Isn't this the same "news" network that committed fraud against Bush in 2004? The Obama Mania Media never stops.

Found underneath "logical fallacies"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hominem

An ad hominem argument, also known as argumentum ad hominem (Latin: "argument to the man", "argument against the man") consists of replying to an argument or factual claim by attacking or appealing to a characteristic or belief of the person making the argument or claim, rather than by addressing the substance of the argument or producing evidence against the claim. The process of proving or disproving the claim is thereby subverted, and the argumentum ad hominem works to change the subject.



Firstly, I didn't attack you. Secondly, I beg you to prove to me that the media doesn't have a bias against conservatives and McCain.

Pragmatic, this is really the best the GOP could have done in this atmosphere and still remain in the race.

Yeah, I don't waste my time with newspapers, way to slanted to the left.

So where do you get your unslanted news and information?

I read the papers online mostly and I try to drudge through the left wing nonsense.

so EVERY newspaper has a left wing slant? And how does it become less slanted online?


I didn't say it becomes less slanted. Roll Eyes I just said you have to take almost every newspaper with a grain of salt. They've been well known to lie, fudge the truth and misrepresent individuals. I've been through in personally, though indirectly.

Of course I would. But I just saw a clip of Palin being interviewed and she was asked if she pays attention to blogs and negative press. She said clearly, "I don't have much time to waste on stuff like that and I'm glad I don't". I'd probably say the same is true for 90% of all politicians. Do you think Obama watches, to a great extent, any network TV or seriously reads any major papers?

here is the clip in question

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xRkWebP2Q0Y

no mention of 'blogs and negative press'

That's not what I'm talking about at all. Palin did a phone interview with a radio host. I heard it in passing on Hannity tonight. I'll see if I can find it.

well that is really besides the point. Couric asked her if she reads the national newspapers and news mags and she said 'most of them' and then she said 'all of them', but was unable to name a single one she read.

How hard could it have been for her to just say "time" or "newsweek" or "washington post" I mean really. After saying you read 'all of them' it just doesn't look good if you can't name one. This just feeds into the Tina Fey 'can i have a lifeline' stereotype.

Personally I think she was afraid of naming something that the right wing would consider to leftist and couldn't think of something that the right hasn't at some time labeled as biased and so she froze.

Will you hold it against her if she can't name what brand of coffee she likes even if she says she drinks them all? And why isn't Biden being asked about his stupidity?

"You can't go into a Dunkin donuts unless you have a slight indian accent"

If Palin said that you'd have crucified her by now.
