Even today, with Obama and the Democrats numerically dominating Washington, the leftist media portray Limbaugh not as a commentator, but as a clear and present danger who must be curtailed.

A Media Research Center study of ABC, CBS and NBC coverage of Obama's first 100 days finds the networks lavished good press on every major initiative of the early Obama administration, including the massive stimulus package, all of the various bailouts, health care, stem cells, the environment and foreign policy. They never investigated whether Obama was leading America towards socialism and never even once labled his huge government agenda "liberal."
