Today I heard further proof that the media is so bias when it comes to this election. This morning I spoke on the phone with a friend of mine who I don't speak to very often and we had a discussion about the election. He voiced his opinion about not liking either candidate, which I respect very much. When asking him why he did not like John McCain his reasons were that, he was too old, his VP pick should be at home with her kids, and what has he ever done to show he will make a good president.
My friend sounded just like a spokesman for the left wing media. I almost had a heart attack. Now, like I said I respect others opinions but all I ask is that the opinions are based on the facts.
When I asked him what did he even know about Sarah Palin, he said quote, "she has five kids, she's against abortion, one of her kids has mental problems, and she is running around trying to be president". When I heard that I was so apauled. Where did he get that opinion from? Well, I would have to guess from that left wing media. I have never heard someone ask, "How a male politician was going to take care of their children while being the President". Have you? Bill Clinton was never asked, George Bush was never asked and from what I remember no one has ever been asked that.
It just goes to show you how backwards Americans truly are today. England has had women prime ministers. The Phillippines has a women President. India has a women President. But Americans who preach to the world about equality will say things like my friend said today. It's just amazing.
Sarah Palin has been in politics since 1992 until now. Sixteen years she has been serving the state of Alaska as politician. Sarah has served in many different forms of politics, as a city council women, as mayor, she served on the commission of the Oil And Gas Conservation of Alaska as the chairwomen of ethics, and she served as the Governor. To get into these positions she fought people in her own party and fought the corrupt oil companies. Although, when I asked my friend what did he know about her, all he could say was she had five kids. It's very sad, but I blame the left wing media for it.
I sure hope that before this election people will better educate themselves before they cast their votes. As long as people know the facts about each candidate and base their decisions on the facts, then I respect their choice.
