LOL! Wingnut complains of 'liberal media bias' in Ft. 'Musgrave' Collins!
Edited on Tue Mar-28-06 09:36 PM by woldnewton
"When we conservatives get together, after the Pledge of Allegiance, the opening prayer and paying homage to Ronald Reagan, the next order of business is inevitably complaining about the liberal bias of the media.

Time to time, we find evidence of this liberal, anti-conservative, anti-Republican bias in the local press, even in a fine newspaper such as the Fort Collins Coloradoan."

1. Yeah, I saw this, too!
I guess as we get closer to November, the nut jobs will be reminding the rest of us about all the "good news" coming out of Iraq. I wonder if Tom and Mary Bender are going over to Tikrit anytime soon? I wonder if M-M-M-Musgrave has any hand in the rebuilding of water infrastructure in Baghdad? I also look forward to the "immigrant/terrorist" issue becoming the next stabilizing fear for these clowns to rally around, given their atrocious record to date in keeping our country safe.

I guess once the meeting gets started, to find fault with "liberal media bias" beats hell out of finding fault with Republican ineptitude, corruption, apathy, and disinterest in the world we're about to leave our children. But I also think this can be a good starting point to get the discourse rolling between both sides again: The media today sure ain't what it used to be! Remember Sam Donaldson getting up in Reagan's face after Iran Contra broke? Remember Cronkite counting the days our hostages were held in Tehran? Every Goddam Night? What the hell happened to the fourth estate? Rock on, Helen Thomas!

2. His closing line is a tad....ummm...blasphemous?
"I rest my case. In the name of Ronald Reagan, amen." I think that is more than just tacky, it should offend truely religious Christians.

And more whining, don't these people ever stop? Liberal bashing is fine by them, but if things are not 99.9% laudatory for the GOP, well, they don't think that's fair at all. Who keeps making all this kool aid the GOP keeps guzzling?

3. Write back to LTTE:
"Ronald Reagan is not Jesus Christ, so in the name of Jesus Christ, amen!"

I'm Jewish, btw.

6. LOL The pot calling the kettle black.
The Coloradoan in Ft. "Musgrave" Collins is not liberal. And while the repuges are liberal bashing and trying to draw sympathy for themselves, maybe they should take a closer look at who owns The Coloradoan, as well as other Colorado papers like The Denver Post, etc and what party they belong to as well as how much money they gave to the Republican party in past elections. And while they're at, take a good look at many of the editorials in these papers favoring the wingnuts. The press locally is not as free and objective as it would appear. More like a monopoly.

And despite what Fox News and the Clear Channel would have us believe, they are not "fair and balanced" in their news and that includes right here in Colorado.
