Media Bias.

By lance on October 7, 2013 12:49 PM | 7 Comments

In an interview with Politico, Senator Harry Reid argued that the media is being unfair to Democrats in its coverage of the shutdown. Reid said he believes that there is no way someone viewing the situation objectively could conclude that Democrats are at fault for the shutdown.

I'm guessing Reid has seen some internals that the rest of us haven't. Naturally though, he's wrong, as the article makes clear.

Woot! Thanks Ed.

Democrats are to blame. Don't believe me? Argue with Thomas Sowell. He articulates it far better than I can. http://townhall.com/columnists/thomassowell/2013/10/04/who-shut-down-the-government-n1716292

That the Dems in the Congress and White House prayed to their gods every night for a shutdown is well documented. That they thought they'd win the 2014 House election with a shutdown was clear.

So, yes, the polls must be turning against them.

Looks like the Senator has found a 'hairy reed' in the wind...but then what should one expect from a 'polly-tischun'.

Must be because the 'shutdown' has resulted in a flaccid economy...or the wives are looking pretty good now.

It must be really bad if the some of the MSM political arm of the Democrats is rebelling. It is great that the weasel is getting some of his own medicine.

I love it when they over reach and their plans explode in their faces. Anyone with half a brain has figured out the so called shutdown is about Obama political games as usual. The low info crowd will still blame anyone but dear leader however.

About Kate

Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.

This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."
