Some people or groups in both parties are determined to sway public opinion to sympathize with their party. The power of the party has become a significant agenda for many politicians and to them "the end justifies the means".
These people prey on the fact that most Americans don't really follow the news very well. People with family and career obligations don't have the time. Others are just too complacent about our government.
Then there are those who prey on people who are prone to watching only biased news programs that lean towards their own party. This type of media may say anything to raise their ratings by telling only the juicy details of a situation while leaving out half of the facts.
Of course, you can't leave Rush and Ann out. Personally, I think they belong on Comedy Central.

Come on. Get real. Check out John Murtha -- He's a leading Democrat in the US Senate who should be spending his time in jail. Think about Clinton -- a perjurer who was impeached and who lost his license to practice law because he lied under oath. What about Rep Johnson (Democrat) from Louisiana who took brides, is now under investigation?

True that!!
Check this out!
WASHINGTON - The FBI improperly and, in some cases, illegally used the USA Patriot Act to secretly obtain personal information about people in the United States, a Justice Department audit concluded Friday.
And for three years the FBI underreported to Congress how often it forced businesses to turn over the customer data, the audit found.
Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, who oversees the FBI, described the problems cited in the report as unacceptable and left open the possibility of criminal charges. He ordered further investigation.
"Once we get that information, we'll be in a better position to assess what kinds of steps should be taken," Gonzales told reporters following a speech to privacy officials.

Only from the undereducated liberal point of view.
