What Bloggers Are Saying About The Washington Post “Temper” Piece

Seems that Washington Post 'writer' Michael Leahy has written a "hit piece" on John McCain.




“McCain ought to send a thank-you to Michael Leahy. There's nothing like a wave of agenda journalism attacks on the GOP

-Hugh Hewitt

John McCain and Sen. Charles Grassley to illustrate how some feel McCain's "volcanic temper" is "disqualifying" for the presidency … The issue particularly persists for media outlets that don't want the ongoing Democratic primary fight to hurt Democrats too much CLICK HERE to Read the Story.....
