Tom DeLay Wins Again!
This is hilarious!

Apparently our Yellow Media isn't doing enough to smear Tom DeLay in his home state of Texas. Or the Texans just aren't buying it.

Next stop: The General Election.

That asshat deserves no respect.

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.

So, Texans prefer money laundering to liberalism?


OK, that's just hilarious.

Actually it IS hilarious - in a very bizarre way.

There always HAS been more to that Ronnie Earle lynching attempt of DeLay than meets the eye.

I'll be the first to admit that I don't know what all is going on down there in Texas. But, like in Iraq, there's a heckuva lot more going on than the liberal media is willing to say.

Liberal media?

Liberal media is a conservative lie. Most of our media (tv, radio, billboards, newspapers) can be traced back to 5 companies that are anything BUT liberal. And when we are talking most we are talking about the mid 90% range.

Time Warner, Disney, Murdoch's News Corporation, Bertelsmann of Germany, and Viacom (formerly CBS) -- now control most of the media industry in the U.S.

Liberal media is a conservative lie.

Liberal media is a conservative lie.
http://www.corporations.org/media/
I have a link (which I can't find at the moment) discussing how many news outlets endorsed Bush and how many endorsed Gore in the 2000 election.
Bush had the most endorsements.
In fact, historically, republicans typically have the most endorsements.

People who talk about the "liberal media" are often just repeating a conservative lie...

(added later...)
Found this info on the 2000 election...
http://www.tipponline.com/articles/00/ep110200.htm
"The editors and publishers named the candidate they believe is winning in their home states - and these results give Bush 301 electoral votes with Al Gore gaining 237.

At the same time, the survey revealed that the nation's newspapers have endorsed Bush over Gore by a better than 2-1 margin."

Still looking for the history of the E&P majority endorsements...
