“This administration is populated by people who’ve spent their careers bashing government. They’re not just small-government conservatives—they’re Grover Norquist, strangle-it-in-the-bathtub conservatives. It’s a cognitive disconnect for them to be able to do something well in an arena that they have so derided and reviled all these years.”

Even "The Swan" is more important then the President

As some people know by now (but no one at dinner last night did), the President speaks Monday night to convince us that all that's going on in Iraqi will eventually turn out to be good for America.
"The president looks forward on Monday evening to discussing with the American people and with a global audience a clear strategy on how we need to move forward," Duffy said.

Well, Fear Factor and Swan fans can breath a sigh of relief, as the four major networks give this one a pass. I guess the real suprise in all of this from a conservative viewpoint is that even Fox said no to the thing, leaving it up instead to their affiliates. I'm not sure this will silence the "liberal media bias" folk, though. I guess we'll have to see.

For those interested in hearing the speech, tentivately entitled "Iraqi is not more important than sweeps week," MSNBC, FOXNews, and I'm sure CNN will be showing it in its entirety.
