-Caveat Lector-
My point was not Woodward, but the press in general--media at large, so to
speak. TO this day, the name Nixon=crook, cover-up, scandal, etc. The man
was driven out of office for his sins while Clinton is on TV shaking his
finger in our faces while lying and nothing happens to him. I, too, liked
Nixon for getting us out of VietNam if nothing else. My point is that the
Democrats use the media every bit as well if not better than the
Republicans. Unless something drastic has happened that I have failed to
notice, the last polls I saw stated that the media (TV reporters/major
newspaper and magazine writers) were something like 80% liberal in their
actual voting. I cannot bring the survey to mind but if needed could find
it. With this sort of "friends" doing the bulk of reporting, I find an
almost consistent liberal/Democratic party bias to the news. Newt Gingrich
was thoroughly vilified in the press in every conceivable manner.
I think there was a choice made--charge Clinton on the sex thing or the
China thing and the sex thing was chosen as the far lesser of the two. A
conspiracy within a conspiracy but Starr has his own China connections to
worry about becoming too public. I my lifetime I he never seen a more
morally bankrupt administration--not even close. Yet, the have remain the
media darlings and get very little negative coverage. Some of the things
such as Clinton's Russia Tour would have been made much of before his
election if it had not been for this blanket of protection afforded him
personally and most Democrats/liberals in general.
That's what I think and that's what I know. :)
