The FEC screwed up. Too bad they weren't willing to hold McCain accountable for his machinations.

What?! The same way they held Obama accountable?

HA.....

Objectivity has been the widespread practice of the American press since the late 1800s. The American Society of Newspaper Editors finally canonized it in 1923, decreeing that news reports should be free from opinion or bias of any kind. From there the importance of objectivity grew until it was irrevocably applied to all reporters and later entire publications. All were expected to give both sides of the story on everything from a school board meeting to an international disaster. Without equal coverage, the press failed in its primary goal: to present the American people with the information and motivation to actively participate in the ever-changing world around them. Citizens needed to make their own decisions, and the press was there to make sure they had all the right information to do it.

They need to look into who is funding Obamacon from the Middle East under the table here as well.

Vote for McCain in 2008, it's a sure thing.
