A New York Times reporter, James Risen*, is being threatened with jail time for doing his job. And if he really does go to jail and absolutely refuses to name his source, then maybe he can claim to be Mr. Mojo Risen Jim Morrison spoke of in his song: “L.A. Woman”? Because if he really sticks to his guns, then surely he’ll become a hero here in L.A. once he gets out of jail! Right? Like with The Pentagon Papers?
(Who am I kidding? L.A. is an Obama stronghold: no matter what incompetence or corruption his administration gets up to, they’re all for it here in L.A.! They don’t even mind the traffic during presidential visits. Mr. Mojo Risen probably should move to Texas, where they mostly hate Obama already no matter what.)
* (No, not Fox News’s James Rosen: Apparently the Obama Administration’s Justice Department likes intimidating reporters with similarly spelled names. Maybe they confused them, but as usual, were too arrogant to admit their mistake and doubled down on it? That’s Washington, D.C. for you: Hubris City, USA!)
