My faith is renewed in journalism.

The New York Times Editorial today criticizes White House for effectively selling access. Using the same methods that Obama slammed the Republicans on...Even though they were not selling access to the White House.

This is not good news for the President....Now his feet will be held to the fire.

Methinks that the NY Times is becoming it's old self again....with "all the news that's fit to print"

Let's look forward to them holding the Republicans and Democrats accountable for what is "not" going on in this country....other than taking care of themselves and their favored friends.

Default Update....

This came out in the NY Times early this morning. And already the comment section (of the NY Times) is filled with comments using the ridiculous excuse that if it is OK for the Republicans it is OK for the White House.

Apparently Obama's cheerleaders are out of touch with reality or are just desparate.

We are talking about a sitting President in the White House.

Yes, it is equal and fair that the Democrat Party itself does this....But Obama is the President in the White House. It is for Executive Office functions.....not fund raising.

I would say the comparisions of Obama and Lincoln no longer hold water....The better comparision would be with Obama and Grant.

Oh....And I notice that the left leaning and progressive group usually so active on this forum is not defending this in any way...Could it be that this story shows the reall truth, and the progressive/left hopes to bury it by not commenting on it?...

....Or, did they get a sudden urge to go back to church today?
