When the truth becomes uncomfortable, it becomes a smear

The Anchoress is on a roll:

Now, the GOP is trying to shed some light on the clear and important connection between Barack Obama and the corrupt ACORN - whose activities are on the verge of discrediting the election in 11, or perhaps as many as 14 states - and even Thom notices that their effort is “seen mostly as ‘another right wing attempt to smear Obama.’” Because you know, when the truth is uncomfortable, it becomes a “smear.”

The choice of many in the press to champion Obama is beyond disgusting.  How they behaved during the Clinton era is a mere shadow compared to current efforts.
