Williams, Gallagher, and Connecting the Dots
By now, we all know that Maggie Gallagher is the second conservabot "pundit" to be outed as a recipient of Bush Administration cash. Remember, the Bush Administration said two weeks ago that the Armstrong Williams case was an "isolated incident". Now, it's obvious that it wasn't. Gee, I wonder why isn't the mainstream media more interested in this part of the story? When a Democrat was in the White House, the US media were very eager to connect the dots, even when the dots only existed in OIC/RNC blast-faxes. Now, with a Republican ensconced therein, each dot is treated as if it has no connection to any other dot. The only explanation that fits all the evidence was given many decades ago, by Upton Sinclair: "It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on his not understanding it."
