                     PROGRESSIVE BUT NOT PARTISAN?

  (Mr. COBLE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. COBLE. Mr. Speaker, much has been spoken and written about the 
White House snub of Fox News. We have heard little, however, about 
MSNBC. Anita Dunn, the departing White House Communications Director, 
was quoted in a recent New York Times article claiming that Rachel 
Maddow and Keith Olbermann, MSNBC hosts, are ``progressive but not 
partisan.'' Well, they surely fooled me.
  Some may agree with Ms. Dunn by concluding that these two are not 
merely partisan, but rather fiercely partisan, and Ms. Dunn insults our 
intelligence by claiming otherwise.
