A Free Pass for Hysteria

It wasn't until the 14th paragraph of today's AP report on Howard Dean's and John Edwards' latest nonsense that it actually mentioned Howard Dean. And it's hard not to wonder whether this has something to do with what Dean said. While the AP quoted the RNC response to Dean's "diatribe," it also omitted most of the offending diatribe itself, by which I mean these comments:

"It wasn't enough for the president to try to wreck the public pension system that we had. It wasn't enough for him to try to turn over Social Security to the same people who brought us Enron, his good friends and political contributors.
"Pension plans ought not to be controlled by companies, they ought to be controlled by the people who those pensions belong to. That's the working people of America.
"You think people can work all day and then pick up their kids at child care or wherever and get home and still manage to sandwich in an eight-hour vote? Well Republicans, I guess can do that. Because a lot of them have never made an honest living in their lives."

Hysterical, indeed. My Lord, what would the report have said if Republicans said something like this? And they wonder why readership is down in the Washington Post?
