No doubt the Times is still stressing on whether to run that whole Acorn/Obama tie article they witheld prior to the election.

Obama is not punishing Walpin’s freedom of speech or supressing a story on Obama’s continued corruption, merely extending that right of gettting paid to others who need some cash, yah, share the wealth.

Which law is this, Ed? I’ve seen some mention of this in a bill that Senator McCaskill wrote, and then-Senator Obama even co-sponsored, but it has yet to become law. The Monster on June 18, 2009 at 11:47 AM

…puts this in the category of White House spin, and the Times as a mouthpiece for Barack Obama.

Ed, are you saying you ever doubted the NYT was a mouthpiece for BHO or are you touting this as evidence of what you already knew?

The Left calls female opponents “sluts,” and elderly opponents “senile.” And they call people who work for the New York Times, “journalists.”

Walpin, who has been interviewed on numerous radio and television shows, shows no signs of any type of mental impairment, as the Obama smear meisters have claimed. Blake on June 18, 2009 at 11:53 AM

The NYT cannot rush to judgment. Only the Obama Administration's psychiatrists can determine if IGs are mentally fit. If Obama declares that Walpin has dementia, then he has a "duty to die" to prevent excessive ObamaCare costs.

Minute, by minute, day by day as the approval numbers continue to slide I expect to see even more desparate measures undertaken by the celebrity in the Whitehouse. How truly moronic can this administration be. I would also expect him to run afoul of even more of those pesky rules and regulations as well.

For the most part the bear is still asleep. God help BHO once it finally wakes.

I wrote the author a respectful email asking why there was no mention of President Obama’s co-sponsor of a bill that sets guidelines for this procedure. I’m sure he’s right on it.

I like the emotional graphic in the NYT article. I thought “Gee, this old crusty guy is taking money from these hard working kids” was the angle they were going after.

The days of printing Nast’s cartoons and attacking the corruption of the Tammany Hall political machine are long gone of course.

If Boss Tweed were alive nowadays, he’d be an ardent Obama supporter, would be getting tons of Federal moneys for projects around NYC (and for himself and his buddies), perhaps he’d be an ACORN member and would be quite the hero in the NYT.
