No, the media doesn't really have a liberal bias. The problem is that conservative representatives promise really stupid crap that is easily mocked; like Cruz running commercials here in Florida claiming that if he's elected he'll abolish the IRS...

Hmm! I'd like to live in your world but I believe Alice beat me to it.

ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, NPR are Democrats posing as journalists.

No, since otherwise it would not have given Bush much more of a free pass in 2000 than it gave Gore.

The media is ran by war/security profiteers and are complete war mongers. The media were apologists for Bushs's war mongering and are apologists for Obama's war mongering. Actually it seems they are much more apologetic with Obama.

Hell no. Only neocons believe that... Conservative media is the dominate media in the US. Fox News #1, talk radio Rush #1, Hannity #2. Conservatives wallow in their own pity while being told America is under attack... And than they go collect their government assistance...
