Yet, Philadelphians will passively settle for the status quo in the upcoming mayoral election, as a Democrat will easily coast to victory. I simply don't understand it.<BR/><BR/>If I may refer readers to one of Victor Davis Hanson's columns, as well, one can gain an interesting perspective on the media's portrayal of the situation in Iraq. We hear daily about the numbers of attacks and deaths in Iraq each day--clearly displayed in headlines by the mainstream media--yet we will never see a headline announcing "11 Murders in Philadelphia Over Course of the Weekend." Talk about a double standard. I just wish Our Troops and Iraqi civilians were given the same courtesy.<BR/><BR/>http://www.victorhanson.com/articles/hanson041206.html<BR/><BR/>Thanks again.ReaganConservative86https://www.blogger.com/profile/09833712822230548971noreply@blogger.com
