Bias
This blog caught my attention.
Any time someone goes out of their way to say they are "non-partisan" and "objective" it is a sure sign that they are not. The Filibuster Frist link is a sign of this disconnect with the truth. After reading a few of these posts, I have come to the conclusion that this is a group of people trying very hard to sound objective but failing gloriously.
I am biased. Very. I admit it though. I don't try to act like some enlightened arbiter that takes every situation anew and comes to a judicious conclusion. I am an ideologue. I am going to take the position that maintains the Constitution as originally written. If that means that I am going to be against some popular program that helps a lot of people, so be it. I'm a jerk that way.
