The GOP's cheerful viciousness

Yet again, the GOP launches brutal personality and cultural attacks on the Democratic candidate. Yet again, Democrats seem determined to allow it to do so.

O. - Really? No mention of the corporate welfare queen's tar sands oil projects, are there?

What do you think of that?

I mean, a $500 million subsidy for a pipeline for Transcanada - a pipeline that will connect the North Slope Alaska gas fields to the Alberta tar sands project? The most polluting fossil fuel project on the face of the planet?

I guess that's not news.

Could it be "not news" because so many U.S. billionaires (Warren Buffet and Bill Gates among them) are slobbering over the profits to be made from shipping Alberta syncrude to the U.S.?

Why do you think ABC didn't cover that particular story?
