Media?
People must stop saying the phrase: "The Liberal Media". I agree some or perhaps the majority of the media are liberally biased, it is obvious in many cases, but by no means is the corpus of newspapers, television and internet news media all liberal. It is absurd to state it.

Obama?
I've heard a new sentiment recently: "Black or White, Change we can believe in or same old story, Obama is just another rich guy buying his way into the white house".
Interesting sentiment.

Rape victims, Sarah Palin and Barack Obama
So I am curious, all those people out there who are attacking Palin on this Rape Kit issue, do they know that Obama is in the same boat as Palin?
"Knecht says she's recently heard from caseworkers in Illinois, Georgia, and Arkansas reporting that rape victims continue to be charged for their forensic exams."
Well... I suppose Obama wants Rape Victims to pay for their Rape Kits too...
Please research before you form an opinion.
"When Sarah Palin was mayor of Wasilla, the city billed sexual assault victims and their insurance companies for the cost of rape kits and forensic examinations.
Palin had been in office for four years when the practice of charging rape victims got the attention of state lawmakers in 2000, who passed a bill to stop the practice.
The bill passed the Legislature over the objections of Wasilla police chief Charlie Fannon, who said it would require the city to come up with more money to cover the costs of buying the rape kits and doing the exams."
So Sarah Palin inherited a problem of the police department having such a low budget that they were forced to charge for rape kits, and some how this makes her in support of charging for rape kits? Lets review how this practice got stopped... The state legislature had to pass a bill to stop it... The police department started this practice long before Palin came into the office of Mayor, and the state legislature's request for the police to stop this practice didn't stop it... Only a state law protecting rape victims stopped it.
Oh and everyone should know that there are many police departments throughout the country who STILL practice this, as stated above, some of those departments are in Illinois, Obama's old stomping ground.
Think, research, learn.
