DEZINFORMATSIA

This week's "Media Misleadia" Award: "The immediate provocation is the GOP's so-called 'nuclear option,' a scheme by Republican leaders in the Senate to end the 200-year tradition of allowing the minority party to filibuster judicial nominations. Democrats regard the proposed rule change as the equivalent of a constitutional coup in the Senate." --Eleanor Clift, in a blatant lie -- filibusters of judicial nominees are unconstitutional

Using limited candle power: "As the debate over Social Security heats up, the estimated seven million or so illegal immigrant workers in the United States are now providing the system with a subsidy of as much as $7 billion a year. ... It is impossible to know exactly how many illegal immigrant workers pay taxes. But according to specialists, most of them do. Since 1986, when the Immigration Reform and Control Act set penalties for employers who knowingly hire illegal immigrants, most such workers have been forced to buy fake ID's to get a job." --Eduardo Porter of The New York Times**Not only should we be thankful for illegals, says the Times, we should feel sorry that they're "forced" to buy fake ID's!

And sometimes they get it right: "When she announced his nomination as ambassador to the United Nations, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice argued that John R. Bolton would be effective because, like former ambassadors Daniel Patrick Moynihan and Jeane J. Kirkpatrick, he was one of 'the strongest voices' in defense of American interests. There is something to that: The United States sometimes needs to stand up to rogue political appointees or gangs of autocrats at the United Nations, and the reforms the institution badly needs are unlikely to go forward without some unceremonious pushing from the U.S. ambassador." --Washington Post editorial endorsing John Bolton for U.S. Ambassador to the UN
