What does Sheehan have to do with the price of tea in China?  How is she in any way related to the Tea Party?

Nothing at all, except to demonstrate the damned double standard in here and in the media about the treatment given the rabid teabaggers vs. lefties. And it gives me grounds to post this pic:

You were SERIOUS before? "[C]orporate masters" stuff and all?

Yes, serious as a heart attack. The media reports what is in the best interest of their owners 99% of the time. Every once in a while they do something differently.

Obviously, there is no proof, but there is strong correlation. Hell, half the posters here think TW does it every day.

And yes, guido, there is a double standard. We probably disagree on what that entails, though.

So it was in the corporate interests to bash/blame Bush, a pro-business president, to near death every day and prop up Obama (thrill up the leg and all)? Please explain.

First rule of business: Never piss into the wind.

If the progressive wing of the Democratic party is going to elect a President, you want that President to be Obama. He's all about corporate interests, as is evidenced by the health care bill that got passed.

That looks like quite the hookah. Do you disagree that Obama is about as pro-business as Democrats get?

Obama is 100% pro-business.  He's a bit anomalous.  Because he grew out of the Chicago Machine he learned that through the power of BIG BUSINESS he could be granted power.  All of his policies are geared towards empowering a small handful of very very large conglomerate organizations that he can keep his thumb on and vise versa.

You think Clinton wasn't pro-business? If not, what exactly is/was the DLC about?
