Somewhere up there Breitbart is smiling.....

Reading this morning's Houston Chronicle, the AP on the death of Mr Breitbart.
Andrew Breitbart used the Internet relentlessly to ignite political scandal and expose what he saw as media bias, even if he sometimes had to edit the facts to do it...

The Associated Press is complaining about someone editing the facts. This is the same AP that wrote in news article, not an opinion piece the following:
President Barack Obama is reaping political benefits from the country’s brighter economic mood. A new poll shows that Republicans and Democrats alike are increasingly saying the nation is heading in the right direction and most independents now approve the way he’s addressing the nation’s post-recession period
OK. Does anyone out there think the economy is improved since January 2009? Or this editing the facts?

Here is another one.
WASHINGTON - (AP) -- Most Americans don't share Rick Santorum's absolutist take on abortion. He's out of step on women in combat. He questions the values of the two-thirds of mothers who work. He's even troubled by something as commonplace as birth control -- for married couples. Even among a Republican presidential field eager to please religious conservatives, Santorum's ideas stand out...
Again, this is the start of a news article, not an opinion piece.

I read on one of the articles about him in the last 24 hours he would start many days with reading Internet post criticizing him. Said if he was getting them to react he must be doing something right.

RIP Andrew. Even in death you will do something AP refused to do. Actually vet B Hussein Obama and his qualifications for the highest office in the land.
