Still more media stars admit there is a pervasive pro-McCain double standard in their coverage.
  • Honeymoon's are finite

    The Media will continue with this pattern of fawning and glossing over all of McCain's boners and lies.

    The 527s will tell another story. There is a goldmine of video available, ripe for the picking, of :

    -McCain kissing Bush

    -McCain singing Bomb, bomb Iran (hehheh Jis kiddin' my friends)

    -McCain with his hand down Joe Lieberman's pants (OK, maybe that one will be harder to find)

    -McCain learning for the first time that Iran is Shia as both Lieberman and Graham whisper in his ear at a live press conference

    -McCain touring Bagdhad in a photo-op in his flak jacket with Apache helicopters overhead surrounded by Blackwater guards

    -McCain snickering as a constituent asks, 'How do we beat the bitch?'

    -McCain stating over and over that 'the surge is working, the surge is working!' as 4000 US soldiers lay dead, millions of Iraqis killed, displaced, and maimed.

    -Bush on an aircraft carrier in a codpiece in front of a mission accomplished banner

    Ever more material is available, not necessarily on video but quite well-documented, such as:

    -McCain voted against the Bush tax cuts before he voted for it

    -McCain proudly crowing of his core conservative values as a 'footsoldier in the Reagan Revolution' by seeking to switch parties and sending emissaries to pitch John Kerry to accept McCain as his running-mate in 2004
