Breaking news: Corndog speaks !

This article in the Sunday Dallas Morning News is an example of something that has become routine: One or more politicians appear on a Sunday morning TV news show to recite the current Democratic or Republican talking points, and the newspapers/wire services treat it as though it were a newsworthy event rather than a staged dog-and-pony show. Making matters worse, the rehearsed opinions are usually solicited from nimrods like John Cornyn whose positions are always completely predictable. I suppose it's just one more in a growing list of reasons why I'm letting my newspaper subscription expire.
