NorthSideSox72 Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I'm fairly impressed at the AG's office doing this very much against the political winds. It makes me upset because Stevens is a slimeball by all accounts, but, I'm happy that the AG's office is doing the right thing from their perspective.

Stevens should be thrown under the bus, but you can't break the law to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you have foreign dignataries giving us a pen set made from the same wood as the Resolute and ours gives DVD's, I'm sorry, it's a total lack of respect for the history of your office.

Well, I disagree, but more importantly I think it just doesn't matter. The actions of our government are more important to me than the silly symbolic crap.

It makes you look like a total idiot when you don't. Everyone wanted to bash the s*** out of GWB for "image" but now it doesn't matter? That's what bothers me about it.

BearSox Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 I see Biden's daughter has been (most likely her) caught on film snorting cocaine. I'm glad for her sake the msm isn't reporting this, but you all know for a fact if this was Bristol Palin, all these stations would be playing it and in slow motion, and all that crap. The amount of bias (and hate for those who don't agree with them) coming from the media is pretty sickening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of what you may think of media bias, one thing I can guarantee they wouldn't do in either case, is show the video on MSM news networks or websites. No way that happens.
