Based on some of your other posts....
are you a right winger who believes the "liberal media" is out to destroy Bush?
- Keyser Soze - 08-12-2003
im an independent that thinks the media is out to destroy every president. its par for the course.
- Doc - 08-12-2003
Hell no
I'm not a strong right-winger, I'm really moderate.
About the "liberal media trying to destory Bush", I think that's just a load of crap. While some media outlets have been more aggressive than others, most are just reporting the truth or a slightly editorialized version that sells better. The same thing was done by the media against Clinton...so did they just change party affiliations in the past 3 years? There are some outlets that try to push a certain agenda, or try to debase the current administration because they want to get more Democrats in the House or Senate this Fall, but that is more the exception than the rule.

Fair enough,
I think it works out well for the right to decry the "liberal media", it lets them discredit everything printed that they don't like, and adds greater weight to attacks against Democrats.
Personally I think the media was far more intrusive upon clinton and dredging up his past.
I think Bush has gotten a pass for his DUIs, cocaine, and alcohol abuse.
More time was spent on Clintons haircut on the tarmack then was spent on Cheney's ties to Enron or Haliburton getting the "rebuild Iraq" money.
just checking to see where you lie on the political spectrum.

republicans have Rush. democrats have the 'vast right wing conspiracy'
- Doc - 08-12-2003
Oh yeah, it's go to be nice to be able to debase everything that is reported that you don't like. Woner if I could pull off something like that when my next performance review comes around at work
And Bush's DUI's...do you know he got pulled over for drunk driving in like 1973? Do you know how drunk you had ot be to get pulled over in the 70's? You had ot have flames shooting out of your ass for the cop not to say, "You go straight home buddy, and take the backroads". But in his defense, he did become a born-again Christian after that and hasn't had a drop in years.

I never accept being "born again" as a defense of character,
rather a further indictment.
- Keyser Soze - 08-12-2003
i think bush snorting cocaine is a bigger deal than clinton toking pot
- diceisgod - 08-12-2003
So how about that weather?
