Talk about betraying your bias, or intentions. The overly large image at right is taken from Salon's initial hit piece on Sen. George Allen. Notice anything funny about it?
Just how much of that large image is relevant to this story? About 1/8 of it perhaps? Certainly not the other photos or, especially, all that text they opted to leave in. Have you read it? I did, as I imagine many did when they first clicked on the story.
Honestly, most people know something about e-publishing today. You would never give so much space or bandwidth to a meaningless image.
The reality is, Salon is out to damage Allen in every way they can. And if their pathetic first story didn't make it obvious enough, the inclusion of all that irrelevant disparaging text certainly did.
The Allen blog re-caps the antics the Dems have been up to try and derail Allen. But this party is far from over in my book. And while I don't know, I doubt the Allen camp needs to post a quarter page graphic to prove they have a play book, too.
This party is over and my money is still on Allen to win.
It's agenda? Salon's a left-leaning publication. Like a lot of others, I'm sure they'd like to see a blowhard, foolish, racist like Allen out of office.
Oh my, they didn't crop a graphic! How devious!

Salon and leftists can't speak to issues because what they stand for - giving terrorists the same rights as American citizens - is yet another loser for them. Besides that they don't have a platform, any ideas etc. so they dredge up some people who are willing to sell their souls for a dime to say he once said the "N" word 20some years ago. If racism really were an issue with them, why are they the only party with a KKK member? Why don't they speak out about Jane Hamsher's photoshopping blackface on Lieberman? Or the throwing of Oreos at Lt. Gov. Michael Steele? They don't because they are the racists. Their party is so pathetic that they have to stoop to new lows - even for them. Well, that's why I left the Democratic party forever.
