There's No Liberal Bias in the Media
The Boston Globe ran a top of the page online poll today that asks this question:
The Red Sox or the republic?
Globe columnist Alex Beam asks: If you could choose only one, would you rather see John Kerry win the White House, or the Red Sox win the World Series? (Reuters Photos)
your view: So, which is it?
And please spare me the "God" is a "she" stuff that the PC crowd tries to foist on us. It was annoying enough in college and law school. It makes me immediately gag and whoever the writer is gets instant credibility loss.
Suppose She came to me: How would I like my prayers to be answered? Well, I certainly have my beefs with the current occupant of the White House. But I am not an Anybody-But-Bush person. To paraphrase a famous quote by boxer Joe Louis ("There may be a whole lot wrong with America, but there's nothing that Hitler can fix"), there is a great deal wrong with the republic, but I am far from confident that John Kerry & Co. are the solution to our woes.
If you can get past the initial impulse to lose your breakfast with the "She" reference, notice how the writer says he's not part of the ABB crowd, but then he goes straight to the Bush/Hitler comparison. He could have used any number of metaphors to describe Bush, but he chooses the Joe Louis quote that speaks of the genocidal madman. It's no wonder that as the election nears OUR PRESIDENT (yes, even yours if you're an American citizen and in the ABB crowd) is getting credible death threats. Watch what you wish for.
