Madison: Assault an Employee OK. Non-Assault? That Gets Headlines!

Althouse notes this:

A Dane County prosecutor says she believes Madison Ald. Brian Solomon sexually assaulted a city employee who is assigned to work with the common council. But the district attorney's office won't bring him to trial only because, it says, getting a unanimous jury to convict would be chancy....  --Althouse quoting Blaska

Althouse doesn't hear an outcry from the Usual Suspects--the Madistan feminazi bunch.

Neither do we.

She contrasts this to the SCREAMING MEEEMIE reax to the Prosser non-assault........

Sum it up this way. Dem, ok. Repub? Evil. See Clinton vs. Thomas, Cain. Although, Cain has screwed the pooch on this story. Add to it the alleged campaign contribution issues, and the man has a lot to answer for if he wants my vote. Clinton was given a pass, even though it was found that he fired a black woman to hire Flowers, who he later had sex with.

Silly Dad. Liberal violence and misogyny are OK. The ends justify the means you know.

Sum it up this way...the leftist media charges the (R)'s are more morally bankrupt, and the rightist media charges the (D)'s are more morally bankrupt. For every "free pass" given to a liberal politician, there's one given to a conservative politician.

It's a waste of energy and a waste of time.


Silly neomom, violence and misogyny are not inherent to one political party. And the right and the left protect their own while pointing fingers at their opponents with "See, you're side is worse than my side" accusations.

It's a waste of energy and a waste of time.

The problem Zero is the "rightest media" is Fox News and talk radio, the "Leftist media" is CNN, NBC, MSNBC, CBS, PBS, ABC, NPR, et. al.

Now do you see the problem?

Yah....we have here, David, a propagandist for the propagandists.

It's so damn complicated.

Why did Karl Rove leak Herb Cain's dirty little secret? And Herb's so clueless he blames the librul media!

David--And I'll raise you the right squawk brigade that dominates radio.

Who frickin' cares! It's NOT complicated. If you and Dad29 want to buy into the propaganda and the radical right that is weaselzippers and jihadwatch--the counter to DailyKos' nonsense--be my guest!

It makes for wonderful entertainment.

The only thing that is "entertaining" is a bunch of idiots being spoon fed their beliefs by a like minded media that is hell bent on making sure that the dems hold power.

Can you look anyone in the eye and say that the Cain comments that "offended" two women has had less coverage than Bill Clinton raping a woman or Edwards fathering a child in an adulterous affair while his wife died of cancer?

How about Perry's speech at a Baptist convention versus Obama's 20 year attendance of a racist church?

How about the Tea Party events versus the Anti-Semitic/child sexual assault/public masturbation/assaulting police officer/ etc.. OWS protests?

Go ahead and keep believing the crap your racist party heads keep spoon feeding you. If you can't see media bias then you are beyond blind, you are willfully ignorant.

Can we say confirmation bias on your part? Good for you!

Again, look in your own back yard!


Both the left-wing and right-wing media have their stories that saturate the airwaves. Both the left-wing and right-wing media have their talking points that they regurgitate. And both the left-wing and right wing media will downplay those stories and talking points from the other side.

It's what they do.

So rather than play the stupid blame game, be the adult and consider the sources and the information being presented as being what they are...biased. Then extract the information that is MOST truthful (that can be verified by a number of sources) and figure out what is your position, rather than be a lemming and a bobble-head doll.


The Cain story is ridiculous. I couldn't care less about what allegedly occurred a number of years ago about his private life. But that is, unfortunately, our modern-day campaigning mantra...anything goes!

For every lefty "story" that besmirches the right, there is a righty "report" that lambastes the left.
It's tit for tat.

Say it with me Zorro... Moral equivalency, rationalization, and projection.

Finally learning, neomom, that radicals from both sides embrace those concepts, and the left-wing media is NO better, no worse, and certainly no different than the right-wing media.

Kudos to you!
