Normally, I 'm sick of everyone's fascination here with the media and your contention that they are just "a bunch of damn liberals", but I must admit...







Live with it...

Women with teeth like that make me afraid, very afraid!! If you can stand giving MSNBC a hit-go inside the article, there is one of the most unflattering pictures of Daschle ever-looks like he just sucked on a lemon or maybe he got too close to Nancy's teeth!!!

Where is the BIAS is that graphic? It is for a story about the DEM's plan so how is it biased?

Bias? What Bias? I saw EJ Dionne of the Wash Post say liberal bias is a myth this weekend on TV.

Read the headline below..."Bush's plan faulted". And if you read the actual article, all it is, is "so-called" economists bashing his proposals. If there was no bias would't the WP have included some "economists" who think it's a good plan and WILL help the American people/economy?

.



The Liberally Biased article reads...


Focus on Jobs.
Democrats to unveil alternative stimulus plan.
Bush Proposal Faulted.


An Unbiased Article would read...


Focus on Jobs.
Republican Stimulus Plan to be Released.
Democrats to unveil alternative stimulus plan.



And a Conservative Biased Article would read...


Focus on Jobs.
Republican Plan presented.
Democrats find fault with his plan.

Democrats will offer federal funds to local and state goverments for social program spending. They will want to create govt. jobs, and give tax refunds to those who don't pay taxes. Little to nothing will be directed to the private sector or to tax payers.

Let's face it: Regardless of what the headlines say, the picture does not leave one with a positive thought about the RATS.

Thats why msnbc is circling the bowl...like the turd that it is..it will be flushed...

Actually, the web site routine dukes it out with cnn.com for the #1 news site ranking. It's very strange given the complete disaster that is the TV channel.

Well, okay, not that strange; when MSN is shoving every single one of its millions of users onto your pages, you're going to get a hell of a lot of hits. That's just sheepherding, though, not an indication of the true merits of the site.

Oh come on, can't you see that Pelosi is FIGHTING for the little guy in that picture?!

Fangs barred = Subliminally fighting.
