Media Still Laughingly in the Tank for Obama
Where are all the tough comments and slanted questions begging the question against a self serving report like the one issued by the Obama campaign clearing itself of any wrongdoing in regards to bribes for Senate seats? What would the reaction be if Republicans published a similar report?
National Review said it before I did, but come on, tell me that this thought didn’t enter your mind the moment you heard it:

Today’s AP story about Obama’s internal review of his staff’s contacts with Blagojevich is headlined as follows:
“Biden: Report to Clear Obama Aides in Gov. Probe.”
Well that settles it. Why didn’t the Bush administration commission these kinds of reports? I recognize Biden’s got way more credibility and gravitas than Cheney, but c’mon.
Obviously massive sarcasm there, but sarcasm with a point. HERE is the report for all that it is worth. It is basically a five page PDF that says “yup we are innocent”.
Hotair.com has a more interesting analysis questioning the accuracy of this report HERE. It is well worth the read.
UPDATE: Looks like Politico.com is not buying Obama’s report – details HERE and HERE.
