Midknight Review -- new and revised: Want to know just how important the media thinks it is - this all-nighter a few of the Senate Dems are pulling, tonight? Hint: Not very.

Compare the two lede's below, about the all-nighter, with the lede about Sharyl Attkisson. Make note of the outlets reprinting the story line. Six, total, for the sleep-in on global warming; 25 news publishers for the Attkisson story.

Obviously, Barbara Boxer staying up all night, talking about the fantasy of global warming, is not news . . . . . and then, they all will go home, tomorrow, and sleep it off. Just another publicity stunt during this election cycle. Too bad they didn't stay up all night, trying to figure out how to put America back to work, balance the budget, or fix Social Security as Obama had promised, or do something about the Ukraine. Whatever.

Don't you love their sense of priorities??

Coral Davenport / New York Times:

26 Democrats Plan a Senate All-Nighter on Climate Change — WASHINGTON — The Senate was headed into another all-nighter Monday evening as 26 Democrats who call themselves the “climate caucus” planned to speak nonstop about climate change from about 6:30 p.m. until 9 a.m. Tuesday.

Discussion: Politico and Althouse

Democrats to stage climate ‘talkathon’

Discussion: Washington Post, The Fix, Daily Kos and The Reaction

Dylan Byers / Politico:

Sharyl Attkisson resigns from CBS News — CBS News investigative correspondent Sharyl Attkisson has reached an agreement to resign from CBS News ahead of contract, bringing an end to months of hard-fought negotiations, sources familiar with her departure told POLITICO on Monday.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
