Tim Russert, Chris Matthews, Mike Barnicle, Maureen Dowd, Margaret Carlson, Ceci Connolly! I could go on, but my question is: Has anyone got anything good to say about any of them?

Is it all about their pre-conciliar cathecism? Pope John XXIII just wasn't Jesuitical enough for them, not Irish enough?

Anyone got any ideas as to why they turned out so badly?
