Confronting Liberal Media Bias
Healthcare costs (Balancing out the Liberal Media Bias with information not reported on, nor emphasized or just flat out biased that may have a negative effect toward values voters)
Morning Bell: Why Government Can Never Lower Health Care Costs-"According to the Washington Post, the American Association for Homecare alone has contributed $138,490 to members of Congress since 2002. And what do AAH members get for their generosity? The right to charge U.S. taxpayers $1,825 for a hospital bed anyone else can buy online for $754. In 2003, conservatives in Congress tried to put a stop to this madness by passing a law that required the HHS to phase out its fee schedules in favor of competitive bidding. Now that those fee schedules are about to end, Congress is moving to preserving them... If the competitive bidding plan was taken national, it would save $1 billion annually...The better solution for controlling health care costs is consumer-driven health care and the only solution for containing Medicare spending is to change the program from an “entitlement” into insurance."
Gas costs
A Crude Awakening/No Relief in the Pipeline-"Yesterday, House Republicans strengthened their call to begin drilling off the nation's coast in what is believed to be an extremely oil-rich area. Although the drilling would be at least 50 miles away from shore and reap "enough oil to replace Middle East imports for 35 years," Democrats stubbornly refused and deep-sixed the proposal by a 9-6 party-line vote....Of course, the "green" crowd has been lobbying leaders to oppose the drilling and embrace biofuels as the "moral" alternative. They would rather starve the earth's poor of its food supply to make their ethanol than intrude on two miles of animal habitat. Tell me, where is the morality in that?"
