Facts and Fairness

For those who can't tell, I tilt a little to the right. So you may think what I'm about to say is just my spin on what's actually going on. If you think that, you're wrong.

Sarah Palin was chosen as John McCain's running mate on Aug. 29, 2008. I write this on Sep. 3, 2008. In the last five days, all of you have heard about Palin's daughter. All of you have heard about the investigation going on in Alaska about her brother-in-law. All of you have heard that her husband got a DWI when he was 22 years old.

Contrast that with Barack Obama, who is running for PRESIDENT, not vice-president. Have you heard about his ties to domestic terrorist Bill Ayers? Have you heard about Obama's connection to a minister who says that 9/11 was America's fault? Have you heard about Obama's campaign in the Marxist party in the mid-1990s?

If you have heard these things, I'm impressed. It means you're really looking into and evaluating this election. If you've not heard of these things, it's because the media outlets aren't talking about them. Why, you ask? Because the media decided a long time ago that it wanted Obama as our next president.

I don't care what your politics are. What's going on in the media is absurd. You want an example? Here's an example. Contrast these two covers of the same magazine, published two months apart:



I'll leave it at that.
