I am sorry for being so cynical, but Conservatives have their children liberals use them for stem cell research. People with children want their children to have real values and not just what feels good today. That might explain why children’s magazines have a conservative slant.

Isn't the free press great? Why shouldn't any periodical be able to print whatever they want? There are more elements of the entertainment industry that push their leftist agenda, so what is the problem with a little reciprocal press? Do you really have a problem with getting teens to think about supporting the troops? From what I've heard Howard Dean say, that is still part of the DNC agenda. What is wrong with teenagers reading about a murder that took place, the facts of which involve lesbians and Christians? It is called news, it happened, get over it.
If you want the "rebuplican agenda" taken out of entertainment, let's reach a compromise. I will push for the complete exodus of Republican thought from all forms of entertainment, especially teen magazines, but you have to work as well. You need to get Jon Stewart, Bill Maher, Bradley Whitford, Michael Moore, Babs, Sean Penn, George Clooney, Susan Sarandon, Tim Robbins, Danny Glover, The Dixie Chicks, Dave Mathews... to all stop seeping their leftist agenda into entertainment.
This is great. We have a chance to take the first steps towards bipartisanship in a long time. Let me know if you are up to the task. It will not be easy to purge entertainment of political leanings, but we can do it. I actually feel better about it, my job will be easy. You are the one with the heavy work load, getting all the leftist thought out of entertainment. Good Luck!!!

If I needed to prefer a political get together, I'd mostly opt for Libertarian. For the ones of you who are not conscious of 3rd events, Libertarian is like historical-university Liberalism, and it is all approximately individual freedoms and maintaining the federal government small and out of our individual lives. I've acquired moderate Republican leanings on a few disorders and Democratic leanings on others, however so far as I'm worried, it is the nice components of each events! As a long way as being respectful of humans who're the 'reverse' get together (I think that might be socialist or communist) I am, even though I am unhappy at the within while I pay attention humans performing like they 'have' to opt for a political get together, or that you just need to be a Republican OR a Democrat and there are not any different choices... there may be not anything improper with staying unaffiliated for those who cannot discover a get together you believe.

Supporting the troops? Say it ain't so!
If supporting the troops is a Republican-only issue, then I'm 100% Republican.
As to the article about the lesbiens murdering some "good wholesome Christian grandparents"...well, if the story it true, how on earth is that promoting the Republican agenda?

Put the crack pipe down tardo. Look through the newspapers, magazines, and tv channels. You really want me to believe it has republican undertones? Are you for real. Why is it that every magazine I see, every channel I turn to, and every paper I see is condemning our country. They all stand up for the rights of our enemies and pray for the death of our soldiers. Why is it that they have communist style undertones much like the democratic party? Don't preach what you don't understand. I can pull many, many more examples if needed to make the point.

um no. Because i was reading Cosmo a while ago and they featured Hillary Clinton as Cosmo woman of the month for a number of reasons, including her support of abortion. They are biased towards Democrats, if anything. and have you ever read Mad Magazine? Blantant political bias in a Magazine that's supposed to be just fun. Bias exists everywhere, you can't escape it.

Uh, why should it, kids go to school and learn nothing but the importance of political correctness then go watch movies such as "death of a President", shoudl they be exposed to all the world has to offer, not just the left-wing agenda?

If I were a liberal reading a magazine that normally slants to the liberal perspective, I suppose I too would be bothered by articles that present either neutral or conservative perspectives.

Doesn't bother me and I'm not surprised. Conservatives love being told what is right and what is wrong by the "powers that be", unless of course, the powers that be don't want them to own an uzi.

If comprehending teen material is too tough, try something aimed at adolescents and then work your way up.
