Hey Neo, you know what has been very interesting to watch regarding the announcement of VP's? Take a look at the classy way in which Republicans spoke of Senator Lieberman after his selection, contrasted with the hypocritical negative way Al Gore and his followers spun the selection of Cheney.

Additionally, look at the way in which the media went on a feeding frenzy analyzing every vote Cheney cast vs the almost complete absence of interrogation regarding Lieberman's past voting record.

Another media stand out bias was the way Lieberman was immediately and completely labelled as a "moderate Democrat" vs the "far right conservative" label they painted on Cheney.

I guess if Lieberman is regarded as a "moderate Democrat", then Al Gore should be labelled a "Far left wing liberal". After all, when you examine their positions Lieberman is closer to Bush on most issues than Gore.
