ConfirmThem

I didn't think I could be surprised by MSM bias on any issue, especially on judicial filibusters, but George Stephanopoulos' comments on Good Morning America a few minutes ago made my jaw drop.

I do not yet have a link to the transcript or video, but the appearance was a triumph of misinformation. He used the Democrats' favorite label of "controversial" to describe Priscilla Owen and Janice Rogers Brown, saying among other things, that Priscilla Owen had denied a young woman an abortion because she did not see her parents. He pulled out the quote from Brown about the New Deal being this country's socialist revolution.

To top off the segment (or should I say, the reading of the Democrat talking points) he declared that what the Republicans are trying to do is to change the way the Senate has operated during its history and to create a huge shift in power. Diane Sawyer repeated his final statement about the shift in power.
