Eh?

(My main objection with our present day media is their *incompetance* and *lazyness* and *Infotainment focus*... 'bias' is usually quite obvious [everyone has biases], and over-all less harmful then the rest.)

Beware False Prophets.
Check out the latest "talking points" from the Center for American Regress.

Ninety-five percent of the president's judicial nominees have already been approved with bipartisan support-almost all of whom are people of faith. Contrary to the highly disingenuous and manipulative claims out there from right-wing leaders, nearly all of President Bush's nominees have been confirmed-most or all of whom are people of faith-and only a small sliver have been opposed based on their judicial record and temperament.

This is a cute tactic by the Dems to fool the public into thinking that they've been more than fair. What they don't tell you nor do they want you to know is this fact. Of the 52 judges selected for the appellate courts, ten have been filibustered by the Democrats in the Senate. That's the worst percentage rate for any US President. The Democrats have a strategy that is targeting those judges who will threaten their ideas. Appellate judges hear appeals, and have the ability to strike down activist rulings in lower courts. That's why they've targeted them. The Republicans need to stress this fact to the public, and not let the Dems get away with it.
