Apparently the media doesn't care that Mittens was a homophobic bully who (with the help of other bullies) held somebody down and shaved their head because he didn't like that the guy went to the beat of his own drum rather than conform to Mitten's standards. Apparently the media also thinks it was okay that Mittens used to dress up like a police officer and pull people over as one of his 'light hearted antics'--isn't' that against the law? Just think about the media uproar if it had been President Obama who had done either of those types of things.
But boy, when President Obama voices a factual opinion that the private sector is doing much better than the public sector because of states making all kinds of cuts we have day after day on 'Obama's gaffe'.
The media is pretty useless--well not to republicans--they are in the GOP back pocket.

Money talks louder than anything else, including the truth, apparently! Here's the link -http://www.scribd.com/doc/96595192/Sorry-Excuse-for-News
