It's a two-fer, as the staff at Politico continues its noble tradition of typing up as news whatever conservatives are talking about.

First up Mike Allen who didn't simply report on how Sen. Lamar Alexander had given a speech on Wednesday and claimed the Obama White House now resembled the dirty trickster from the Nixon years and that Obama was busy compiling an “enemies list.” Nope, Allen's article went one better--he reproduced Alexander's entire senate speech; all 37 paragraphs.

Then came Eamon Javers who wrote an article about the fact that the Drudge Report has been linking to lots of articles about the weakness of the U.S. dollar. That's is. That was the news; Drudge had linked to 18 articles this month about the dollar.
