Article: "SURPRISE! NEWSWEEK Reporter Joins Obama Administration"

" The revolving door between the media and Team Obama continues to rotate. Some journalists on the campaign trail were infatuated with Obama, and that’s certainly true of the Newsweek reporter who covered Obama in-depth (with the promise that nothing he learned would be revealed until after the election). Philip Klein on The American Spectator’s blog reported: " (link is Newsbusters' and is left intact.)

That, however, should be very very telling. Wasn't it just recently that a Time reporter left to join the Obama "team?" And after all those flattering pictures of the Obama's on Time's cover. Makes you wonder.

And now a "reporter" from the drooling media sycophants joins Obama's team.

Do I really need to ask the obvious? Just suppose for an instant that it were Mr McCain in the White House and that the "reporters" were jumping ship to work in his administration. You know full well that the liberals - both those in and not - in Congress would be screaming. The Daily Kos folks would probably all have heart attacks. The Huffington Post folks would be up in arms as well. And, they should be.

But here we have those "reporters" leaving to join "team Obama." Where is their outrage now?

Franky, and here's that full disclosure thing again, I'd be up in arms if "reporters" left to join the hypothetical McCain team. They're supposed to be reporters, not drooling sycophants. I guess I'm the only one that realizes that, however. The GOP can't bring themselves to mention it. The lefties can't bring themselves to realize that it might just possibly be a bad idea. This really reminds me of that line in Aliens:

"What, did IQs drop sharply while I was away?"
