Perhaps the Obama campaign has special targeted messages for all the other listed groups. I guess white men get the generic message.

btc1 Champion Author Lexington Posts:18,049 Points:798,550 Joined:Aug 2006	Message Posted: Nov 21, 2012 3:13:26 PM Ignore btc1 Report Abuse Oh CNS News.. Selective, loppsided news. "About Us Resources Send Tips Donate RSS CNSNews.TV On the Spot On the Scene The Schein OTJ Golden Hookah About Us CNSNews.com was launched on June 16, 1998 as a news source for individuals, news organizations and broadcasters who put a higher premium on balance than spin and seek news that’s ignored or under-reported as a result of media bias by omission. Study after study by the Media Research Center, the parent organization of CNSNews.com, clearly demonstrate a liberal bias in many news outlets – bias by commission and bias by omission – that results in a frequent double-standard in editorial decisions on what constitutes "news." In response to these shortcomings, MRC Chairman L. Brent Bozell III founded CNSNews.com in an effort to provide an alternative news source that would cover stories that are subject to the bias of omission and report on other news subject to bias by commission." Sure, as long as it meets the requirements of the right. Not necessarily truth, just that side. [Edited by: btc1 at 11/21/2012 3:14:16 PM EST]

And who is always complaining that things are about race?
