Have they no shame?

The New York Hearsay today has about the most hypcritical editorial I've seen in a long time. Called "The Fine Art of Declassification" it faults Bush for declassifying selected information to support his positions, which begs the question of what he was responding to. The Hearsay itself decided that it had the right to effectively declassify those parts of a classified document furnished by the source of leaks to its reporter, creating a false impression that the NIE supports giving up in Iraq. When Bush declassified other parts of the NIE to correct that impression, the editorial board of the Hearsay cries foul. This is the kind of silliness we've come to expect from Harry Reid. The Hearsay has now thrown off any pretensions of objectivity. It's now the house organ of the Democratic Party, petty, hypocritical and lawless.
