating this corrupt administration.

Grow a brain, some spine, stop patting yourself for achieving the stature to earn a fat pay check and go do something to actually deserve it now.

would be enough to drive anyone mad.

He should seriously consider moving to another paper- one that hasn't become a laughing stock-
