I Just Had To Lift This Piece Found On Instapundit...

From The Riding Sun, a fellow New Yorker living in Tokyo...
Deep within its latest hatchet job on Bush and the Iraq war, titled "Bush at the Tipping Point", Newsweek hides the following paragraph:
On the ground, the shrewder analysts say, it's not entirely clear that U.S. policy has "failed." The TV news, not to mention Al-Jazeera, doesn't regularly summarize the stunning changes in Iraq, many of them morally and politically worthy. Saddam Hussein is gone and awaiting trial. Schools, hospitals and other institutions are operating in most parts of the country. Voters have adopted a constitution. And even many Sunnis are gathering in political parties that are maneuvering in advance of the Dec. 15 national elections. After the elections, the plan is that Coalition forces will use the growing number of capable Iraqi units to "clear, hold and build" a peaceful Iraq.
If that's what "the shrewder analysts say", shouldn't it be the main focus of the article?
So they use the less shrewed analysts for the rest of the article? It seem as if the MSM hasn;t been too worried about using their brains, telling facts or truth but more interested in promoting an agenda to futher their political aims. Why do we have to endure this poorly written trash?
