Are these guys idiots? I mean, I have read a Wall Street Journal before, I know they are all on the President's team but give me a break. Today on WSJ.com Gerald Seib and Neil King assert that NOW the President is losing popularity abroad. Um.... Now? How about 5 years ago? I would be willing to bet that the President's official popularity numbers abroad changed by a total of 0 after Scooter was indicted.
This is the shit we (the left) has been screaming since he first said "Axis of Evil". These two dorks site our troubles in the U.N. and then turn to Scooter... um... Bolton perhaps?
Has the Wall Street Journal entered into that space Fox News worked out for itself - that space in journalism where you pretend to be trustworthy but no-one *really* takes you seriously?
Its not entirely out of the question that the right is now going to try to pin as many problems as possible to Scooter in order to protect Bush and whoever the Republican presidential nominee might be in 2008.
