Washington Post carries DNC’s water

In today’s Washington Post, they report that the Democrats are furiously digging up dirt on Republican congressional candidates.

In recent weeks, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has circulated information to local reporters about Republican candidates in close races.

The Washington Post acts a little outraged that Democrats would do such an underhanded thing…and then they publish the dirt on Republicans. Now, they have every right. and they have a civic responsibility to do so. However wouldn’t a fair news organization of the stature of the Washington Post also publish some of the indiscretions of Democrats to balance the story?

For example, the could mention Charlie Rangel and his tax problems. Or maybe William Jefferson and how it took years to remove him from his committee position when the FBI busted him for taking a bribe and finding a stack of cash in freezer? Or maybe Harry Reid’s real estate scams? Nancy Pelosi and her tuna company connections?

But I really don’t expect the Post to do research that’s related to the story.
