...the Rats are excellent at this and deserve credit for their political acumen, disgusting as their methods are.

It is not so much the Democrats as it is the fact that the liberal news media conducts a 24/7 infomercial for the Democrat political agenda and create controversies out of thin air to attack Republicans with.

On CNN this morning, the talking head finished a story about Delay's connection with Abramoff with the comment that a senior Democrat had labeled the Abramoff matter as an example of the "Republican culture of corruption".

On NPR this morning, the talking heads were discussing the fact that the Abramoff scandal would affect both Democrats and Republican Congressmen so they labeled the Democrat involvement as "business as usual" for politicians.

If Clinton had been in the White House during Katrina, the Big Story would have been how Clinton conducted one of American history's largest rescue efforts to save poor black people. Since Bush was in the White House, the Big Story was how Bush hates black people because he had not rescued every last one of them 36 hours after Katrina had passed New Orleans.

Well put. As befits your name. I suppose we can take some comfort from the fact that no matter how low the President's numbers might be at any time, they are always better than those for the media. Still, the never-ending onslaught of the press gets to be tiresome. I would like to see more direct attacks on the media, naming names and impugning their motives, by Republican leaders. Direct and open warfare would be preferable to the constant game of playing defense and denying charges.
