Batiste.</strong> Is that the guy fured because they didn't want to be seen to be biased ? Well, a petition from MoveOn.org should sort that right out. Seriously were the ones at GeorgeSoros.org and codepink not working or something ? You just spend a week harping on about someone quoting a military principle stated by an acclaimed military commander who also happened to be linked to the KKK. WTF did you learn from that if not the fact that the messenger can make the message irrelevant ? Because you were giving the lessons retards.

Why should a journalistic enterprise pay someone for analysis who is committed to not merely commenting on the news but influencing it? Besides CBSNews is fine with checking in with Batiste for comment, they just won't have him on the payroll to do so.
