aren't too smart. I don't consider MSNBC and half the so-called news programs unbiased.

gee, one-sided U.S. news coverage...go figure....it's how Obama
The National Guard already watches them.
Had a friend who was in Arizona for 6 months doing just that.
Anyone interested in being well informed watches Fixed Noise
How else can one keep up with what the myopic right-wing is up to, especially nobody else in the mainstream media with any ethical integrity will carry the bulk of their stories?

I never said it was all one sided.
I was just using the example of my stepson's great-grandpa who...BTW...is of no relation to me. He is a great-grandpa on my stepson's mom's side....not my husband's side.
I know that racism runs deep on both sides so no matter what people say....race does play a big part in this election. It is sad but it is also a fact.
Fox is NOT one-sided. Anyway, how would YOU

Actually, no I don't believe in one-sided tolerance...sm
This particular sign could have easily been displayed away from the creche, I feel, and it wouldn't have bothered me the least to see it.
You see, I also celebrate Winter Solstice, and the earth and the animals.
However, this particular sign seemed to be placed next to the creche to invoke upset from those who celebrate Christ's life and birth.
I like to imagine that perhaps baby Jesus kicked the sign to the ditch myself. He could have if he wanted to.
Only MSNBC and FOX are one sided, not CNN or the others AT ALL
but fox is by far the worst... at least MSNBC doesn't LIE outright.
So, you only believe in one-sided tolerance? (sm)
As in the ditch was well deserved?

Sorry, but your facts are one-sided whereas
I checked the facts on BOTH candidates. McCain is still my choice even though he's no JFK or Clinton.
In reality, neither candidate is capable of running this country but I'll take the lesser of two evils, which happens to be McCain/Palin.
Two-sided Obama

I think that's a bit one-sided. Can't put my finger on it right
now 'cause it's late (for me), but I will read it again in the morning and do a little research myself..
This is so one-sided it isn't funny!
It still never ceases to amaze me that people blindly follow their political party no matter what that party does. When are you people going to realize that this isn't totally the pubs fault. This has been a long time coming and some of it started back in Clinton's presidency. So spare me the pubs are evil and how they ruined this country single handedly because I do believe more greedy hands than just the pubs were involved in this. If you want to point the finger and place blame, at least be willing to see that your own political party should carry part of the blame as well. Pubs and dems are both to blame for our current situation that we find ourselves in. We all want to say this is totally Bush's fault and yet we fail to recognize Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Nancy Pelosi, etc. We fail to recognize that it was Bill Clinton who forced banks to give loans to people who couldn't afford them. We can't blame every single thing on Bush and the pubs. The dems had their hand in this too.
Do you feel that the dems are completely blameless?
Those that sided with the dems...
are not real republicans, they are Republicans In Name Only - otherwise known as RINOs.
Contrastly, there are Democrats In Name Only - aka DINOs, and it should come as no surprise that they are not very popular within their party either.
And the monitor obviously has one-sided rules.
All you have done since you showed up here a few days ago is attack me personally. You don't even know me, and it wouldn't matter what I posted, you have already made your mind up that you hate me, and all you want to do is call names and insult.
It started when I posted a response to Democrat's post above. Since then, you've done nothing but attack me.
At least Carla was asking intelligent questions and trying to have a meaningful and informative dialogue on the CON board. Yet, she was reprimanded by the moderator.
All YOU have done is insult and be just generally nasty and rude. In none of your posts have you made an effort to have an intelligent dialogue. All you're about is attacking. Yet, YOUR actions go unreprimanded.
Says a lot about fairness on this board.
And now, knowing how much the truth is appreciated here, I suppose I will be banned, while you will be free to continue on with your rudeness and hateful attacks.
Will you leave? Sure. *RME* As soon as pigs fly or as soon as AG stops *accidentally* posting on this board. Choose one.
Your one-sided posts are so stereotypical of your
This is not a cartoon world.
your post was just as one-sided and attacking as
What a shame. When I first read it, I was expecting it to be unbiased, but all I read in your post was negativity against Obama and defense of McCain. You probably would be better off on the gab board.
FOX is completely one sided and is a tabloid
like you
Can you get anymore tunnel vision and one-sided?
Sally is just Sam's left-sided alter ego.
What you are feeling is what Sam puts us through the 12 hours a day, 5 days a week. You guys already unanimously supported her recently and the O team will do the same for Sally. In case you haven't noticed, the dems are pretty energized now that the convention is over. Gloves are off and we'll be taking it to the mat until the final election returns are in. You have a choice. Give respect and get it back or sling your mountains of mud and wait for the avalanche. Dems were way outnumbered last earlier in the summer but the playing field is level now. This is the democratic process you claim to so staunchly defend, so quitcha btchin' and go blow your nose. It's gonna be a long haul until Nov 4.

