Stop the presses. After an exhaustive investigation, the Washington Post has exclusively learned that "some" conservatives believe that "some" advisers to Barack Obama are too liberal. The newspaper's Web site yesterday included the article, "Obama's Team Rankles the Right: To Some Conservatives, Advisers Are Alarmingly Liberal."
...
It shouldn't be surprising that conservatives would be displeased with the people around Obama. What is surprising is that the newspaper's staff could only find one conservative willing to voice his concerns. How hard were they looking?

Amazing news. Only one conservative thinks that Obama's team has liberals.
Shocked

And a lot of liberals don't think his team and agenda is liberal enough. Go figure. Wink

As an aside...did you notice the rather unflattering (some might say menacing) picture of Obama at the side of the article?

I think I can explain the picture. From the top of the page:
Quote:
“Exposing & Combating Liberal Media Bias”

I'm going to guess that they have a conservative bias.
Wink

Seriously, though, that's why I take everything at that site (and sadly, the Washington Post, the news paper this article was criticizing) with a rather large grain of salt. This one was funny, though.
