Why do you think the bleeding hearted liberal media kept reminding us that Bush was a C student?

When in fact his opponent, Albert Gore, was also a C student and also an ivy leage grad but went on to fail 5 of 8 classes in grad school? Why did the bleeding hearted liberal media insist over and over that Gore had won Florida when he hadn't, and after 5 total recounts Bush won Florida every time and THIS wasn't reported? Why when Bill Clinton invaded his foreign country to oust his pet peeve dictator, Milosevic, not one bleeding hearted liberal put on their sandals to march for peace, yet when Bush invaded his country to oust HIS pet peeve dictator, the bleeding hearted liberal rage was white hot, every sandal in town was marching, and all the bleeding hearted liberal networks were on board?





No bias? Hardly. What do you think?

Did yo really expect them to go against one of their own? They are going to bash the right any chance they get.
Reply:The part that really makes me chuckle is that Clinton didn't even campaign for Gore and then neither of ther Clintons lifted a finger to help Kerry. So if Bush was a C Student and Gore was a C student, and we know that Bush had higher grades than Kerry, does that mean old Herman-Munster-Head is a D student?





Another laugh-inducing fact is that, with only 16 month left to go before he leaves Office, The Clintons, Gore, Kerry and the rest of the idiots on the left ARE STILL RUNNING AGAINST BUSH.
Reply:Just because it isn't what you want to hear doesn't make it biased.
Reply:Point... Al Gore is not our president.. Bush is.. and the fact that he was a less than great student shows in the way he talks and the way he is leading this country to ruin.... If he could be president then I should be.. I was an A student... I guess i just didn't have the nerve to cheat my way into a presidency!!
Reply:no need to remind us, we see it every day.
Reply:It's over. Deal with it. We have a lot more important issues to contend with at the moment than worrying about something that is 7 years old.
Reply:In my opinion, that is because, unlike Bill Clintion, Bush is an idiot.

Reply:Bush himself admits it. Even that might be grade inflation. I am mindful that his war is not going so well.
Reply:I support conservative ideology - but your argument is flawed in so many ways. First of all, the media didn't remind us of Bush's academics as much as it did his National Guard Service. There is a difference between "mainstream" media and partisan blogs.





The Yuguslavian initiative was positioned as a humanitarian/peace keeping mission. There's no comparison between that and Iraq. (there were plenty of people opposed to that action on both sides of the aisle - many fearing that it would lead to another - larger scale war in Eastern Europe - being the birthplace of WW1)
Reply:i think you're paranoid...didn't the very same media go after Clinton when he was prez
Reply:Bush said he got a "B" in Econ 101 when in fact he got "C-"





Makes him a liar and lying is an impeachable offense.





So when are the cowards in the US House gonna impeach the lying salopard.
Reply:i don't care what his grades were. what i mind is his nat'l guard record. i consider bush and clinton as draft dodgers.
Reply:C stands for Crap, Cruel, Coward, when it comes to the Bush report card.
Reply:I think you are the one who's full of bias with your rant. A perfect example of neocon lies %26amp; hypocrisy.
Reply:The liberal media has exercised a desensitizing campaign for the last several years in pursuit of further misleading the already dumbed down public that the liberal media isn't liberal but that there IS no liberal media. No, the dominant media culture in this country is conservative and is biased toward conservativism, and to think otherwise deserves nothing less than mockery and derision.





I suppose this is why when Hilary writes a book, Hilary is on every network. When Kerry writes a book, Kerry is on every network. When Albert Gore writes a book, Albert Gore is on every network. When hayseed Jimmy Carter writes a book, hayseed Jimmy Carter is on every network. Yet, when Rush Limbaugh, Pat Buchanan, O'Reilly, Sean Hannah or any number of conservatives write a book, they are at most on Fox and nowhere else.





Bias? Ha! No bias in THIS country's media...and if there were, they'd tell you!
Reply:Politicians and media just do that. It's simple. They just attack their opponents by any means necessary. It's nothing personal and you shouldn't take it as such. Neocon media do just the same every single day.
Reply:Didn't Bush get to stay in the white house for 8 years?


I never heard that said about him and I can tell you a lot of other things I did hear were a lot worse than that.


You keep gripeing about clinton get over it.


Bush kills a small country every day and no one says anything what more do you want?
Reply:The mainstream media hates Bush. They want to spread anything that is perceived as a negative.
Reply:Well, I say that ones grades doesn't represent how good of a leader you are. I mean, what grades did Julius Caesar get as a boy?
Reply:Because they want to keep telling the people how much smarter they are and how stupid our current leadership is. They don't need to tell us the latter but not even I'm stupid enough to believe they our smarter, just more socialist.
Reply:Where are you still hearing about this? I haven't heard this come up in the media for some time.





To answer your question: The media is a business. No more no less. As such they will report what sells. If they keep talking about Bush's grades, then it must mean that people want to hear about it. Otherwise people would change the channel or turn the page and the media would go out of business.
