Sir,

It is refreshing to once again assure oneself that liberal hypocrisy is the rule, rather than the exception, and to see that politics remain predictable. Jere Nash confirmed his place in the leftist media structure in his Friday blog about the gay teenager from Wesson defying her local school board, stating that “a good protest never hurts, and oftentimes is a good thing.” It seems that I recall Mr. Nash’s negative, dismissive portrayals of the Tea Party and 912 March protestors as “crazies” not representative of a legitimate political movement in past editions. So, protest is only “good” in Mr. Nash’s world when it is the right, or shall I say, left kind of protest?

His behavior is analagous to the conspicious silence of the national media, save for Helen Thomas, on the issue of the Obama administration’s targeting of Fox News. The normally vocal Jacob Weisberg of Slate magazine, who went beserk when the Bush administration criticized an article written for Newsweek in 2005, later proven false,about a Koran being flushed down a toilet at Guantanamo, has failed to protest this open assault on the free press. Seems like Germany in the 1920′s, doesn’t it?
