I agree. This is a harbinger of times to come. Any republican, any free market advocate will be demonized by the ‘utopian minds’ of the media, in their push for “fairness” ( defined according to the left, ie, socialism).

I wonder why it is so difficult for people to see the human sacrifice that George Bush has been made. The target of a relentless, systematic and dishonest media with the ultimate tool at their disposal...a 24/7 moving billboard of sight and sound to manipulate the thoughts and feelings of everyday people.

The media is the ruler now. It is a very different country I fear, these days.

The reason the Media is still king, is that all they have to do to effect MASSIVE political change, is to convince only 10% of the electorate. These same 10% are fairly unprincipled folks, I used to call them idiots, not so sure, but they are probably fairly unprincipled, or people with vague principles. Anyways, they are easy pickens for the MSM.

Truth is, I am ASTOUNDED that McCain can still win Florida, even with the MSM bias, plus the non-stop Anti-McCain adds. McCain is still getting 40+ percent at least, so all is not lost. Unfortunately, as I said, it only takes 10% to make a relatively massive swing...

Sadly, I fear you’re correct.
