• July 14 -- No Aid for Bush's Liberal AIDS Cause
One would think an administration embarking on an aggressive campaign to fight AIDS in Africa would get support from the liberal media. Nope: "The administration's AIDS effort is under sharp scrutiny because it so big, so unabashedly Washington-dominated and tinged by the administration's political ideology."

• October 14 -- The Post
Outclasses the Times
At least one national newspaper recognizes an "obvious mistake" when it
makes one.
• August 6 -- Times Promises Warm
Liberian Welcome for U.S. Troops
Wednesday’s Times continues trying to coax the U.S. into Liberia, with
visions of welcoming natives.
• July 30 --
Yankee Come Here!
After lamenting the “rush to war” in Iraq, the Times wants U.S. troops in
Liberia yesterday. The headline to Somini Sengupta’s story from Monrovia is
headlined: “Oh, if Only the G.I.’s Would Come Marching In.” She also suggests
the U.S. wasn’t wanted in Iraq.
