Andrew C. McCarthy on Pulitzer Prize & War on National Review Online
Andrew McCarthy steps over a line that should not be stepped over according to some in this one. In his close, "these awards are not about who performed the best reporting or churned out the most skillful piece of writing. They are a reflection of the us-versus-them divide, and of who has best served the "us" faction."
We should all be troubled by this, even the Left as the msm twists and weaves our reality into something it never was.

"How did it come to pass that an opposition's measure of a president's foreign policy was all or nothing, success or "failure"? The answer is that the political absolutism now normal in Washington arrived at the moment--Nov. 7, 2000--that our politics subordinated even a war against terror to seizing the office of the presidency." - Daniel Henninger - WSJ 11/18/05
