Leftist canker blossoms

HA-HA ya ratbastards. I see your underpants.

Tom Bevan (Real Clear Politics) obliquely tackles Canker Blossom politics. Turning Against Nifong    is about a politician who is quite willing to sacrifice the freedom and reputations of innocent young men for the sake of political expediency.  When he won the Democrat primary a while back, it looked like Nifong had retained office as Durham County prosecutor.  Guess what?  His people are bailing on him in droves.  Rove Gives Paper the Vapors is a mind boggling example of ratbastard media who are quite willing to prosecute political enemies for the sake of political expediency. Here are the opening paragraphs from today's Pittsburgh Post-Gazette editorial. ''Sometimes it feels like there's no justice. That's a sentiment likely to be shared by many Americans in the wake of this week's announcement that Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald has decided not to charge top White House aide Karl Rove in his investigation of the Valerie Plame leak case. ''The feelings of frustrated justice are not just partisan sour grapes, although some of that certainly exists among Democrats who were prematurely convinced of Mr. Rove's legal complicity. The truth is that disappointment might be felt by any fair-minded person who remembers what exactly was at the heart of this case and who was involved. ''   Res Ipsa Loquitur While I'm on the subject of disappointed democrats, how can we fail to notice ''fallout from the recent Big Boom?'' Limbo slices and dices it quite nicely, here (audio).  And, even more here.