It's all over the news - and I mean ALL news stations.
not just the ones you don't like.
Do you get any news except at the DU? ????? NM
Believe it or not, I do keep up with the news.
I realize this is an old story, but it has a new twist to it because now Gary Bernsten is now giving the specifics surrounding it.
When the news first came out that he was..sm
hosting a fundraiser for her I thought it was weird, but now that you bring it up (and it's a good question) I did some research and it appears that old Ruppert has a history of switching his backing between parties. Some believe his main objective is monopoly in broadcasting, not party loyalty or belief in party ideals (aka Big Business 102).
Excerpt from wsws.org: 'When it comes to politics, Murdoch, known in media circles as the “dirty digger,” is equally adaptable in pursuing his personal gain. The most loyal right-wing Tory and friend of Margaret Thatcher during the 1980s, as he built up his media holdings in Britain, he switched his loyalties to “New Labour” when he saw that Tony Blair could provide a fresh face for even more reactionary politics and was more than willing to further Murdoch’s interests in return for editorial backing. He made similar swings in his native Australia between the Labor and Liberal parties to further his efforts at monopolizing the print and broadcast media.'
Actually, I saw it on ABC News....
the footage of Obama not putting hand over heart for pledge. In all fairness, that is the only footage I have seen of him not doing so....never was a recipient of whatever chain email you are speaking of. Believe it...yes, saw it with my own eyes. Why he did it, have no idea. There could be a multitude of reasons why he didn't do it. Here is the big BUT...it does make one a but curious when coupled with the fact that he dispensed with wearing of the flag pin on his lapel. I heard his explanation; I am just not sure I buy it. Each thing alone not such a big deal...together, it does make one wonder, so I can see why nanna might have reservations. It is good to question things and not take everything at face value...be the candidate Dem, Repub, Inde...whatever.
Fox news
A propanganda machine for repubs. No one is obligated to appear on that network. There are plenty of other media outlets. Fox's ratings are dropping and MSNC's are climbing. Fox disguises these facts by including their entertainment ratings in with their "news" ratings. As far as ALL OTHER MEDIA being liberal, that is a transparent technique to keep viewers from getting opinions from ANY OTHER source than Fox. I certainly wouldn't fall for that bunko. I also notice that they concentrate on certain sites such as Media Matters and NY Times specifically because those sites are excellent at presenting the truth about distorted information disseminated by the propaganda machine. To each his own.
Where do you get your news?
Sorry, I'm conservative, but have to ask why you would go down that road when you can find those answers yourself.
Might I suggest worldnetdaily.com, townhall.com, drudgereport.com, breitbart.com, talk radio (and the hosts' web sites, including Laura Ingraham, Glenn Beck, Savage, Levin, Michelle Malkin, Rush, etc.). There are countless news stories that never make the mainstream media.
Another thing to consider is who a person keeps for company. When questionable names keep coming up (Pflager, Rezko, Wright, Ayers, Dohrn, etc.), that would concern me if I were considering any kind of relationship with someone, but that's just me.
Those who support Obama get their news from MSNBC, CBS, NBC, and so on. Those networks alone have been proven repeatedly to be biased. All the times that McCain went abroad, where were Couric, Gibson, and Williams? Why would any American think that the Democrats, who are determined to reinstate Fairness Doctrine, think that it won't come back and bite them? Why should any American be silenced just because one group disagrees with another?
Do you know what is posted on blogs like the DailyKos and HuffingtonPost?
Lastly, a couple more stats. The #1 most liberal Senator is Obama. Kennedy is #2, Biden is #3. Even the moderate Democrats are distancing themselves from him. This info is documented and not fiction.
That's rather left of left, I would say.
I'm already looking for my fire extinguisher, but the truth hurts sometimes.
Trust your own gut.

