but I will have to be on DU... at this point I am just bringing to your attention the pattern that is emerging... this conversation has moved from absolute elite media (not in the way Republicans or some people here mean it... those are meant at the governing and economic elites), down to the next two rungs... that be the WAPO\NYT, that is the beltway... and down to the next run... now NPR... it will continue to make it's way down into tertiary papers soon.

Suffice it to say at this point this matter cannot be discussed here, in any serious manner... so I will leave it at that.

If and when the shooting starts. (Well at that point that analysis will NOT be here, but at other places)

The only thing that seems to matter, well that is the beauty con... err primaries and dog byte man stories... so be it.
