And speaking of Tim Eyman (see the immediately preceding post), have you noticed the magnitude of the media's bias against Eyman? Take, for example, the front page of yesterday's Seattle Post-Intelligencer. Shameful.
Posted by Stefan Sharkansky at June 17, 2004 12:51 PMI had a friend of mine going off about Eyman. I asked her why. Well, it was because of all those initiatives he passed, cutting funding ... etc.
I asked her how many initiatives he passed. She said five, maybe six.
I asked again how many initiatives Tim Eyman passed. Four?
She finally got it on the third time. None.
It's not just the bias against Eyman; it's an on-going condescending attitude by the Puget Sound press that the voters are too stupid to know any better.
