Conason's "Big Lies"

I read Joe Conason's "Big Lies" on the way home from NY yesterday. I'd give it an A-. It was a good read. In parts it reminded me of Alterman's "What liberal Media", but less hysterical.

Conason makes excellent points about the hypocrisy of the Right, which is always so delicious. Like Bill Bennett being a compulsive gambler and Rush being a junkie. Those are the obvious ones, Joe points out some some of the less obvious and reminds us of much of the hypocrisy we've forgotten. If the Left had a Fox News Channel we could be reminded of the adultery of many of the GOPs most prominent members, their drunken sailor spending and Chicken Hawk military records. But we don't so we have to rely on Blogs and authors like Conason.
