Media Matters says these are the worst “unhinged and outrageous media moments” of Obama’s first 100 days. Well, their mileage evidently varies. I think this sort of thing is a good deal worse. Of course, our “worst moments” are generated by pundits, commentators, and entertainers. Theirs are generated by allegedly unbiased reporters.

I’m seeing a lot of this for the first time – I don’t even have cable TV, though if I’m in the car I’ll sometimes catch Beck or Rush on the radio. But none of it bothered me. So… should conservatives be hanging our heads in shame over any of these? Anybody you’d like to throw under the bus? Or does it make you want to tune in?

Lagniappe: In a new, bipartisan move, the DNC has started producing Republican campaign spots guaranteed to fire up the base. Thoughtful of them. In any event, it makes me want to vote GOP! And the Party of No? I’m way okay with that. For conservatives, it’s not exactly a mark of shame to have voted against this stuff. More, please! In fact, I just might throw a few bucks John Boehner’s way because of this ad. It would be nice if the GOP did a better job articulating WHY it was important to vote against this stuff. But just saying no was a good start.
