Today's resignation of MSNBC president Rick Kaplan is one of the few facts that has burdened the GE-sponsored cable news network in its past few years. The unremittingly liberal programming -- so laughably biased that many conservatives have boycotted it for years -- has driven its ratings down to Air America levels. Kaplan's departure is the inevitable result of pluperfect liberalism interrupted only by brief glimpses of Monica Crowley and Joe Scarborough.

When will liberals ever learn that pretentious, tendentious, doctrinair programming is as commercially unsustainable as liberal policies are electorally unsupportable?
