Once again, my theory on the media is playing out in the health care debate.

Basically it goes like this, despite my belief that much of the media is biased toward liberal politics; at their core, most journalists are carnivores, and when raw meat is involved, they will take the meat.  In fact they will do all they can to destroy it.

Such is the case with the media’s seeming love affair with Barack Obama.  They want to believe him.  They want to adulate him.  However, they are beginning to smell blood on this health care thing, and their animal instincts are kicking in.

Right now, the various versions of the Senate and House health care reform bills are being bludgeoned as the result of some level headed politics, a great deal of public out cry, and probably some pretty disgusting lobbying efforts.  As ugly as what is going on, it is what makes our system of government special.  But that’s not the point here.

Let’s watch this thing over the next few weeks and months and see how the media reacts as this pig goes through the sausage grinder.
