Consider John Edwards, the Democrat who was running for President on a morality and decency platform - the guy who trotted out his cancer riddden wife as a shining example of what a loyal and supportive husband he was. He's caught ina love nest with a news reporter girl friend who recently had his "love child" and he denies, denies, denies. He finally lets little bits of the truth dribble out there - all the while denying the love child although everyone knows it's his.
And where is the MSM furor over his duplicity. No where - the LA Times still won't print a thing about it and when the NY times finally got around to it, it was on page 3. Meanwhile, the network news and CNN barely said a word about it until it couldn't be ignored.
Recently, some criminal hacked into Sarah Palins private email account and potsts it for all to see and the MSM focuses on whether she was illegally discussing government afairs on a private account - there's barely a word about the criminal act the hacker performed.
And you ask "Can A Republican ever admit to being wrong"
Why not correct your statement to read the facts: "Can A Republican ever admit to being wrong without the MSM trying to crucify him for it?"
Only liberals are naive enough to think the POTUS micro manages the economy, or controls the world wide price for oil.
Conservatives think government needs to generally stay out of the way, certainly not take tax dollars out of the economy, don't try to micro manage and don't over regulate. There will always be hiccups, grown ups see through them, adolescents bury their heads in their asses and seek "Presidential Guidance" as they point fingers and proclaim the next end of the world.
Even when liberal lending policies (regulations) implemented by Carter and expanded by Clinton, under the threat of repercussions, were the root of the modern day mortgage crisis, liberals point fingers at Republicans.
Even when Republicans recognized this looming problem in 2005, when the Democrats shot down their proposals and offered none of their own, liberals point fingers at Republicans.
Even when a Clinton appointee was run out of town for mismanaging Freddie Mac, liberals point fingers at Republicans.
Find a clue someday, you'll feel a whole lot better about yourself.

Hehehe, I was thinking the same thing. Stupidity is being taken to a whole new level, from both sides of the aisle. Of course, the lefties and moonbats still win that race, hands down.
Willie, you talk a great game. The problem is the republican party hasnt practiced any true type of conservatism since Reagan was in office. We basically have one liberal party fighting the other. I would even go so far as to say Obama is a truer conserve than Bush or McCain.Only liberals are naive enough to think the POTUS micro manages the economy, or controls the world wide price for oil.

Rob, you are correct, Republicans have not acted like fiscal conservatives since Newt resigned. Although Bush got it half right with his tax cuts.
However, Obama is a liberal's liberal. There is nothing in Obama's history to suggest anything other than he's a hard core liberal.
One of the few things I've heard him say that I like is that there are too many single parent families, and the father has to be there for the kids.
Based on his history and the history of the Democratic party, I don't believe he'll initiate a broad based tax cut at all. I believe he's more inclined to increase taxes. If he wins, this will be a very interesting issue for me.
