Why are there no MSM reports about St Paul police actions on Aug 31

They arrested several journalists including Amy Goodman of Democracy Now. Is the MSM giving this ugly news a pass because it might taint the “good feelings” about the RNC convention?

Here’s the link to a full report from Glenn Greenwald!

Check out the videos. The behavior of the police is reminiscent of scenes in Beijing. If I can believe some of what I read about Sarah (Barracuda) Palin, it sounds like St Paul police actions reflect some of her heavy handedness as government executive. Oh dear, what am I saying?

Is this all part of the mavericky style of McCain? How does this compare with the mood and actions of security in Denver last week, especially at Invesco Field? Needless to say the comparison is not complimentary to McCain & Co. It all smacks of McBush and McCheney!

In case anybody wonders why a Canadian blogger should bring this up, we have felt the heavy weight of Bush’s bad 8 years and we are praying that Obama throws the bums (GOP candidates and advisers) out!
