New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson, tapped in December by President-elect Barack Obama to serve as secretary of Commerce, has withdrawn his name for the position, citing a pending investigation into a company that has done business with his state.Drew M. at AOSHQ notices that the word "Democrat" appears nowhere in the MSNBC report.

UPDATE III: Under the bus goes another erstwhile friend of Obama.
But why would they want to add the word "Democrat" to the report?...OH I get it so the words "Democrat, Obama and impropriety" don't show in the next news report! Now I get it!
ReplyDeleteNow if it had been a Republican, I'm ROFLMAO!
What's even better is, remember when it was "Disgraced Republican Congressmen Mark Foley" and "Longtime GOP Senator Ted Stevens"?
ReplyDeleteThe media were all giddy about reminding the folks that these guys were Democrats.
Meanwhile, Kwame Kilpatrick, William Jefferson, Blagojevich, and now Bill Richardson- playing "name that party", we'll always lose.
