Yes, the media is very Democratic. It is pathetic. What ever happened to reporting the news, not making it themselves?

They've been trying to rewrite history ever since Clinton left office!! His legacy is a POS so they've tried to trash republicans so Clinton can look good in contrast.

Buchanan and Scarborough must be getting very well paid. they're the token conservatives at MSNBC, and frequently treated like their opinions aren't worth a ****.

The media in this country has, for some time demonstrated its own agenda--witness Walter Cronkite's false assertion that the Tet Offensive was a failure and the Vietnam War was a lost cause. All throughout the Vietnam War, the U.S. media proved to be a much more difficult foe than the Viet Con.

In 2004, the contest between President Bush and Senator John Kerry illustrated to the whole world just how biased and unfair the old liberal media really is. The clumsy amateurish attempts by the media to fabricate a story, complete with phony documents hastily fabricated using modern word-processing software, clearly indicated that CBS bigwig Dan Rather and company were more than just a little biased for Kerry. As a result, Dan Rather's career was effectively ended

At the same time, the old media failed miserably in their shameless attempts to discredit the Swiftboat Veterans for Truth. Fortunately, The Swiftboat Veterans had thoroughly documented evidence which completely unraveled Kerry's baseless claims of heroism in Vietnam. By so doing, the Swift Vets struck the fatal blow to his inept campaign.

During that campaign, there were endless calls for every scrap of paper from Bush's National Guard days, but John Kerry saw fit to release virtually no information from his time in Vietnam.

It's been four years and the media still to this day say Bush was "selected not elected". They never mention that the recount proved it would have ended the same way without intervention by the Supreme Court.

If Barack Obama's past had been subjected to one tenth the media scrutiny during the full year of his candidacy, to which Sarah Palin has been subjected, Hillary Clinton would no doubt be the Democratic nominee.
Today there is a flurry of disgusting attacks on John McCain's health, physical and otherwise, yet Bill Clinton, has yet to release his medical records. I have always wondered what he was hiding.

And can you imagine if a Republican called Obama an "African-American who is articulate, bright and clean?" The media would have jumped on him like flies on a fresh turd. But, being a Democrat, he was rewarded with the number two spot on the 'change' ticket.

In the old days before the Internet, this kind of hypocrisy went mostly unnoticed by the American people whose attention span was short. Now, when liberal media outlets revel in Sarah Palin's "Troopergate," it will only remind us of Bill Clinton's scandal of the same name, which ended with a contempt of court citation, suspension of his Arkansas law license and a hefty $850,000 out of court settlement. And when they question Palin's lack of experience, it will only serve to remind us That Obama has even less.

You've gotta love Obama's"connecting with the people" night at Barbara Streisand's gig to the tune of $28,500/plate. Jon Voight wasn't invited,needless to say. If your white and you don't vote for Sen. "O",you're a rascist. If you're black and vote for Sen."O" you're not a rascist.Huh? I think the guy is the first "white guilt" promoted candidate we've ever had. Pitiful.
