how many of the non existent Obama supporters/Bush bashers read the NY Times....I realize it is not the Daily Kos, the following editorial may bring some comment...

"For months now, Jeb Bush has been listening as President Obama blasts his older brother’s administration for the battered economy, budget deficits and even the lax oversight of oil wells. “It’s kind of like a kid coming to school saying, ‘The dog ate my homework,’ ” Mr. Bush, this state’s former governor, said over lunch last week at the Biltmore Hotel. “It’s childish. This is what children do until they mature. They don’t accept responsibility.” In fact, instead of constantly bashing the 43rd president, Mr. Bush offered, perhaps Mr. Obama could learn something from him, especially when it comes to ignoring the Washington chatter. “This would break his heart, to get advice that applies some of the lessons of leadership my brother learned, because he apparently likes to act like he’s still campaigning, and he likes to blame George’s administration for everything,” Mr. Bush said, dangling a ketchup-soaked French fry. “But he really seems like he’s getting caught up in what people are writing about him”

I don't know if I've ever read a column by Matt Bai before, but that was a very fair and interesting take on the former President's brother, both whom, I have to admit, I admire.
I have to give the NY Times kudos for presenting this pretty fair portrait.

I read the Times from cover to cover each day. Yeah, they are a bit left but I know that going in but they DO GIVE YOU FACTS. Sometimes they omit but that is ok....if the Times was my only source it may be bad, but it is not.

I dont think the WSJ is a real threat to them as they want to be...at least in my opinion !

It was an interesting article I thought !
