Wow. This “Big Pharm” memo is crushing to Obama, totally catching him red-handed in a major lie. This is devastating to his credibility and to the chances of the health care bill.

But the really big news is that Huffington Post is the one blowing the whistle. The Honeymoon is most definitely O-ver!

HuffPo seems to be moderating lately. I suspect they’re trying to transform themselves from an ideological echo chamber into a reputable news source. Probably with an eye toward some sort of broadcast venue.

I doubt they’re actually moderating behind the scenes, but they’re way too far off on the fringe at the moment to play on TV. An appearance of moderation helps get a foot in the door.
