It was a question asked repeatedly during today’s White House press briefing, but some conservatives are lashing out at CBS’ Norah O’Donnell for asking Press Secretary Jay Carney how the Democrats benefit, if at all, from the final debt deal. The controversy began with a post from Commentary Magazine entitled “CBS’s O’Donnell to Carney: ‘We Got Nothing,’” which was technically a correct quote, except Commentary omitted some key words preceding that statement: “You have Democrats saying…”According to Mediate, John Podhoretz was the first to help spread this smear and it was also picked up by Breitbart and The Other McCain.
So far, the latter two have not offered a correction or retraction.

The Conservatives, in the main, don't want it. They are willing, under pressure, to seek the people's opinion on the matter.
