Is the "Liberal Media" actually helping the right?

During the 2000 election, I remember the moment I began to decide to Vote for George W. Bush. Well THAT line should clear out the poseurs.=) Anyway, it was when that reporter, I don't remember his name, Confronted candidate Bush with a Twenty Five year old DUI. Bush just turned and faced the guy and said 'yeah that's true", No denial. No obfuscation. No excuses. And no foney apology. I thought,"If this is the worst thing they have on this guy, then this is a guy I should look into", and I did. I made my decision based on a lot of things But sometimes I wonder if I was the only one who saw that and reacted that same way. I'm sure there were others and I also wonder, if that reporter had been a little more professional if we would be sitting here discussing the last eight years of McCain's Presidency. Even though the press has been more focused on the wrongs of the right, I think in the long run they make the party stronger. Mark Foley was only a Congressman, but what if he had run for Governor? And he was still chasing teenage boys? THAT would be Really embarrassing. But thanks to a media that made him famous for 15 minutes (or was it two weeks?)we don't have to worry about Mark Foley. I can sleep well at night knowing that a Vulture Press is doing their level best to find anything they can that's wrong with Sarah Palin. And Believe it or not, I'm sure that Sarah Knows this too. If SHE got a DUI 23 Years ago we'll know about it soon enough... On the other hand, While the press ignores problems on the left, they are allowed to stink up the place and fester. The longer that this is allowed to go on, The more people see what is really going on. The problem has always been that more people don't see it because the press ignores it. I have often said that "it's not that the press lies to us. It's that they are very selective with the truth". But this has been changing in the last few years, The media is no longer confined to three networks, two papers, and a radio station. So, when the a newspaper or magazine decides keep a plagiarist on staff, Or use Photoshopped Pictures to spice up a story, they can't control the outflow of news anymore. Or if a leading anchorman uses foney Docs to back up a spurious story, we can call them on it. We don't expect them to come clean since they have been getting away with it for so long. But at least it's no longer just "Freedom of the press, To anyone who owns one" Now before the negative comments begin. If you want to tell us how many Republicans are crooked, Don't waste your time. We all know that there are crooked Republicans. That is nOT the argument. We are talking about media coverage and re electing bad politicians. Like Marion Barry for example. Ted Kennedy. Or My favorite, William Jefferson D. La. If you want to make negative comments you must answer for these guys first. Then I have some more names to add to the list. Positive comments can began right away +D!!!!!
