The Centrist Cop-Out - NYTimes.comSeems to me that one of the most extreme voices has got it right. Folks in my neighborhood like to say the president is a socialist, but the evidence suggest he is pretty far right of center. Have to admit I was outraged, when i heard John Boehner argue "President Obama hates it. Harry Reid hates it. Nancy Pelosi hates it. Why would Republicans want to be on the side of President Obama, Harry Reid, and Nancy Pelosi [is] beyond me." Has he lost his mind? Has he forgotten that he is an American and that should be more important than political jihad? I think Krugman has it right in his piece. Media and politicians that are married to access and fund raising have really taken us down a rocky path.

So the water was not ruined by the evil drilling......

The limited coverage (WENY-TV News - Local News) of drilling related contamination claims that turn out to be wrong just baffles me. The truth and even-handed presentation of facts just doesn't seem to matter.

Personally, I would think that the local media might find high levels of naturally occurring barium in local water sources to be pretty big news. I would sure like to know that I am at risk and should test my water......

Clobert remains king of the absurd.....

This is too good to miss....

NYT "sources" exposed

Articles & Commentary I was a little surprised to read an official with the Dallas Fed was a critic of shale gas drilling. I never dreamed that the NYT was this far off base. Pretty disappointing information. There are plenty of issues natural gas (shale development) that merit serious analysis and conversation, not sure why the Times is wasting its time and sacrificing its credibility ginning up sensational stories without much merit....
