Ever notice how commentators have that label banged out and riveted into the discussion of Democratic Party politics? Ever notice how commentators refer to Republican appeals to "its base?" Sounds like yet another RW frame routinely picked up by the media.

2. I am the anti-war left.
Well, not all of it, but I'm a part of it.

I have no problem with being described that way. I don't feel minimized or maligned.

3. CNN lately has competely gone into neocon mode
Joe Lieberman on Wolf Blitzer's show as the only Senator talking about the move to cut off funding? What's that all about? What happened to providing an impartial and balanced view of the news?

And in the show after Wolfie's, the hack (I don't recall his name - the distinguished-looking guy with the good hair) calling the move to investigate the US Attorney controversy as "political theater". They're no longer just quoting others accusing it of being political theater, they are now running with the mantra themselves.

I cannot believe that a network like CNN now represents the small minority of Americans who still believe the lies about Iraq and think the Bush Administration is clean and patriotic.

How CNN has fallen.
