As Bush the Younger fades from the news and from the consciousness of progressives – there is a palpable hate gap that needs to be filled. Since the Republicans haven’t found a central leader yet, Sinister Sarah has been preemptively appointed by the Liberal Media.<br /><br />Therefore, all progressives and lefties everywhere have been given official license by Evan Thomas, Katie Couric, Maureen Dowd and other Liberal absolutists to make full use of sexism along with the usual lies, derogatory remarks and dark assertions to destroy her. Official Liberal Policy also targets Palin supporters for similar repudiation and personal destruction. <br /><br />The problem they have with Sinister Sarah is how can she also be portrayed as Simple Sarah? She can’t be both a diabolical doyenne and a dumb bimbo too. I’m sure they’ll figure it out though.PoliticalPlot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05499251502667320895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-6908655470029856022009-11-18T10:25:13.542-05:002009-11-18T10:25:13.542-05:00We most definitely have to give them credit when t...We most definitely have to give them credit when they actually point out bias. However, I agree with you. Newsweek stopped being a "serious news magazine" quite some time ago.<br /><br />Back in 1985/86 when I was in speech and debate we had to use news sources for extemporaneous speeches. Judges HATED it when the only info on a topic we could find was in Newsweek because it was almost impossible to find objective info on any topic in that magazine. In order to give an opinion speech with YOUR opinion in it, you have to be able to find supporting information. And even back then you could not find non-lefty slanted anything in that magazine.<br /><br />So here we are, 20+ years later and the left has been given a pass so long news organizations (I use that term VERY loosely) no longer even TRY to be objective. In fact, if they can, they WILL slip outright lies into their coverage and nine times out of ten refuse to correct it or put corrections in where the random public will never see them.<br /><br />It's diabolical and pathetic all in one. But it's something I've schooled my children in so they know NOT to count on the news for information without ensuring they've checked for bias first. And we do it with FoxNews, too, for all the angry lefties out there.<br /><br />You have to be a skeptic when reading the news anymore. And you have to use your head when you read something outrageous or you'll wind up looking like a clueless idiot in the end. Which is what many Sarah Haters have done. And I've kind of enjoyed watching them look stupid along the way.Mad Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16055022545485624112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-87714182263143517462009-11-18T10:13:53.558-05:002009-11-18T10:13:53.558-05:00Another difference is that Hillary received bad tr...Another difference is that Hillary received bad treatment in the media ONLY when she was against Obama, a candidate the MSM perceived as more liberal in the primary and wanted to help.Gabehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10429965049921573531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-59567801808958246212009-11-18T10:01:55.414-05:002009-11-18T10:01:55.414-05:00Both Hillary and Sarah have been discriminated aga...Both Hillary and Sarah have been discriminated against by the anti-woman bigots in the media.
