Rachel Maddow: Newsperson? No, partisan hack

Obama, in a four-minute video message, tried to calm liberals frustrated by what they consider slow progress on their favorite causes, urging Democratic bloggers and activists to be patient and work with him.

. . . Be patient, Obama urged them. His message included a brief recitation of his accomplishments by liberal TV commentator Rachel Maddow, who noted that Congress has passed landmark health care and financial regulation legislation.

Does a "newsperson" address a gathering of partisan "Democratic bloggers and activists" regarding the "accomplishments" of any politician? No, but a partisan hack does.

It's funny how the people who complain about the hyper partisanship on Fox News celebrate its mirror image on MSBNC.

Actually, I watch CNN - - MSNBC and Fox are the two opposite sides of the same hyper partisan coin. I'd rather hear NEWS on the news.
