Columnists who perceive that their mission is to produce a constant stream of disapproval of the status quo will have an abundance of available topics in the next few weeks, no matter what happens.
Have any of the nation's elite political pundits done a critical evaluation of this year's football season from the point of view that it might be a part of a coordinated Republican union busting agenda?
Will any of the partisan progressive pundits ask if the air strikes against Libya are being conducted by the Condor Legion?
Will any Democratic Party toady propagandist say when the "not days or weeks" air campaign against Libya becomes an event of longer duration than the Battle of Britain?
Is news in America skewed? How many updates have you seen or heard about the meltdowns in Japan?
Portrayals of the Palin vs. Bachman rivalry as a cat fight between harpies may have great entertainment value, but it also carries the subliminal message that the Republican Party has women (plural) who are qualified to seek the nomination and that, for the men in the liberal media, means it is business as usual to ridicule the women. The implication is that the Republicans are more prone to taking women seriously and they expect women voters to vote accordingly.
Is having a negotiator in the budget talks who has been compromised, better than having no negotiator at all? To some cynical columnists President Obama's chances of using negotiations to avoid an impending disaster, based on his past negotiating track record, are nil and none.
