I've worked in media and I do believe there is a bias. Its not the liberal bias that conservatives whine about nor is there a conservative bias.
The Bias is middle of the road - any ideas to the left or right of center are dismissed.
George W Bush according to his own hand-picked 9/11 commission attacked Iraq without "Any credible evidence linking the events of 9/11 with the nation of Iraq" There has been no evidence of WMDs and under OUR system of government you don't kill people first and look for evidence later. 70,000 Iraqi civilians died in the first week of bombing alone.
Saddam was tried for killing 2000 Kurdish rebels who had tried to assassinate him. Saddam was convicted and hanged.
What about Bush's trial? Why did the wimpy Democrats Pelosi and Reid, stop any talk of impeachment?
Shouldn't Bush get justice? The same justice as Saddam received!
Perhaps because most of the Democrats in Congress voted for the war in Iraq and so thus are equally complicit?

Sanrene of course will be next to become invisible, 5ft 1" bully that she is. One of the obvious folks with a brain in her head that post here.
I want to share something with you. It is a link that a friend sent me that deserves your time. It is a snippit from an interview with Harry Reid. It is a classic example of what you are dealing with on these posts and in the political world of the socialists. When you see this ,you will see just how, not only ignorant, but how blatantly low an I.Q. this man possesses. People like this and Pelosi, and Franken are heroes to these people and we wonder why their lemmings represent themselves as they do. Please let me know you could find this. I promise you it is worth your time and -unbelievable. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7mRS18yWwg
I took you off ignore when you gouged me about Franken awhile ago you goober.I can take it as well as I dish it out and if you want insult me,make it creative,not like that other drone that just keeps talking to hear his head rattle.
GWB... Great man, great president.. You would have to be smart enough to be a Republican to know it.. The ignorant here will continue to live on in a fog....
The losers that continue to condone Bush's crimes deserve to wallow or drown in the muck that this crime family has left behind. Too bad that any improvements that the Obama administration is able to achieve will be available to the die hard Bush enablers. Instead of admitting the truth about Bush and rooting for a new administartion to get our nation back on track, you spew your unpatriotic, biased hate. Follow Bush to Paraguay or Dubai, you are a mere twenty something percent of this country and we can do without you.

Fair enough my friend. I too can take it. My intent is not to be resident insulter. I only get cookin with them that want to cut and post and through lame bulls... from the liberal throngs of information available none of which has the most miniscule sense of objectivity. Them that want to hate a President, that for all his shortcomings ,was just what this country needed to keep it safe. Without security nothing else matters.
In short order, as Obama takes hold the left will begin to see the necessity of much that was Bush.
This countries interests as related to the Islamofascists, is not serves by dancing around the campfire in pink tutus singing cumbayah. People that have served in any well placed position in the military understand this and those that have the ability otherwise to discern understand. Those that have not are welcome to their tutu's.
After placing the United States in the gutter, Bush simply jumps aboards Marine One then flies off to Texas, leaving the country in the toilet.
Where is the accountability? For me, this is very disappointing; because I was truly looking forward to the Secret Service escorting Bush from the White House and being flown to Federal prison in handcuffs.
Bush leaving office? Looks like Obama will be serviing Bush's third term for him.

Had media not demonstrated this kind of bias, we likely wouldn't have had a George W. Bush as president.

Yes, they will...especially the poor ignorant souls who still think dubya is a remotely good man. He is a murderer and should pay for his crimes. Even most republicans I know agree and did not vote for him in his last election. For most, it was the first time they voted for a democrat in their lives...that alone says volumes.

You know, I am one of the biggest critics of Bush, but even still, I can't place all our woes at his feet. Many of the problems and issues facing this country were here long before Georgie and will remain after he is gone.
George W did a lot of damage, of this I have no doubts, but we, as in you and I are as much to blame as we did little to voice our our dissent.
I questioned the wisdom and validity of the Iraq war/occupation before we ever invaded and I spent years being called every name in the book for it. Even still, to this day I feel I could have done more. So while it is easy today to pick on Georgie boy, and he is deserved of it, that does not diminish our duty as citizens to do our part to hold our leadership accountable for its actions. We are a free people, its time we started acting like it.
Sicky; you must have been equally incensed when Clinton started the wiretapping program. You were, weren't you? I assume you called for his prosecution as well, right?
Equally maddening must have been when the clinton administration and all those democrats in congress called for a policy of regime change in Iraq. Yes?
Just answer a couple of questions;
WHAT were those UN inspectors looking for in the weeks leading up to the invasion?
WHY did no other intelligence department from other countries dispute the belief that WMD's were in Iraq?
Based on their own intelligence, what made the world think he had WMD?
Was the whole world using just US intelligence? Didn't they have their own?
See, when you start asking and answering these questions truthfully, then you might find the cure for the affliction.
