Thanks to CNN's Inside Politics for mentioning TalkLeft during its blog segment today. I missed it but Crooks and Liars and reader Kitt sent me e-mails letting me know.

ABBI TATTON, CNN PRODUCER: Now, there's some discussion on the blogs, playing politics with this morning's ruling. Discussion of the federal Judge James Whittemore, who denied the request of the parents this morning to reinsert the feeding tube. Whittemore, as we heard earlier in this show, is a Clinton appointee and that is coming up a lot on the blogs.

Over at the right here, jacklewis.net, "Clinton nominated judge rules for death." Over to the other side, TalkLeft.com. This is a blog related to crime-related political and injustice news. Over at TalkLeft, they anticipated that this would be a theme and started looking into this judge's background, his published opinions, and says that his decisions do not show political partisanship or even liberal tendencies. So, trying to stave off some of the criticism from the right there.
