Spinning. Too. Fast. Can't. Keep. Up.

Media Matters - AP reports Lieberman's attack on Lamont over British terror plot, omits Lieberman's description of such attacks as “unacceptable and un-American”:
In an August 10 article about Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman's attacks on Connecticut Democratic Senate nominee Ned Lamont, the Associated Press quoted Lieberman's use of the recently foiled terrorist plot in Britain to bash Lamont, but the article omitted Lieberman's statement, made at the same appearance, that using national security issues for political purposes is “just unacceptable and in my opinion un-American.”
Whaaat? Run that by again?

No! Wait! I take it back! Not that, please not that!

Media Matters - Cal Thomas: Lamont's victory “completes the capture of the Democratic Party by its Taliban wing”:
Taliban Democrats have effectively issued a political “fatwah” that warns all Democrats not to deviate from their narrow line, or else face the end of their careers through a political jihad. Perhaps the few remaining rational Democrats should put on their burkas now and submit to the will of the party mullahs.
Holy centripetal force, Batman! We're doomed!
