I was gonna comment on Jane Hamsher's actions as of late, particularly her FOX and Friends appearance.
This blog entry by Steve M. at no more mister nice blogs expresses what I feel pretty much.

The only thing I disagree with is Steve M.'S assumption that Jane made an innocent naive mistake in making her appearance. I've also read her "explanation" for going.
For this, I call BS.
Ms. Hamsher is incapable of the level of stupidity necessary to believe Fox News in general, much less Fox and Friends, invited her with the intent of having a genuine debate with her on the Health Care issue.
She knew what was going to happen, and she went regardless.
Some may question why. To me that doesn't matter. What matters here is that she compromised her "principles" to suit her cause.
I've always believe the principles of an ideologue is worth less than nothing, because that can change whenever it's convenient. And this proves it.
But the message to those supporting her in this decision is this.
Where are your priciples?
I was lead to believe that it was "Obamabots" like me who, as Bill Maher like to say, put "People over Principle". I encourage those who have been a supporter of Ms. Hamsher and following her lead up to this point to engage in some soul searching. Is this the kind of crap that you really think progressives should be about?
