CNN had Obama winning in their polls. However, I suspect that Fox News, with their fair and balanced methods, had McCain winning by 105%.



Its always so bloody hilarious to see a leftist perceive simple balance as bias.

They were so used, for so long, to their own monochromatic view of the world being reflected through every mainstream media news or entertainment source in the past that when Fox came along they actually saw a bias...

Psychology is such an interesting study...

Of course, this is only two decades old; I'm sure with effort one could find something from when McCain was eight. ;-)


The idea that Obama was only eight years old in the mid-nineties for the five years he worked closely with Ayers on the Annenburg Challenge is a bit strange, and the idea that he had no idea who Ayers was when Ayers threw Obama's political coming out party in his home, is a bit facile, don't you agree?

THere is no conservative running.


Correct, and that's the main problem with the Republican party as presently constituted.

Authentic classical liberalism of any but the most diluted kind is now absent in that party (which is why I'm no longer a member of it).

McCain is a poor candidate, but Obama is the most sickeningly infantile joke the Democrats have yet foisted on the American public (with Kerry in third place and the megalomaniacal lunatic Al Gore running a close second)

On the other hand, forget what I posted above. After all, Obama spent twenty years sitting in the pews of a church while a fuming anti-American racist demagogue ranted from his pulpit and never noticed until he was running for President who Reverend Wright was or what he represented.

If anything, Obama seems to have distinct problems paying attention to what's going on around him.

Either that, or Obama knows, and has always known, exactly what was going on around him and who is friends and mentors were.

But then we're back to the other problems, aren't we?

Fox's balance only holds true if you see the world on a slant. Their reporting could never pass US News and World Report muster. Fox simply follows the political philosophy of Rupert Murdock.
