Sure.  Keep thinking that.

US: Air America on Ad Blacklist?
ABC document: Sponsors shun liberal network

Then there's this quote from Rush circa 2003.....

"...the sponsors of these protests were not peace protesters at all. They are all talking about racism, environmental wackoism, feminism or other liberal causes. Very little about these protests was about the war in Iraq.

If they were for peace, they would give every dollar they raise to the U.S. defense department because it's the U.S. defense department that keeps the peace and liberates the oppressed in the world and gives them the opportunity to have freedom, which is what we want for Iraq. It's beyond me how anybody can look at these protesters and call them anything other than what they are: anti-American, anti-capitalist, pro Marxists and communists." - Rush Limbaugh

Conservative and corporate induced media bias and political hackery exist on a daily basis, yet I've been treated to DECADES of incessant whining about liberal media bias.....

a couple of favorite Sinclair Lewis quotes.......

"Advertising is a valuable economic factor because it is the cheapest way of selling goods, particularly if the goods are worthless."

"The trouble with this country is that there are too many people going about saying, ''The trouble with this country is...''"

I don't remember you using this quote during the Bush II era.

I guess you don't remember using this quote during the Clinton era.
Feel free to enlighten me if I was wrong.
Because I remember giving George W Bush a great deal of goodwill after 9/11 and supported the invasion of Afghanistan... and I agreed more with Bush's centrist immigration policies than most Republicans did...

I guess you don't remember Ken Starr?  
Or Limbaugh calling it the "Clinton hostage crisis" after Clinton won the election in 1992.... or "the largest tax increase in American history."
Or the rumors that Hillary Clinton killed Vince Foster?
Or the "swiftboat veterans for truth"?

I refuse to equivocate Bush's 2000 electoral college win with Obama's clear 2008 win.
Even then, this country united behind George W. Bush after 9/11... would Republicans unite behind Barack Obama if another attack happens....?  God knows the Cheneys wouldn't...
And I won't equivocate Obama's first year with Bush's 6th year.

I will stand by my opinion that George W Bush was the worst American president since Jimmy Carter.

The idea that liberals will not defend this country is bogus, as Obama will prove in the coming years.

If you are referring to me using the quote from SL, consider your enlightened and wrong.  I would not have said that, especially during the Clinton Admin.  I'm sure others used it as SL died in 1951 (from alcoholism) and there was plenty of time for that quote to make the rounds.  Yes, I looked him up on the Web as I am not a big Sinclair Lewis fan. I remembered his name but that was about all.

That's kind of like saying some of my best friends are...

Not everyone liked the Clintons.  Exaggeration is part of politics.  I don't remember anyone saying that Hillary Clinton herself killed Vince Foster.  I only remember hearing the rumors that the Clintons had it done.

I think Kerry engaged in some questionable activities after his gig in Nam.  He certainly had the right to toss his medals.  I suppose the guys that went to Canada could claim to be patriots by not fighting in a war they didn't believe in.

Depends on his response.  I expect that even the Cheneys would would support an appropriate response from Obama to a major attack like 9/11.  I don't believe the US would have rallied behind W if he said something like "We're really angry.  Next time we will be even more angry."

Let's hope he doesn't have to prove it.

equivocate... did you intend to use equate?  My dictionary is a  bit old but it defines equivocate as:

"to use ambiguous or unclear expressions, usually to avoid a direct answer or in order to mislead; hedge."

Oh I see, being a liar means your a fascist. Waiting for your fascism condemnation on Obama's "pass stimulus and unemployment will not get above 8%" or "I'll televise the health care negotiations on C-span" (summarized) lies. Or what about this Mussolini-level lie:

I dare say there's quite a difference between the "death panel" claim and making a forecast about the future of the economy.

Of course there is a difference. Palin (republican) said "death panels" and your guy said the other things. Noticed two other things about what your post, which by its silence concedes: 1) You appear to agree with ruf's position that lying=fascism, and 2) that Obama lied in at least those two other examples I gave. Oh, and that "forecast about the future of the economy" thing, it cost us about $1 trillion dollars. Did "death panels" cost us $1T?

Well duh, Sarah Palin is a fascist. It fits in all threads. Seriously, you make a fair observation.
