MSM (in the form of Newsday ) only now just waking up to the welfare-expanding, work-relaxing clauses hidden in the stimulus bill. ... It's not like it's the day of the vote . ... Newsday was tipped off by Ambinder's page , apparently. ... A couple more weeks of debate and, who knows, maybe the story would filter up to the New York Times (though it would still have to get past the paper's  "meddling" editors .**). ... [ Thanks to reader S .]
