I wonder why they are not paying as much attention to the ACLU chief getting seven years for child porn?I wonder, especially, when it involves sexual torture of infants and toddlers....why isn't this getting any coverage?
Larry Craig and Abuse of Power--By the Media
The Larry Craig kerfuffle has led to some interesting reversals. Many have argued that Craig was hypocritical for being gay (though he denies it) and voting for the Defense of Marriage Act which made it so that gay marriage in one state would not have to mean gay marriage in another.

Media Knew of Dem Congressman's Pushy Behavior, Declined to Report It

At least he'd have to if he were a Republican since almost no GOPer could ever get CNN to omit his party affiliation from a news report. Turns out, though, this isn't the first time that Filner has been getting pushy with security staff. That's not exactly a…
