John Edwards
As a conservative, I suppose I shouldn't ever be surprised by the media's extreme bias, but I must admit, I still have the capacity to be overwhelmingly shocked, and the John Edwards cover-up is just such an example. What deceptive duplicitous dissembling and overt impious chicanery the mainstream media practices. We all know that, but to see it still unashamedly practiced, Wow!
