How to deal with the Double Standard?
I am tired of the Political Double Standard, are you?

I am tired of things like:

Bush is a war hero, but Kerry is a fraud when it comes to the Vietnam War

Clinton gets persecuted (yes, that's right I said 'persecuted'), but with Valerie Plame, 9/11, and the war in Iraq Bush gets next to nothing done to him

I am also tired of the claims of 'The Liberal Media Conspiracy' and such.

There must be some way to deal with this and of course we can deal with it without having to stoop to their level. Any thoughts?

3. It's the media, and we need to control the FCC for starters
The more independent, local media voices out there, the better for us. Diversity and independent ownership is our strength, not theirs. When only five corporations disseminate the news, the GOP has a better chance of exercising control than when there are twenty or more organizations.
