Exactly. I distinctly remember Howard "Yipeee!!!!" Dean saying "This is a Republican scandal." Once the facts started to come out the liberals of the mainstream media buried the story QUICK. |

| reply to footballdude No, it died away quickly because it is a scandal which embarrased the Republican party, therefore, it gets buried quickly.
If it had been something embarrasing to Democrats they'd have started one of those un-ending investigations immediately, and we'd still be hearing about it every day. -- "Regulatory capitalism is when companies invest in lawyers, lobbyists, and politicians, instead of plant, people, and customer service." - former FCC Chairman William Kennard (A real FCC Chairman, unlike the current Corporate Spokesperson in the job!) |
