Well so far today I have not heard any comments or questions about Dingy Harry's comment about Bush being a loser. You'd think they'd mention it, huh?

Good point. I remember ALL the Sunday shows spent at least two weeks on Trent Lott's words to Strom Thurmond on his birthday. The press were enraged. Strom was a racist, and now Trent was too, and therefore, all Republicans also. Now they yawn over Reid's comments, which were deliberately mean-spirited, rather than being an attempt at kindness at an old man'd birthday party.

Tht's one reason I wouldn't count on the MSM chastizing the Dems if they walked out of the Senate. They'd at least remind everyone that the Republicans did this too under Newt, and therefore it's not that big a deal (even perfectly legitimate--since the Republicans started it).

The press deines being biased, but continues to give evidence of it on a daily basis. Truly delusional. Gratefully, I think more and more folks are beginning to realize this. Our job is to remind them with examples such as yours.
