Is a Garage Really Newsworthy?

Ok. The news media continues its never ending zeal to attack Republicans and particularly Karl Rove. After all, it's his fault we 'stupid flyover country hicks' elected George W. Bush, and not Senator John F. Kerry, who fought in Vietnam. You think I'm exaggerating about their coverage? Read this story from AP:

Karl Rove's Garage Proves to Be Typical

He is "the architect" who steered George W. Bush to victory four times, twice as Texas governor and twice as president.
But can Karl Rove organize his own garage? Can the master of Bush's political planning figure out where to put the ladders, paint cans and cardboard boxes?
Rove's wife, Darby, raised the white garage door one morning last week to show journalists outside the million-dollar brick home that the deputy chief of staff, assistant to the president and senior adviser wasn't home. All the interest came on the eve of his testimony Friday before a grand jury investigating who in the White House might have revealed the identity of a CIA operative.
There was no car in the garage. And the stuff left behind turned out not to be much different from what gathers dust inside most American garages.
The inventory, seen from outside:
_Some cardboard file boxes stacked one on top of the other, labeled "Box 6," "Box 4" and what appears to be "Box 7." No sign of boxes 1, 2, 3 and 5.
_What appear to be paint cans stacked alongside a folded, folding chair.
_A rather large wood crate marked "FRAGILE" and painted with arrows indicating which way is up. On top of the crate, two coolers.
_A tall aluminum ladder.
_A snow shovel leaned in front of another cardboard box.
_Wicker baskets inside of wicker baskets on top of a shelf running the length of the rear wall. Transparent plastic storage bins crammed with indiscernible stuff. Another cardboard box.
_In one corner, the rear wheel of a bicycle sticks out, along with what appears to be a helmet.
_Another ladder, this one green, leaning sideways.
Like the story first states, Rove steered Bush to a victory in 4 elections, including the last one in 2004, over Senator John F. Kerry, who fought in Vietnam. But is this story REALLY necessary? Ok, I can understand the media hanging out at his house, waiting for him to come out. These pack of vultures really need more to do with their lives. But to actually take the time to:
  1. Look into his garage and some how be ASTOUNDED that he would have yard tools, boxes, etc. in his garage.
  2. Take the time to write notes on the contents of the garage.
  3. Actually compose an article.
  4. Think that this is newsworthy.

Well, to them, maybe it is newsworthy. These liberals, after all, think that Rove somehow fooled Americans to vote for Bush, so they probably thought that he would have witchcraft books, a satanic alter for ritualistic ceremonies, and a satellite relay system that transmits hypnotic waves through Fox News to get Americans to not vote for Senator John F. Kerry, who fought in Vietnam. And they wonder why their market share continues to fall.......
