Nobody's there and the MSM yawns

We keep hearing over and over that the president has many vacancies in the Treasury Dept. under Tim Geitner. But according to this report, on a blog no less, Obama has appointed just 73 people to 1,200 jobs that require Senate confirmation. But the president seems to find the time to have parties several nights per week and pose for magazine covers.

Question -- Why is it that the mainstream press is not making the connection between the president's extracurricular activities and the empty job posts? Why does it take a blog of all things to make this connection?

And last -- would the mainstream media have failed to make this connection if the president were, oh, I don't know, a Republican Texan?

And people are surprised that major news outlets are going the way of the 8-track?
