I don't see how this could be any more biased than if it had been written as a parody :-(

Once again, liberals flock to the defense of a terrorist...

[JohnHuang2]

Had this been the Clinton administration, ABC "news" would be worshiping at Der Slickmeister's feet.

[gsrinok]

Yet, the leftists continue to claim that we don't have a liberal media. The arrogance and willful blindness of these people boggles the mind.

[nopardons]

It's exactly like the friends, family, and neighbors of an accused child molestor/killer, whinge and complain about how he was an A student, alterboy, and "good " to his parents. Liberals don't EVER care about the victims, only the criminal.

[JohnHuang2]

Bingo.

[gsrinok]

Liberals don't EVER care about the victims, only the criminal.

Thank you for posting that. I can't imagine a better explanation to sum up the liberal agenda regarding justice and national security.

[nopardons]

It's a fact and facts matter. :-)

"One would have to ask yourself, would this have occurred at all without the government?" said Gerald Lefcourt, a criminal defense attorney.

You have to admit, that is an interesting thought. I wonder if this whole case could get thrown out because of entrapment.

......on federal drug charges, officials told ABCNEWS.

Officials????

Could these be State Department officials?????

Could these be Clinton appointed officials at the State Department?????????????????

Well, we all know about the State Department!!!

Wait a minute!! ABC News????

As much as I KNOW that persons in the State Department would do this, I think I will wait until I hear something similar from a reputable news source!!

Oh it was a "Setup". Well then I see, we best let him go then huh!

ROTFLMMFAO!

The absolute best (short) example I have seen of media bias in a while.

I had to send this to some of my less consevative freinds along with this:

While channel surfing tonight, I happened to catch that Aaron Brown on CNN had a reporter talking about this story and was asking him if he thought there could be any proof that it may be entrapment by the agencies involved. I could not believe what I heard but then again it was CNN. Now I see ABC is doing the same. It must have been a talking point that come out of the DNC today.

I got to disagree a little bit. To liberals, the criminals ARE the true victims. Victims of discrimination; victims of drug, alcohol or physical abuse; victims of an uncaring, capitalist society; victims of whatever else that the criminals might use as an excuse for breaking the law. The victims of the actual crime just become another statistic.

It was such good news for Homeland Security and the Bush administration that we caught these guys that I just knew the Rats would have to try and spin it as a bad thing. No surprises here - just confirmation about what we knew all along - the Rats and their willing accomplices (the media) will do ANYTHING to make the administration look bad.

ping for media bias in the extreme

[doosee]

In London today, Lakhani's neighbors described him as a quiet man who worked in the garment industry and had faced serious financial problems.

Now this is really a stretch. This sneaky greasy little terrorist is jetsetting around the world, owns a pretty nice flat in London, and has time on his hands to work on blowing an airliner, yet they say he had serious financial problems. Are these people for real?

ABC News - All Biased Censored (read DNC talking points) News.

Yeah, and give him a nice hug, an apology, and his missle back. It was only one missle afterall, don't you know?
