I have rarely been so quick to react to a statement by a journalist, but it was absolutely unbelievable to witness NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams blatant display of his extreme liberal views in his interview with President Bush after the Virginia Tech shootings this week. After setting up a question by commenting on his own daughter being in college and the President's two daughters having recently graduated, he immediately jumped in with the question: "What can we do about these guns?" This view of guns being an evil force that must be removed from society is so far removed from the mainstream of American politics that Brian Williams should be reprimanded for pushing his extreme personal views, especially at such a sensitive time. What a disgusting display of political spin by a member of the so-called unbiased media.
