miller no time

Miller (no) time? The nasty Democrats and their celebrity idols. Shouldn't Kerry and Edwards be ashamed of the sexual innuendos put forth from Whoopie?
Imagine if the converse were true- surely President Bush would quickly reject such humor as inappropriate. Say, for instance, a comedian at a Bush fund raiser said:
Those two cannot keep their hands off each other, can they? ... I think I have a new idea for a new campaign slogan -- use the bumper sticker 'Hey, Get A Room.'


So, did Bush make any immediate rejections of Dennis Miller's remarks (above)? I can't find anything on his website? Curious. Here's Media Matters:
Media Matters for America reviewed FOX News Channel, MSNBC, and CNN primetime coverage of the hours between 5 pm and 11 pm on July 15, and found that the three cables addressed Whoopi Goldberg's remark a total of 19 times: three times on CNN (once on Lou Dobbs Tonight and twice on Anderson Cooper 360), three times on MSNBC (once on Deborah Norville Tonight and twice on Scarborough Country), and 13 times on the FOX News Channel (five times on The Big Story With John Gibson, three times on Special Report with Brit Hume, once on FOX Report with Shepard Smith, twice on The O'Reilly Factor, and twice on Hannity & Colmes).

In contrast, Dennis Miller's comments were addressed only twice: once on MSNBC and once on CNN. FOX News Channel never reported the story.


Well...we all know the celebrities and their sexual jokes are all Democrats. Anything outside the standard storyline is too difficult for the media to explain.
