You must have been too busy to notice when Michelle Bachman (R-MN) called for an investigation into certain congressional members of the Democratic Party for being anti-American. She insinuated that Obama was anti-American too. Of course she "misspoke" which is another way of saying that she accidentally didn't lie (just like Jerry Falwell "misspoke" when he blamed 9/11 on America's acceptance of homosexuals). Whoopsie!! How Embarrassing!!

Nobody is denying that the media is biased. You're naive if you think it's biased left or right-- it's biased towards the status quo, and it's biased towards making money.
But you're right, it must be the media-- it's not like the average American had any reason to question the leadership and credibility of the Republican Party that had essentially run this country into the ground during the previous 8 years.
Alas, if only the Republican Party had some way to get their message out. If only there was some way for them to completely dominate political talk radio on the AM band. If only there were a couple of 24 hour cable news networks which would repeat Republican talking points verbatim. If only they could rely on one 24 hour cable news network to consistently give them favorable coverage under nearly every circumstance.
Matthew, I can only hope (and I say this with the utmost sincerity) that the conservative viewpoint can somehow begin find its way to the masses without being tainted by those evil, Shakran-esque liberal elites.
