John Kerry flips the bird

Taken literally, I am saying that Kerry and the media are both liberal so they are a little softer on him then they would be to a conservative. Had W flipped off someone who questioned his National Guard service (rightly or wrongly) then I think it would be on the front page of every newspaper and the lead story of every newscast.

lookout123's point about Hillary's off-color joke about Ghandi running a 7-11 is well taken. The comment was very under-reported - Hillary was let completely off the hook. Imagine how the media would have treated Dick Cheney had he said it.

Look what happened to Trent Lott. I realize that he's a complete idiot but he makes a remark about Strom Thurman and gets run out of Washington while certain liberals make racist and or anti-Semitic comments seemingly without being taken to task by the media.

I could be misinterpreting all this but it really does seem to me that the media has two sets of rules.
