Verily, the things of which democracy is made of: soporific WGN host Milt Rosenberg is UNDER ATTACK from angry angry Obama supporters, thus depriving Chicago of one of its best insomnia cures. You can hear the results here. I get no pleasure in saying the only person who comes out unscathed is guest Stanley Kurtz, who actually makes an attempt to discuss the only interesting thing about the Obama/Ayers connection–the mostly separate role they played in local public schools. Milt cuts him off to talk about the angry Obama supporters, but it was a nice try.
• LIE: “When Veteran Cook County Boss John Stroger faced a strong and credible challenge in the 2006 primary election from a reform-minded liberal Democrat, Obama said nothing…Obama’s silence had probably saved Cook County’s political kingpin.” [pp. 8, 14]
