Hannity and O'Reilly conveniently ignore accusations that CIA misled Congress

SUMMARY: Though Bill O'Reilly and Sean Hannity and their guests criticized Nancy Pelosi for alleging that the CIA gave her false information, they have yet to note the report by several Democratic members of the House Intelligence Committee that CIA director Leon Panetta disclosed to them that the CIA withheld information from Congress for years during the Bush administration.

1. I turned it over a couple of times today (FUX) to see if they ...
would mention it. They were discussing what the new attire for the flight attendants would look like after the Delta merge (serious), and other innate prattle that made no sense. If you'll surf over there when there's a repuke scandal going on, or anything else that gets reported widely on the other networks that can be considered negative in any way, they'll be talking about stuff like, the latest diet fad or sarah palin's favorite color.

If it's really bad, they start slamming the stimulus plan hard, and then they bring out the really big gun, the "Obama's gonna raise your taxes" screed. That seems to capture the attention of the lemmings long enough til they can try to bury the other stories.

2. Oh, and as for hannity and o'reilly, they're waiting...
for their talking points to come directly from cheney. I'll bet roger ailes and sean hannity have scooter libby's number on speed dial. They're just keeping quiet today til they can all get their heads together to make sure they keep their lies straight for tomorrow's lineup.
