- Typical right-wing kvetching. You sound just like all those
- fat-cat right-wingers who don't really understand what
- lower-middle-class people have to go through.
-
- [kvetching about bias deleted...]
-
- Of course it's biased, when it's something you don't like.
- Read what the political left has to say some time (the _genuine_ left,
- like Harel Barzilai and his friends who post on places like
- talk.politics.misc and alt.activism, not someone middle-of-the-road).
- Those folx are _convinced_ that the mainstream news media are biased
- in a rightward direction.
-
- [Liberals are miserable while conservatives are happy...]
-
- A lot of the right-wingers on the net and in the world at
- large sound very smug and hateful. Rush Limbaugh could be dismissed as
- someone's stereotype of a right-winger, except for the fact that he
- really exists. Of course, they feel that their hatreds are justified,
- so they are not likely to notice what they feel.
