The Liberals and the Liberal media learned a long time ago what Hitler always said. Tell a big lie and tell it often enough and people will believe it.

They did it with Senator Joe McCarthy, they did it with Richard Nixon, they did it with Ronald Reagan, they did it with Dan Quayle, and they are trying to do it with George Bush II.

They even do it in reverse. They kept saying that Monica Lewinski and Clinton's sexual predation was just a personal sexual matter. They said it over and over again and people eventually believed it.

The conservatives have learned how powerful a tool the media can be by their use of talk radio, the Internet and Fox News. What I can't understand is WHY there are no major conservative national newspapers to challenge the likes of the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, the Washington Post, etc. etc.

If I ever became a billionaire, the first thing I'd do is start a conservative newspaper. The NEXT thing I'd do is start a University for middle income and low income kids with brains that taught history and politics from a conservative perspective.

The Wall Street Journal's Editorial page is conservative and widely read. The NYTimes has such power, not for its circulation numbers, but because it sets the tone for the network evening news broadcasts.

In the UK the daiy papers openly take sides, so readers can openly read the view they prefer. I guess talk radio and the internet will have to do for us at present.
