the "liberal media' FINALLY noticing that people are not happy with Iraq

Hackett and Sheehan put the focus on Bush's Iraq failings

The combination of Paul Hackett's astounding showing in OH-02 and Cindy Sheehan's bravery have struck a chord with the MSM:

Judging from what's out there, it appears to be time to pile on the Administration over Iraq. A strikingly close outcome in a special congressional election in Ohio last week suggested that voters in a traditionally Republican stronghold are more receptive to criticism about President Bush's conduct of the war. Sixty-one percent of Americans disapprove of his handling of it, per Newsweek. Jessica Lynch tells Time magazine that she feels she was "used as a symbol." The mother of a US soldier killed in Iraq, an anti-war activist, is getting national media attention for her vigil in Crawford; she has already met with Administration officials but hopes to meet with Bush.

First, if it is a time to pile on, it's long, long overdue. I guess it took Hackett and Sheehan AND 61% of their fellow Americans to prove it.
