Internet reveals our Priorities

Question: Which of these NY Times articles, put into their political blog, is more important:

“After Flyover of Air Force One Backup, Military Office Director Resigns”, the resignation of a, frankly reasonably competent man after making a high profile error.

“Pelosi Criticized Over Interrogation Briefings”, concerning how much information the then House Minority Whip now Speaker of the House knew, and thus was complicit in, the Bush Torture Program.

Now. After answering that question, here’s the next question: Which story has 122 comments and which story has 311 comments.

Though I’m pretty sure the “Obamas New Puppy” story had like, 9 million comments, and trumped them both.

( ResignationPelosi.)
