Batting third in the Bush League All Stars lineup
is Useful Idiots, a deck dutifully named after Joseph
Stalin's time-honored and spot-on description of the left-wing
media.
Here are a few sample cards from this deck.
Leading off this deck would be the Dynamic-Duo of the White House
press corps, the still-breathing
Helen Thomas, and her sidekick, the spunky Boy-Wonder,
Terry Moran. For a purely objective roundup of the days
headlines, we present ? live from New York! ?
Huey,
Dewey, and
Louie. And whatever you do, do not tell
Eric Alterman that the media has a liberal bias. Over at PBS,
Bill Moyers demonstrates one of liberalism's long-standing
traditions -- having one's cake and eating it, too. We would be
remiss in leaving the Moyers' kin without saying hello to
Little Bill. Cute little bugger, isn't he? Meanwhile at CBS,
Andy Rooney is finally talking sense, and dapper
Ed Bradley is fine-tuning next week's wardrobe. Elsewhere
within Useful Idiots,
Robert Scheer longs for the good-old-days,
Thomas Friedman makes a decision
- albeit the wrong one,
David Brock gets giddy,
James Carville analyzes election results, and
Peter Arnett remains on the fast-track to obscurity.