You have more options now than anytime in history to gather information. You can gather information from both sides of the issue and verify the facts and then make your own decision based on your personal values.

SP on ABC News
Just saw first installment of interview with SP with Charlie Gibson. In my opinion, she really messed that up! Experienced and ready to lead? No way. Danced around every question and flat out lied when asked what she said about Iraq War being a mission from God. What's the worst thing about listening to her for the first time in her own words, she says NUCULAR!!! Just like George Bush. Oh no...not again.
SP on ABC News
She was so nervous, she had big red blotches on the side of her neck. He pressed on dancing around and not answering the questions he asked. She looked like a deer in the headlights to me.

old news
This happened years ago, not yesterday. How come you are just hearing about it? Did you check your dates in snopes?
Maybe old news, but why does no one get it? sm
do you just want to ignore all the blatant truths about Obama being linked to terrorists and cling to hope that he is not REALLY a terrorist and hope that he really will do what he says? So just blindly accept him at his word and ignore all the indications that tell us otherwise. Do you not see any huge red flags waving in front of your eyes??
Fox NEWS is not the news
Joe the plumber is a plant! All your info is wrong.
Fox News
Plenty has been said about Sarah Palin's appearance, from her designer glasses to her striking similarity to actress Tina Fey.
But lately her stylish look has come at a price -- more than $150,000 of which was paid for by the Republican National Committee -- according to a report Tuesday by Politico.
The Web site cited financial disclosure records that suggest the wardrobe makeover began in September and included bills from Sak's Fifth Avenue in St. Louis and New York totaling nearly $50,000.
The documents also show a $75,000 shopping trip at Neiman Marcus in Minneapolis in September, as well as about $4,700 spent on hair and makeup, Politico reported. Documents don't show similar costs in August.

Good Evening,
1. On Sunday night at 9 on Fox News, Hannity's America will run "The Ten Reasons Why Barack Obama Should Not Be President." Please spread the word.
2. The article that follows is about Sarah Palin and the elites (both Democrat and Republican). It is well worth the read:
And this is news how?????
HA HA HA HA HA. I never trusted her. I just hope I see as less of Dillary than I do of Condi.
It's news because...(sm)
Israel is getting ready to invade Gaza and is already in the process of bombing raids. Meanwhile the current US administration (aka Bush/Condi/Cheney/etc) is perpetuating the lies about Gaza, such as who is the real terrorist, ignoring a legitimate democratically elected council, etc. The OP explains all this. Bottom line is that the US is giving Israel a green light, which to some of us (as well as a large portion of the world) is condoning genocide.
And Americans wonder why the rest of the world has such a bad opinion of us. 
Old news.......
I posted the entire article on how Obama wants to pay for abortions in Ethiopia and abroad with MY money but instead of responses of "NOT MY MONEY", all I got was criticism for being AGAINST abortion......
Go figure..... that's what I mean when I say this country has lost its loyalty to itself and we have a president who has absoluely no loyalty to this country; his loyalties lie elsewhere
I saw it on the news. It is to try
this stimulus. Also that is why Obama had townhall meetings to show congress "We the people" want this stimulus to pass.
Boy, Obama sure loves campaigning and speeches.

As far as what is said on the news....(sm)
I'm not responsible for that. Having said that though I do think that as a whole people are more tolerant (I wouldn't go so far as to say accepting). However, that doesn't diminish the fact that violence against homosexuals is still a prevalent crime.
I actually do wish more people would teach their children as you described above. If that were happening, none of this would be an issue and there would be no need to take it to the schools.
Let's take Patty, for example. She has already said that yes, she does call homosexuals names in front of her kids. She does this at the same time that she's spouting out references to the Bible. So what do you think her kids think? Maybe that it's God's will that they call homosexuals names? I don't know what they're supposed to think or how they are supposed to act given her example. Do you think she's teaching tolerance? If not, who will if not the schools?
Anybody else see this on the news?
The taxpayers just footed the bill for Pres and Michelle Obama's $20,000 date this weekend in New York. Yeah, won't we ALL be making sacrifices - all of us to pay for them? Boils my blood to see any one in politics spending public money on such foolishness and so excessively.
