ABC's 'The Note' Suggests Democrats Want US Troops Killed and Maimed
How else to interpret this:

"As is always the case with the out-of-power party, Democrats have to root root root for bad news. And no bad news source is better for the Democrats' election prospects than the bad news from Iraq."

Halperin et al have been at this game for a while. Eric Boehlert's new book, Lapdogs, has a compelling chapter devoted to DC's favorite Bush-propping tip sheet. Media Matters has more.

1. When Bad News is President, you don't have to "root"

4. Except I always hear Murtha, Kerry and Clark URGING Bush to do the
right thing and giving him the best advice they can, DESPITE being in the other party.

Why doesn't the media notice that some Democrats aren't GIVING UP and continue to hope Bush will do the right thing for the troops?
