And Not A Moment Too Soon. NOT!

ith less than three weeks to go in the Bush presidency, AP has finally let ‘er rip, running a blushingly positive portrait of our president, Bush’s Personality Shapes His Legacy by AP White House correspondent Ben Feller.

Feller presents a portrait of a very intelligent president who probes for answers, loves efficiency, reads voraciously (US and world history), and understands and appreciates honor.  Bush’s malapropisms are curtly dismissed with just a paragraph so more time can be given to more significant parts of his character – athleticism, commitment, love of his family, casual likability.

This is the Bush all of us who respect the president have known all along.  If Feller and his compatriots had been writing from this foundation since 2000, the rest of the world would know it as well. So Feller and his press corps bedfellows are not very good fellows at all, are they?

With Obama winning the presidency by seven percent, we can't blame the media. Their laudatory coverage and refusal to extensively probe into Obama's background and [lack of] experience was at best responsible for five percent of his vote, the pundits tell us. Here is a compilation of over 100 significant instances of pro-Obama/anti-McCain bias during the 2008 campaign.
