Liberal bias in the press. Yeah, it happens.
28th August 2007
As I was gleefully reading the story of Larry Craig’s adventures in the Minneapolis airport, I came across the following paragraphs:
The scandal had already taken a political toll. On Monday, Craig resigned from a prominent role with Republican Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign. He had been one of Romney’s top Senate supporters, serving as a liaison for the campaign since February.
Asked about Craig, Romney said, “He’s disappointed the American people.”
“Yeah, I think it reminds us of Mark Foley and Bill Clinton. I think it reminds us of the fact that people who are elected to public office continue to disappoint, and they somehow think that if they vote the right way on issues of significance or they can speak a good game, that we’ll just forgive and forget,” Romney said on CNBC’s “Kudlow & Company.”
Foley is a former Republican lawmaker who resigned nearly a year ago after being confronted with the computer messages he sent to male teenage pages who had worked on Capitol Hill. Clinton is the former president accused in congressional impeachment proceedings of lying about an affair with a White House intern.
“Accused?!?!” Excuse me, but it’s a FACT that Clinton lied about his affair with Lewinsky. Stuff like this, unfortunately, gives credibility to those on the right who rant and rave about the media’s love affair with the Clintons and other Democratic leaders. Do you think reporters and editors really don’t notice that they’re doing this?
