The headlines this week said the Democrats are split, in disarray, because there was a battle over who would take the second spot in the House behind Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Yet, the same headlines claimed the Republicans were being united by their leadership decisions.
Huh? Do I smell the stentch of bias here?
Look at the facts. Pelosi was unanimously elected to lead the Democrats in the House. On the Republican side, there was a failed push to remove John Boehner as their new leader, to replace Dennis Hastert. Both men were tainted due to the Mark Foley sex scandal and subsequent fallout. There were 28 votes against Boehner's leadership among the caucus. Gee, that doesn't look like unity to me. Roy Blunt had 57 votes against him for the number two spot. Does that look like unity?
Then move over to the Senate, where Trent Lott makes a comeback as minority whip after being ousted for his Strom Thurmond comments. He won the position by one vote. Does that sound like unity to you?
How much more blantantly biased can you get?
Your supposedly liberal media at work.
