Bias. Liberal bias. Conservative bias. Bias against Bill Clinton. Bias against George W. Bush. Bias colors our world even when we think we are above the it. If you read this blog at all you know that I am a huge Mike Huckabee fan. I have been an ardent supporter since November, 2007. I also listen to talk radio constantly. I have been amazed at the rhetoric coming from the political "pundits" and talk radio "gurus". In fact, it's almost comic to listen to them twist in the wind with each day's poll numbers or debate performance. Justifying every gaffe, restating every spin. Who won last night's CNN debate? If you listen to Michael Medved, who is a McCain supporter, Ron Paul! Yep, that's right. He's claimed Ron Paul came off looking the best. At least Michael tried to be intellectually honest. He admitted that John McCain came off looking less than presidential. More like a squabbling child. John McCain revealed his true colors last night. But, here's where bias comes in. He is so enamored of John McCain that he couldn't bear to admit that Huckabee outperformed his guy. He would rather praise Ron Paul. He couldn't give credit where credit is due. Bias. Every time it turns around and bites you in the rear.
Check out the video, it's so true:
