It is fairly common knowledge that the Democratic National Convention is being held this week. After only one night, the media's bias toward the Democrats is already evident. I could not help but notice that the convention ran a half hour over and the media made no effort to call them on that. I noticed that two weeks ago that Republican convention always ended promptly at eleven o'clock. Even if it had run over the media would probably cut it off like they have in previous years.
Their justification probably had something to do with the fact that the president was on. I turned to the station several times over the evening and I must ask, "How long did that pompous windbag go on?" Can't Al Gore control his convention? How will he control his administration if he can't get his convention to end on time? He already doesn't seem to know how they ended up with Chinese money. Just how observant is he? I understand that trees don't have eyes, but that is beside the point.
PBS has provided full coverage of both conventions, but the commercial stations only provided nominal coverage of the Republican Convention, and have already provided more coverage of the Democratic Convention than they did of the Republican. It is obvious from the way that there rarely seems to be a conservative on the panels that discuss both conventions and debates. Who do think they will side with? Of course they have very little bad to say about the democrats. This is evil manipulation of the public by the media to get Democrats into office.
On a slightly different topic, why are people so concerned the Vice-Presidential nominee. The VP does nearly nothing but break ties in the Senate. The only reason that you should for somebody because of their VP would be if you think that the VP will become president in that term. I don't know why people are going to Gore because he found somebody who is stiffer than he is. If you want a conservative in the White House then don't vote for Gore hoping that something will happen to him and Lieberman will become president.
