 BK>>  Here is more of what he had to say, what you didn't hear from  the
 BK>> right wing media. When Cosby made similar comments I saw  posters
 BK>> on the right gloating over it. Not this time.
 
 RN>> The media is anything but right-wing.  They are much too liberal.
 
 FS> Liberals will *always* deny the "news"media are liberal.

 BK> Frank, unless you are denying that there is *ANY* right wing
 BK> media, that is a non-sequitor.

There *is* a white-wing newspaper, The Washington Times, but that 
is one among *hundreds of left-wing "news"papers ...
 
 FS> However, recently I saw a NEWSWEEK magazine which had a
 FS> dozen or so political cartoons, presumably typical ones
 FS> during the past year. *Every* one of them was anti-Bush,

 BK> Frank, now days that's more and more coming from the right. Bush
 BK> has disappointed those who previously supported him.

Did you support him?  Has he disappointed you?

 BK> I warned, before the election, if Bush won the right would be
 BK> more disappointed than we would be. It's coming true.
 
Dream on, Bob ... [sigh] ...

 FS> with *none* of the funny anti-Democrat cartoons one would
 FS> expect.

 BK> Editorial cartoons make fun of those who hold power. Since this
 BK> country is completely under Republican control, at the national
 BK> level, all our problems can be laid at their doorstep.
 
Republicans may be the majority in the Congress and White House 
but they are *hardly* in control.  Consider, for example, the 
pests the Democrats made of themselves during the Alito hearings.  
Kennedy, Biden, rather than asking probing questions gave long, 
long harranges -- followed by a question mark ... we were really 
disgusted by them -- "we" meaning the American voters in general 
and we will remember this for next November's elections.

 FS> They concluded with something Dan Rather had said
 FS> as he closed his final news program, "Courage".

 BK> Very appropriate. We will need it to get through the next few
 BK> years.
 
 FS> They somehow "forgot" why it was he was pushed out of that job
 FS> -- because he had presented false anti-Bush documents as
 FS> *true

 BK> So far there is no proof, or even evidence, they were false. All
 BK> that was ever shown is, it is possible they could be forged on a
 BK> computer. By that standard, since money can be copied on a
 BK> computer, you should not accept money anymore. Or send it to me
 BK> for verification, at least.

 BK> Rather had little to do with putting that on the air. It was
 BK> done at the producer level, and the only real failure they had
 BK> was they didn't verify it well enough.

The "ONLY" real failure?!?  Bob, that's a basic tenet of 
journalism -- check your source!!!!!
