OT: But I just have to post this
POLITICO: We here have always been leary of POLITICO. I can remember them being at a Take Back America Conference in 2006 or 2007 taking polls, those of us here who attended did not take the poll, we did not trust them and now I don't think the WH does either. :rofl:

7 narratives politico is fighting in their efforts to get an interview with the President

1. They are more interested in readers than accuracy

2. Its okay to be wrong every once in a while, if your are the first to break the news

3. More interested in gossip than news

4. A spouter of the worst sort of insider conventional wisdom

5. Their analysis about obama has been wrong more than any one

6. http://www.politico.com/click/">Click ... period

7. More obsessed with personality than policy

1. I like it. LOL!
Actually, these Republican light media sources have been sprouting up all over the place recently. I call them light because they are actually RW publications trying to pretend they are legitimate unbiased news sources. I would add the Wall Street Journal and US News and World Reports in with Politico. Both of these publications have become irrelevant because they have shown themselves to be biased.
