I'd prefer you found something like the Times starting a PAC. Saying that if he's right an online paper consisting of two reporters isn't a credible news source... doesn't really help your point. The fact that they worked for the Stranger at the time? Also not helpful.

Josh Feit? Isn't that the guy, journalist or not, whom State Sen. Michael Baumgartner told to go fuck himself?

Do they serve wine at the press events?

(I'm sorry. Someone had to do it.)

Is their PAC still [technically] active?

Was their PAC (which later showed up as a regret) directed against Rob McKenna?

(Yes, the McKenna campaign's refusal to allow you into their events is pathetic, but I'm not sure that this line of defense is helpful.)

Frank Blethen has funded anti-estate tax lobbying (as well as websites and advertising) for years, and the Times' editorial page reflects his bias. No member of their editorial board should be allowed at McKenna press conferences.

2004. That's when all of them were at The Stranger.

So if you can't have any, they can't have any either?

I will never tire of the back and forth between Slog and PubliCola.

@11 I will. And have.

Mommy, it's NOT FAIR! Suzy's doing the EXACT SAME THING! She shouldn't get any dessert either!

Seriously, can't you understand that you don't get to have things both ways? You're a polemicist, which, whatever, go with God, but stop pretending to be something else. Stop being bad for America. Please.

You dare speak ECB's name? YOU FILTY HALFBLOOD!

McKenna's just groping for any horseshit excuse to justify excluding you from his press events, Goldy.This PAC fluff gives him one that looks sorta legit to the kind of swiss cheese-brained stumps who like to pretend that THEY know how to participate in political conversations, too. And obviously your trolls love it. Whatever. Bottom line: McKenna is and always was just another slimy right-wing jackass who only likes rich people and he can't defend himself against you and The Stranger in a fair fight so he pulls sissy moves like this. He's a coward. A big stupid dumb mean self-absorbed coward. Don't lose sight of that because you're, I dunno, exasperated, under-caffienated or basically just too damn sober to put up with McKenna's high school election-style BS.

I find the updates on McK's latest ongoing petulant drama amusing and all but it seems like you'd be better served by lawyering up.
