The drive by media expresses its far left wing bias in a most direct way when it repeats verbatim the Democrat party's daily talking points. No matter how many lies or felonies the Prevaricator in Chief committed while in office, the liberal press gave him a pass or made flimsy excuses, “it's only about sex and we all lie”. Whereas, Bush gets blamed for things he can't control, namely natural disasters and the actions of foreign leaders. Has anyone bothered to count the number of retractions printed by the NYT on an annual basis and how many reporters and editors have been fired for deliberately falsifying stories?

With Mars also warming up, we will likely get credit for that as well.

It depends largely on the woman's character and experience, and Hillary lacks both.

No.

Yes.

All the perpetrators spoke Arabic, most came from Saudi Arabia, they worshiped Allah and they despised western values. If facts matter, the answer is obvious.
