Abortion and Bias

Wanna see a nice example of bias? Read any of the Medea's reporting - not commentary, reporting - on why there is a kerfuffle over The Dear Leader visiting Touchdown Jesus. According to media reports, like the one from Time excerpted below, the issue is with Obama giving the address at Notre Dame. That is controversial, yes, but it's not why Catholics and Lifers have gone nuts - it's the awarding of an honoroary degree. 

Note the sarcasm at the beginning of the piece as well. The Vatican, like Notre Dame, has lost credibility on this issue. The Medea has not lost crediblity because it no longer has any. 

At the rate things are going, Pope Benedict XVI may find his next trip to the U.S. dogged by airplanes overhead trailing banners with images of aborted fetuses. O.K., that's a bit of hyperbole. But while several prominent conservative Catholics in this country are apoplectic over the University of Notre Dame's invitation of the pro-choice Barack Obama to give the school's commencement address on May 17, the Vatican has stayed completely silent on the matter.
