I've been listening to the news on the radio a lot since I've been stuck in traffic this holiday weekend. Since Air America Radio is repeating stuff for the third or fourth time, I've been listening to the "all news all the time" stations for the reason I'm stuck in traffic.
They've been talking about how Alberto Gonzales would be a bad choice because, get this, "Conservatives" think he's too moderate! In a 'Man Bites Dog' type story, the MSM is repeating the canard that Gonzales is somehow a moderate because conservative groups say so.
