Great Example of the Bias Keeping Sean Hannity Up at Night

In my friendly feud with Woody, he said that the media would be destroying Obama if he were as vulnerable as Palin. I disagree. I think "the mainstream media" is as pro-Obama as Fox News is anti-Obama. For a fantabulous example, click this link and look at these two Us magazine covers. The first discusses why Obama loves his wife. The second on Palin has the headline, "BABIES, LIES, AND SCANDAL." Now what's funny is, if you read the article, it turns out the "LIES" refer to false rumors circulating about Palin. Yet that's not the impression one gets from the cover.

  1. "he said that the media would be destroying Obama if he were as vulnerable as Palin. I disagree. I think "the mainstream media" is as pro-Obama as Fox News is anti-Obama."

    There's a problem with the reasoning here. Why can't it be that the mainstream media's favoritism towards Obama is based upon his not being as dumb as Palin, or at least in part based on it?

    I think that there is something to your idea Palin is being crafty, by the way -- although she's no rocket scientists, she is deliberately acting stupider than she really is, for the same reason that GWB, the scion of wealthy New England Patriarchs, educated at Eastern private schools and Yale, puts on a phoney hick accent when he speaks in public. They are maki9ng a deliberate appeal to the portion of the population too stupid to know that being called "Joe six pack" is an insult, the people who enthusiastically sing along to:

    I'm a redneck woman
    I ain't no high class broad
    I'm just a product of my raising
    I say, 'hey y'all' and 'yee-haw'
    And I keep my Christmas lights on
    On my front porch all year long
    And I know all the words to every Tanya Tucker song
    So here's to all my sisters out there keeping it country
    Let me get a big 'hell yeah' from the redneck girls like me, hell yeah

  2. "Us" is the mainstream media?

    There's all kinds of bias our there, of course; the MSM was famously vicious to Gore, for example. But the MSM remain a part of the establishment and despite liberal leanings have been essentially toothless in standing up to Bush.

    The page is so wonderful that I want to write something about myself.
    I am so happy to get some latale online gold and the latale gold is given by my close friend who tells me that the latale money is the basis to enter into the game. Therefore, I should buy latale online gold with the spare money and I have gained some cheap latale gold from other players.
