I thought this was funny.
Although I do want to point out that the Weather Channel reveals its bias in the name of the channel. Much of the problem of the MSM is that it wants to appear objective but actually isn’t. It would be similar to if the Weather Channel called itself the Sports Network but still reported only the weather.

Will you be changing your blog’s name to “The Obama Watchdog?” More criticism of a president elect of 2 months than of 8 years of an unpopular president.

Technically speaking much of my ‘criticism’ has been mostly about pointing out policy decisions that Obama has made that run against positions taken by readers that supported his candidacy. In this capacity, it’s not fair to claim I personally am taking a position on his policy decisions.
One could say I’m a watchdog for policy consistency in my readers. I would hate to see the reason you argued against positions was based primarily because the president was a republican and not because you had real substantive issues with the policy.
Finally, if you want to talk about excessive criticism, you need look no further than yourself. You have been a big detractor of President Bush. Perhaps you should of created a blog and called it the ‘The Bush Watchdog”. At this point you have been more critical of Bush then I have of Obama, although admittedly, Obama’s presidency is just only beginning and I’m sure I will have plenty of criticisms of it.

Obama hasn’t even been president for a day!!!! I’m waiting for things to actually be done or not be done before judging.
And quite frankly, if you were simply a watchdog, you would have way more than one critical post of Bush in the last 3 months. His policies regarding bailouts are directly opposed to your stated views on government.

I do dislike the bailouts. But i feel like that topic has been heavily overplayed and I’m mostly bored with it. Besides I like to argue contentious things and for the most part all of my readers, both right and left, oppose the bailout.
Get me a poster that favors the bailout and I will bring the wrath.
