How do they get the NY Times to print this stuff? Do the reporters have no shame? Look at this article:
Quieter Approach to Spreading Democracy Abroad. Not only does the article reveal the corruption of those advising Obama -- David Plouffe accepting money from anti-democratic forces -- it portrays the Obama sellout of fledgling democracies as a subtle, positive shift in policy. More disgraceful still is the opinionating posing as reporting as in describing Bush's "grand, even grandiose vision" and going on to "report" that the "shift has been met with relief in Washington and much of the world, which never grew comfortable with Mr. Bush’s missionary rhetoric, seeing it as alternately cynical or naïve." That the article has no facts to back this up -- or seems to think that no facts are needed to back it up -- shows the purely editorializing nature of the reporting.
