Yes. I believe the media is even more biased than I did the first time I posted. Charlie Gibson’s blatant attempt to intimidate Mrs. Palin is a great example. MSNBC’s coverage of the conventions is another one. The elitist liberal press seems very upset that Mr. McCain has found a running mate with as much experience as Mr. Obama. The fine lady that runs TV3 new must give her news department a free hand in determining what is shown because as I watched. prior to Ms. Palin’s arrival, Mr. Obama pretty had the floor. Even now with the other news groups trying to defame her, TV3 covers her very little.

As far as your George Bush comment, i find amazing to this day that he is given the sole responsibility for the war in Iraq. As I remember, the majority of Congress was involved. A fact most Bush haters gloss over. Anyone in this country that believes that members of Congress are not privy to the same intelligence as the President, are sadly naive.

I hate when people claim media bias when they don’t see what THEY want to see covered. Conservatives did it with Obama, now liberals are doing it with the Sarah Palin coverage. I’m just curious if you guys still feel there’s a bias now that Palin is making all the headlines. And about the TV3 comment I know the general manager there, and there is no one with more authority than her at the station, and she’s a republican! As far as the american people being gulllible, yep they are. That’s why a large percentage of them believe the War in Iraq has to do with 9/11, and the media didn’t tell them that… George Bush did.

I hope people will read about Palin. Just recently I was discussing her record with some candidates running this fall and they knew little about her. I explained to them that we need people like Palin in Washington. We need more and more people who are willing to take on big government and bring some integrity back into Washington. I cant explain the shock and happiness I felt when I heard McCain had picked her as his running mate.

So, take some time and read about her (goggle on some Alaskan newspapers for local stuff). I think you will find that she not only has more experience than CNN wants to give her, but that any experience she needs, she will get and get it quick. This governor is exceptionable and now we actually have a candidate who really is serious about change.

This decision by Senator McCain just earned him my vote this fall. Great choice Senator.

The news folks are so blatant in their efforts to sway the election that they are losing the small amount credibility they had. It will surprise me if they have any viewers after the election. But, hey, the American public is extremely gullible. They’ll just keep believing the nonsense they’re being fed.

i see that some of the pundits are criticizing senator mccains vice presidential pick. she has not been a governor very long. before that she was in state level politics. and before that in small town government. thats so weak. only a little better than being a senator for a short while after being in state level politics after being a community organizer. if you know what i mean.
