I was just joking. It's very hard to display sarcasm and joking tone in typing.

I am far from a pre teen. Not sure how old you are but i am 24. To the guy who said he was the best president...i really hope your joking. Not Joking at all. How he has handled the War on Terror is as good as I could hope for. Would any of us have handled it any better? Being the president is a hard job and as time goes by he will be looked on in a much more positive light. If I expected perfection from my president than I could say he is terrible president but I do not. I see a man that had just become the president thrown into a horrible situation on 911 and has responded as good as anyone could. Could he be better? Of course but we could all be better in our lives. I am not one to bash my president just because it is the hip thing to do. I give him a lot of credit for what has been thrown in his lap and will not just blindly bash him without thinking about it like so many people do. I say before you bash President Bush look at your own life first. How has he handled it well? Because of him i lost friends and family he didn't handle anything, His daddy, mom, and wife handled it all hes to busy trying to shove the triangle peg in the round hole.

He has handled it very well. Things are going better now. You can't expect things to go well right from the start. People are so impatient. It takes time to get things done. The surge is working and things are going to be great. History will look at this President as one of the great ones. I can only hope when Iraq is done we can move on to Iran and straighten those people out.

We took care of what we needed to didnt find those WMD that he claimed was there and now we need to get the out. He got us into this mess and he wont even get us out it will have to be done by a democrat and yes it will be Clinton.

This President is already looked upon as one of the WORST statistically in the history of our nation and as time goes on as were feeling the ramifications of all the damage that has been done he'll stand alone at the top of the mountain as the worst ever.

Iran is a big threat. We need to go in there and take care of them before they come in here and take care of us. Don't believe the corrupt far left brain washing media.

Don't believe the corrupt far right brain washing media. Your wrong. The media is overwhelmingly far left and pushing an agenda. Who the are you talking about? Give me three sources of "Liberal" media and why. Fox -owned by Rupert Murdoch a well known conservative that has nothing but conservatives on their programing. Bill O' Riley Hannity, ect featured on FOX. NBC - Owned by GE. MSNBC who does feature Olberman a liberal, but my cable operator dropped that station even though it was successful(during an election year hmmmm) and he is squashed by conservatives that are surrounding him. ABC - Owned by Disney....need I say more? Lets not forget that 9/11 made for TV movie which was really inaccurate that they put out there. CBS - Owned by Viacom which has profited off this war having money invested in defense. The only Liberal media are independent NON-mainstream sources, most news papers are owned by big corporations that donate money to the conservative party. The right wing radio pundits scream that there's this conspiracy of liberal media, only to make them selves out to be victims which is a bully/manipulative tactic. Explain to me why only liberals are requesting the fairness doctrine to be reinstated if they monopolize the media?

Bill O Reilly is an independent. If you watch his show you will see that. He often shows and backs up with facts how the networks along with papers like the new york times all bury good news out of Iraq because they do not want to do anything to make Bush look good.

The television media is dominated by the liberals, the radio market is dominated by the Conservatives. THAT is why they want the fairness doctrine re-instated.
Regardless of which bias it is, either way it's biased, and pretty much full of crap either way.

He's a registered independent only to coincide with with Fox's "fair and balanced" motto. He was before that a registered republican It's obvious your getting facts skewed from one of the biggest renowned liars in the media, do your own research man and stop listening to biased radio for info. As far as the papers are concerned, I'm not sure how old you are to remember this, but when the Clinton sex scandal hit the media it was front page material for years bashing th living hell out of him for something that's not even politics related. Bush has been in so many scandals, most of which are buried in the back of the papers. The Downing Street memo should have been the biggest story of the century, but it was only mentioned twice that I saw on page six of the paper

He also goes againist both sides on his show. He plays it fair down the middle. He has proven how the media is pushing the far left agenda.

I'm sorry requesting the for the fairness doctrine to be reinstated would be absurd if they're in control of the telelvision media. Here's one I almost forgot, My favorite source for American news OPB, because they are fair and balanced and show pundits from both sides equally. The President cut spending to that program and put a well known conservative as the director of it a little while back. I don't see where the liberal media is, unless it's comedians who aren't a viable source of info.

“The Media Elite,” a book written in 1986 by Robert Lichter, Stanley Rothman and Linda Lichter, surveyed 240 journalists at ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal, Time, Newsweek and U.S. News and World Report. It found that in the presidential elections of 1964, 1968, 1972 and 1976, on average, 86% of responding journalists in America’s top media voted Democratic.

I love how your reporting crapfrom over thirty years ago. Before founding the CMPA, the Lichters, along with co-author Stanley Rothman, did much to bolster the myth of the liberal media with their 1981 book The Media Elite, based on surveys of journalists' private views. Curiously, the study frequently compares the attitudes of journalists to a survey of corporate managers--rather than providing data on general public opinion--apparently to make journalists appear more "liberal" than they otherwise might. The book has been widely criticized for its methodological flaws. (See Columbia Journalism Review, 11-12/85.) While the CMPA is often described as "non-partisan," it certainly seems to be a conservative project. Fundraising letters for the launch of the Center contained endorsements from the likes of Ronald Reagan, Pat Buchanan, Ed Meese and Pat Robertson. Support for the group comes from the most prominent right-wing foundations, like Olin, Coors and Scaife. While Robert Lichter has said that "it's not in a scholar's blood to have an ideology," he's also criticized journalist like Peter Arnett for "seeing themselves as citizens of the world" rather than as patriotic Americans, according to an AP report (4/27/91). www.fair.org/index.php?page=1972 Source

more proof www.capitaleye.org/mediacontribs.6.2.03.aspMedia is far left just look at the chart. Plus they are all out to get Michael Savage who is the most sensible person I know of besides Warrior of course. Warrior also gets attacked by left sites like TMZ last week. People just call warrior and savage right wing nuts but I dont see them that way. I consider myself more to the right of Warrior and Savage. They just use the truth which bothers people.
