I didn't mean to imply that you have ever called it that.

I have seen other people talk about it though, and that's about all I ever comment on. There is bias everywhere, and as far as I'm concerned it's a natural part of life, and I'm not very worried about it. I like to try to spot as much as I can, but I don't think anyone can see 100% of it. We're just too human to be able to do that.

I remember Hillary saying that. I am sure there were small conspiracies to get Clinton- wasn't Rove involved in one of those? But the media certainly was just doing its thing- and what it does is feed on interesting high appeal stories, on people who are in power.

He was indeed being harassed, even hounded, by right-wingers, but it boggles my mind how she can call a political party a "conspiracy," as if people who think the same way she does are OK, but people who think differently are evil.

It all depends on how you define conspiracy, but if they are giving jobs to, collecting or raising money and giving it to individuals or groups that they are aware of their primary agenda, it may not require written agreement, wink, nod, or secret handshake to call it a conspiracy.
