Damage Control!
by AlexinCT

It looks like the NYT has decided they better take Murtha down - sort of make him the scapegoat and lay all the blame for this massive pay-for-play defense scandal at his feet - to help protect many other democrats involved in this scandal from the same fate. In fact, this article, throws Murtha under the bus, even while in passing pointing out that there are many more democrats involved, but never points out that there is an entire “culture of corruption” thing at work here. Must be because the NYT progressives are realizing that the country is seeing the democrats for what they are, realizing they were had, and are very likely to turn on them hard in 2010, especially if they find out that the democrats are involved in scandals that make those they hyped about the other side look like chump change. This article reeks of damage control to me. Make Murtha the fall guy, protect the many other democrats involved, and hopefully prevent the American people from taking the lot of them down in the next election cycle. Oh that liberal media…
