ap isn't allowed to swear.Is there any difference in the reporting from the Hussein loving liberal biased AP %26amp; the anti-America dailykos?
As with all questions of this ilk, the truth is that the so-called liberal media is neither liberal nor conservative. It is corporate. It runs on ratings and advertiser dollars. The media started covering Obama more than a year ago because he was an oddity that drew attention from their audience. As he grew more and more popular, they covered him more and more. Individual reporters sometimes show bias, on BOTH sides of the aisle, but the networks themselves go by what sells. The same applies to print media. Every newscast I've seen in the last six months has covered both Sidney and Obama. And the great majority of them, on both sides, have given the correct facts, although some slant them one way and some the other.
The fact that you disagree with some of the things they say and you don't want to hear them doesn't make them biased. It makes them a free press, something we're supposed to have according to the Constitution.
Who's the terrorist pal?
In light of Sarah Palin dredging up old, disproved lies about Barack Obama and William Ayers it is important to remember (and much more relevant) that she repeatedly courted a secessionist group founded by someone who openly professed hatred of the American government, cursed our flag, and wanted to secede from the Union. Sarah's husband, Todd Palin, was a member of this group, which continues to venerate that founder to this day, for years.
As you already know, the group is the Alaska Independence Party, which sees as its ultimate goal seceding from the union. Todd was a member, with a brief exception, from 1995 until 2002, according to the Division of Elections in Alaska.
And there's no doubt that Palin repeatedly courted this secessionist organization over the years. In 1994, Palin attended the group's annual convention, according to witnesses who spoke to ABC News' Jake Tapper. The McCain campaign has confirmed she visited the group's 2000 convention, and she addressed its convention this year, as an incumbent governor whose oath of office includes upholding the Constitution of the United States.
The founder of the AIP was a man named Joe Vogler. Here's what he had to say in a 1991 interview, only a few years before Palin attended its convention: ';The fires of hell are frozen glaciers compared to my hatred for the American government.';
He also said this: ';And I won't be buried under their damn flag. I'll be buried in Dawson. And when Alaska is an independent nation they can bring my bones home.';
Vogler has also said: ';I'm an Alaskan, not an American. I've got no use for America or her damned institutions.';
And while we're at it, how about her preacher laying hands on her and protecting her from witches? How main street America is that?
Douglas K Daniel has always been a nutjob. He isn't a reporter, he is a democrat hack and always has been.
