If you can tell me with a straight face that the media treated Palin the same as Biden

Palin made a fool of herself. She didn't need any help from the media.

Bearcat;

Of course they didn't treat them the same - because they were different. Palin is a fruitcake. Biden has been reelected over and over again. His family values put Palins to shame.

. I believe one philosophy is wrong and you believe the other is wrong.

I believe - if you have been honest with me - that we are close to the same on philosophy. Where we differ is you want to blame the media for the crap politicians on the right have been pulling whereas I want to blame the man. Ever since I voted for Reagan (one time), I've been wanting to find a republican who walks the talk. They have all been miserable disastours - especially Bush. The only one who has even hinted at controlling the budget is Clinton.

I keep remembering being told here that Biden was a respected member of the Senate - lol - so was Ted Kennedy!

Of course Kennedy was. By the general admission of the present sitting senators. He was the most admired. Period. McCain says that; Hatch says that; the list is long.

You're still working a dichotomy, Bob, folk who disagree with you politically must somehow be bad. You'll never understand politics very well from that starting point.
