Where in the world has Howard Kurtz been the last two years?

Because he just got a clue that the MSM is in the tank for Obama:

Perhaps it was the announcement that NBC News is coming out with a DVD titled "Yes We Can: The Barack Obama Story." Or that ABC and USA Today are rushing out a book on the election. Or that HBO has snapped up a documentary on Obama's campaign.

Perhaps it was the Newsweek commemorative issue -- "Obama's American Dream" -- filled with so many iconic images and such stirring prose that it could have been campaign literature. Or the Time cover depicting Obama as FDR, complete with jaunty cigarette holder.

[...]

Are journalists fostering the notion that Obama is invincible, the leader of what the New York Times dubbed "Generation O"?

Each writer, each publication, seems to reach for more eye-popping superlatives. "OBAMAISM -- It's a Kind of Religion," says New York magazine. "Those of us too young to have known JFK's Camelot are going to have our own giddy Camelot II to enrapture and entertain us," Kurt Andersen writes. The New York Post has already christened it "BAM-A-LOT."

He naively thinks that they'll come to their senses when Obama begins to govern:

Obama's days of walking on water won't last indefinitely. His chroniclers will need a new story line. And sometime after Jan. 20, they will wade back into reality.

Um...don't count on it. The press had been in the tank for Clinton throughout his presidency and beyond and might have continued past his death if Obama hadn't challenged Hillary for the presidency. The press dumped Clinton for Obama and they've been crushing ever since. They'll be his loyal apologists, as they were for Clinton, throughout his presidency and beyond. They've got their dream of Camelot and they aren't going to let it go even if we're faced with an attack and he blows it (as the prophet Biden predicted). Even if the economy totally tanks and he blows it. Even if...well, you get the idea. In the eyes of the press he'll walk on water no matter what he does because they are faithful Obamanites and nothing will change that.
