Interesting, apparently the New York Times is the ne plus ultra of American
ethics?  Thank you for clarifying that.

Now it seems I must take everything that the New York Times has to say as a
guidline for how to live my life, or at least that's what their editors
would have you think.

Apparently they have no issue with continually printing national secrets
about the CIA trying to find OBL, yet at the same time they have no problem
whining about how Bush isn't doing anything to find and get OBL?  Their
avarice for shock journalism regardless of the costs to society and their
cynical duplicity never ceases to amaze me.

Please do me the favor of not using quotations from the NYT as a basis of
authority on anything, except maybe Broadway plays.  Frankly in my opinion
their current editors should be in federal prison for treason, but that will
never happen in an election year and they know it.  FDR would have had them
shot and the paper shut down had they conducted themselves this way in
WWII..
