“I’m beginning to think we’re living in a Soviet-style country in which the media is VERY one sided. Not controlled by the Dems, but they might as well be.

I agree with you. And factor in the Obama so-called ‘truth squads’ (read what’s going on in Missouri), and it truly smacks of control. Interestingly, last night on the local news (I live in Illinois near St. Louis) the St. Louis county prosecutor, a member the so-called Obama ‘truth squad’ used a whole bunch of words and a little ridicule to rebut the view that they were supposed to attack anyone who “didn’t tell the truth about Obama.” Then the reporter (local Fox News) interviewed someone who said McCain has a truth squad, too, and how much better it would be if a bipartisan group performed that function.

Draw your own conclusion.

We shouldn’t get hung up on the words, “Truth Squad”. It makes sense to have an organized group in your campaign whose purpose is to ferret out untruths about your candidate and refute them. Obama’s “Truth Squad” seeks to PROSECUTE critics! Therein lies the glaring and dangerous difference.
