Great article that underscores much of what I have said about the media and its lack of the so-called liberal bias.

I'll play:

They are being WAY too sensitive, as you are too IMO. Yes, they are framing the article about short comings in the Obama administration as it pertains to the Economy. I never saw one place they absolved Bush as the Truthout website claims. It states that Obama's plan was hinged on the economy growing at 3.2% in 2010 and if it doesn't, drastic changes to the Obama policy will need to be made. Nothing in that article "faults Obama and largely absolving Bush" based on what I read.

It's kind of like if an opposing view is published in a news paper then the whole paper is suddenly under right wing control. I'm not buying what the Truthout people, nor you Slider, are selling me.

Not surprised - guess you can't handle the truth. The mind is like a parachute - it only functions when it is open.

That is your opinion and you are entitled to it, as are we all. At least you read and thought about the article, and I thank you for that. However, the facts speak for themselves. And this whole mentality of liberal media that is in the tank for Obama is total bullshit.
