But you are correct that the Oklahoman is decidedly right wing. Except when it comes to state races, they nationally cater to the right. Just like the national media is supposed to be objective about the POTUS and Congress, so are the state outlets. But neither are. Although sometimes its refreshing to hear someone actually say something negative about the president(besides in a UN paper, and even if it is all recycled blather). Keep the Oklahoman honest by doing what you are doing. It is a disservice to us all if you or someone else does not. Checks and balances for everybody. And on a totally unrelated side note, here is my new slogan for the good ol' US of A-------Right wing, left wing, we need both of them to fly.

Thought the jab at his pal Hillary intervening over there would clarify that. <br /><br />It's hard not to look like an Obama supporter or a big dopey Yellow-Dog Democrat by writing this blog, in that everything The Oklahoman does is far far right-Republican.Steve Hunthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04356776509950224212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-368722634949985231.post-13559373788635480702009-06-09T08:36:13.155-07:002009-06-09T08:36:13.155-07:00who cares what the oklahoman would have said if Bu...who cares what the oklahoman would have said if Bush did this? Bush is not president anymore. he was a horrible president. Barack is shaping up to be a horrible president. Both merely puppets for the interests of the elite few. Im reminded of an Arrested Developement song, "...different from me, different from you, different from most, in synch with a few." So there it is Steve. Keep giving the Oklahoman hell, but stop defending Obama. You think he cares about us?Derekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11464436509737172798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-368722634949985231.post-6194152235143032762009-06-09T06:37:35.358-07:002009-06-09T06:37:35.358-07:00Thanks for the link.
