>Mike, that one is a complete no-brainer. Here's a partial list of topics where it's obvious when many of the major media outlets give a free pass:

>- Iran's actions towards the Iraqis and towards American servicemen in the middle east
>
>- Obama's attempts to use $$$ recouped from TARP for a 2nd stimulus - which would violate FEDERAL LAW
>
>- The stern warning from Moody’s Investor Service about U.S. credit rating (driven measurably by their reaction to Obama's bankruptcy budget and his bank tax proposal)
I love the attention suddenly being paid to these credit rating firms. Like they have any idea what they are talking about.
