Short of outright prosecution, intense WH pre-election arm-twisting works pretty well

surveillance = good... spying on everybody = good... bowing to white house pressure = good... watching your credibility fade away as the premier newspaper in the united states = priceless...
In a "mea culpa" appended to the end of his column on Sunday, the ombudsman for the New York Times now says that the paper was wrong to report on the Bush Administration's "once-secret banking-data surveillance program."

that horse has been out of the barn since june, byron, and trying to lure it back in just before the elections smacks strongly of toadyism... if this is something you honestly want us to believe, why does the timing make it smell like a skunk under the front porch...? and, never mind that when the nyt reported on it, it wasn't secret and hadn't been since shortly after 9/11, which is when i, a miserable no-account blogger, first read about it... you may kiss my nether regions, byron, and the same goes for your employer...
