"Manufactured Failure", Cont'd.

Here's James Fallows' update on the "manufactured failure" of the Obama visit to Asia. Seems some of the mainstream media are wondering, gee, how could they've missed the behind- the- scenes stuff (it's called diplomacy) that's now bearing fruit. (Hmmm, Chinese set CO2 target reduction goal for the first time. Hmmm, Chinese join in censure of Iran nuclear program.)

Maybe these Rethug-wired geniuses should put down their Drudge Report tweets and put their awesome journalist skills to work on ... oh, right, they have no journalist skills.
