Libby found guilty in CIA leak trial

Dallas Blog's report on the Scooter Libby conviction for obstruction of justice and perjury generated only a single comment on the day of conviction. That was from "Blue Pages" who pointed out the fact that not a single Texas Republican had any comment.

Good observation, Blue Pages. Also, more Dallas Blog commentors thought Hillary Clinton's accent was deserving of note than the fact that the chief of staff of the Vice President of the United States was found guilty of obstruction of justice and perjury. Tom Pauken, publisher of Dallas Blog and former chairman of the Republican Party of Texas, thought Hillary's accent was the only thing about her appearance in Selma last weekend worthy of note. He even spent time in a followup post defending his journalistic judgment (he found at least two mainstream media reports of it). But Mr Pauken is silent so far about Libby's conviction, the biggest news story of the day and likely to be a prominent part of any history of the Bush administration.

Draw your own conclusions about where to turn for thoughtful analysis of the important issues of the day. Hint: it's not Tom Pauken and his Dallas Blog.

P.S. Have fun with anagrams of Tom Pauken's name:
What he is: A MOTE PUNK
What he does: MAKE TON UP
What he drives his readers to do: MAN, TOKE UP
