The Clintons
I'm no fan of them, but I do find the double standard shown by this Frank Rich column annoying. Basically, he is saying that if Hillary gets the nomination, every little bullshit financial deal of theirs will be thoroughly probed out the wazoo by the media-- looking for any hint of scandal.
Which is all fine on the level of the media acting as a watchdog.
I just wish the "MSM" showed the same investigative gusto in going after Bush/Cheney financial deals-- and 9/11 for that matter.
But of course, everyone should realize by now the media HAS an agenda, and carries water for the PTB.
UPDATE: FWIW, I find it hard to get so upset about Bill's recent behavior regarding Obama and the SC primary (summarized nicely here). I find Bill's blowhard refutation of 9/11 being an inside job probably the most annoying thing he's done recently.

Excellent point, Mr. Spooked, but the Clintoons are just as dangerous to the health (physical and financial) of living human beings everywhere as anyone on the other side.
Should Bill Clinton be applauded for having left a huge surplus in the budget whenever he walked out of the Big House, or should he be damned for not putting that money to good use to help solve some of the many problems that afflict those of us who don't live in a mansion high up on the shining hill?
