What passes for journalistic standards these days
From James Politi writing at the
UK Financial Times:
Democrats grow confident of House win
Democrats say they are optimistic that they can regain control of the House of Representatives in the November election, an outcome that would mark a sharp reversal from the thumping defeat dealt to the party in 2010.
�We�ve gone from a gale force wind against us to a sustained breeze at our backs,� said Steve Israel, the chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, on Tuesday.
Hey James, while you were giving Mr. Israel his loving tongue-bath, did you happen to think about checking the political winds hmmmm? Check a few polls? Fact check anything?
Or did you just regurgitate Mr. Israel's press release verbatim like the good little lap-dog that you are.
The comments are a fun read.
