I got sick of the political spin about two paragraphs in, I'll be back from the washroom in a minute
. . .
I'm no fan of either Kerry or Bush, but I despise people who have to use negative campaigning, because it means that they have little faith in their platform.

Just? Read that again, the whole tone of the thing just gets increasingly negative.
I wouldn't mind it as much if it was fair and balanced, but it's hopelessly skewed against the guy.

Hmmm, Rush Limbaugh skew or bias the news? The Hell you say. He'd never, ever do that. Gimme a break. Gal, you complain about Liberal bias in the news and then counter with Rush Limbaugh? Come on.
Hmm, the guy that once said that all drug users should be put away forever, suddenly has discovered the word "treatment". Heh.
Or, better yet, Limbaugh's comments on the Iraqi prison scandal,
Ya might wanna pick someone who isn't a nut case for defending your positions there Gal.

Yes I would expect a dodge from the topic on hand. I was speaking of the nut case Sorro.
But that's why I but the warning on there, the liberals love for Rush. Oh one thing, we conservatives freely admit were bias. Unlike liberal who continue to lie, thinking their fooling anyone.

Galadon, one warning only...
This is a place for intelligent discussion, not flinging the brown stuff around.

Mod here or not, I'll tell ya this Galadon: Insults will not make your argument stronger, they'll just get them dismissed.

Gal, sorry for being obtuse, but what facts are you telling? Something spouted off by Rush Limbaugh? Gimme a break.
Look, the opposite of biased is not biased in the other direction. The opposite of biased is unbiased. Now, to be fair, it is extremely difficult to find unbiased reporting, but, two things should be kept in mind.
First: Not all the world's media is the same as America's. We do not have the tradition of the "public's right to know". Which means that the news we get doesn't have to be as sensational in order to be heard. Why do you think there aren't "Shock Jocks" in other countries? We don't need people to feed us the news in pablum sized bits to be digested. Please, please, try reading some of the publications from OUTSIDE of the continental US.
Second: Even if you do agree with the slant of a report, at least have the intelligence to recognise the slant. Rush Limbaugh has made a career from pandering to the most knee-jerk, conservative sound bites he can find. He rarely actually makes a point. Merely picks holes in others in a vague attempt to sound intelligent. For the love of little fishies, DON'T let Rush Limbaugh do your thinking for you.
In other words, you can't complain about liberal skew in the media and then trot out one of the most biased, unprofessional, criminal, talking head's in America.
