Case in point are Ann Landers and Michael Moore, two very outspoken talking heads that find themselves almost at the opposite extremes on any political spectrum.

I believe you mean Ann Coulter. :D

I voted too soft because I can never get tired of hearing people bash Bush.

but as for the media, Most are either Democratic or Republican in their Reports, I want one that is in between so that I could get some truth, instead of politicians just trying to blow smoke up my A$$.

But Democrats and Republicans are the basically same. It's not as if you're getting a left-wing bias and then a right-wing bias, you're getting a right-wing bias then a slightly crazier right-wing bias with a Southern accent.

... Outspoken conservatives tend to believe that the Press is too harsh on Bush, whereas outspoken liberals believe that it (sic) is too spineless to stand him up...
I think this pretty much sums it up. ;)

The press harasses Bush about things that don't matter, but blindly accept things that they should question.

My hunch is that it's varied. After 9/11, and through when he went into Iraq, the impression I got was that the mainstream American press had put kid gloves on when dealing with him. But in recent months, especially after Katrina, as his popularity has dropped, the mainstream press is more willing to publish stories that don't reflect well on him or his administration....
I need to look for these threads before all the good points are taken.:p Nicely stated gentlemen.:clap

This too, is true. That is why im an Independent.

It just goes to show you that politicians are robots. Or do they just compete over who has the biggest penis, I'm not sure.:149:
