Though the Repub... sorry, Democratic party convinced 17 members of the Imper... sorry, Republican party to cross the aisle on the Non-Binding Resolution, and it was carried in the Associated Press as a "hotly contested" vote, so the bias in media is, at least, familiar.


I've been accused of being a Marxist, yet while Harpo's my favourite, it's Groucho I'm always quoting. Odd, that.
