Jonah Goldberg has the goods on the media's jump to conclusions about the sniper(s). Instapundit also links to blogger Rand Simberg, with a similar but more pointed observation: that the media was dying to "paint Republicans as bigoted enablers of right-wing violence . . . two weeks before a mid-term election."

On a lighter note, Wednesday night I was flipping channels with the sound down, and saw on FOXNews the bizarre headline "BREAKING NEWS: A Tree Stump Was Removed And Loaded Into A Truck."

The scary thing is, I knew what they were talking about.
