If you're pro-abortion, you're a reasonable, rational, non-judgmental moderate and all good modern thinkers agree with you. The media are a huge part of the problem here.

How can you honestly say that? The press did not give Clinton a free ride. However, they (the press) always have a pro-abortion spokesman on. They give more airtime to right wing conservatives like George Will, Keyes, and Buchanan. Can you name 1 real left wing spokesman that has as much airtime as George Will? ...and by the way, Clinton is not a leftist; he is a moderate.

No, they didn't give Clinton a free ride, but some things he pulled were so obviously scandalous that they had to smack him around a little bit. And they do give conservatives airtime, but look at how they're treated in "straight" news coverage (a la Dan Rather) when nobody's being interviewed. As for Clinton being a moderate, he didn't get to be the leftist he wanted to be (see Hillarycare and the 1994 election). Check out Bias by Bernard Goldberg sometime. You'll see what I'm talking about.

They most certainly did, with regard to policy.
