The Media’s Messiah
The main stream media long ago lost any credibility with me. Sadly, there are many today who find their brand of “reporting” right up their ally. And by ally, I do mean all the trash shoved in the dumpsters that stinks to high heaven. Unfortunately, there are many who do not bother to do any “investigating” for themselves, and take whatever the folks at the NY Slimes, etc., as gospel. “Well, gosh, the NYT’s says it, it must be true, right?” Wrong. For those people who never bother to read other sources, watch other news related programing, or drool at the alter of Walter Chronkite, I say……
SNAP OUT OF IT!
Snippets of Mr. Krauthammer’s column, The Ever-Malleable Mr. Obama:
Back then, in the yesteryear of primary season, he thoroughly trashed the North American Free Trade Agreement, pledging to force a renegotiation, take “the hammer” to Canada and Mexico and threaten unilateral abrogation.
Today the hammer is holstered. Obama calls his previous NAFTA rhetoric “overheated” and essentially endorses what one of his senior economic advisers privately told the Canadians: The anti-trade stuff was nothing more than populist posturing.
(…)
Normally, flip-flopping presidential candidates have to worry about the press. Not Obama. After all, this is a press corps that heard his grandiloquent Philadelphia speech — designed to rationalize why “I can no more disown [Jeremiah Wright] than I can disown my white grandmother” — then wiped away a tear and hailed him as the second coming of Abraham Lincoln. Three months later, with Wright disowned, grandma embraced and the great “race speech” now inoperative, not a word of reconsideration is heard from his media acolytes.
If you were shown a picture of B. Hussein, what are the first things that come to your mind? Is it “hope”? Perhaps “change”? Not me. What comes to my mind is the damage that could be done to the Constitution. An arrogant man who has neither the skill, or the experience to even run for so high an office.
Worry about the press? His FISA flip-flop elicited a few grumbles from lefty bloggers, but hardly a murmur from the mainstream press. Remember his pledge to stick to public financing? Now flush with cash, he is the first general-election candidate since Watergate to opt out. Some goo-goo clean-government types chided him, but the mainstream editorialists who for years had been railing against private financing as hopelessly corrupt and corrupting evinced only the mildest of disappointment.
Not only is B. Hussein a hypocrite, but his drooling minions are as well.
Indeed, the New York Times expressed a sympathetic understanding of Obama’s about-face by buying his preposterous claim that it was a preemptive attack on McCain’s 527 independent expenditure groups — notwithstanding the fact that (a) as Politico’s Jonathan Martin notes, “there are no serious anti-Obama 527s in existence nor are there any immediate plans to create such a group” and (b) the only independent ad of any consequence now running in the entire country is an AFSCME-MoveOn.org co-production savaging McCain.
If John McCain had decided to forgo public financing, do you really believe the Slimes would have been so “sympathetic”? Here’s your sign!
And just where are the 527’s that are going to “attack” B. Hussein? I’d like to contribute a few bucks in order to “swift boat” him m’self!
The truth about Obama is uncomplicated. He is just a politician (though of unusual skill and ambition). The man who dared say it plainly is the man who knows Obama all too well. “He does what politicians do,” explained Jeremiah Wright.
Well, that’s an interesting insight from the most racist preacher I’ve ever seen, but he’s right. He does do what politicians do…….he lies, he spins, he promises what he can’t deliver. As for the skill? Take away his cue cards and teleprompters, and what do you have? “Uh….ummm…uh…..”! Ambition? Oh yeah, he’s got plenty. For himself. “Elect me and I’ll screw you anyway that is humanly possible!”
Why, the man even tossed his own grandmother overboard back in Philadelphia — only to haul her back on deck now that her services are needed. Yesterday, granny was the moral equivalent of the raving Reverend Wright. Today, she is a featured prop in Obama’s fuzzy-wuzzy get-to-know-me national TV ad.
Not a flinch. Not a flicker. Not a hint of shame. By the time he’s finished, Obama will have made the Clintons look scrupulous.
And THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is the best reason in the world NOT to cast a vote for Barack Hussein Obama.

Maybe….Maybe Not
You Should Vote for Bob Barr |
 Where you and Bob Barr agree: Abortion - Education - Global Warming - Health Care - Immigration - Taxes Where you and Bob Barr disagree: Cuba - The War in Iraq |
Well, maybe so, but I don’t think it’s going to happen. I reckon it all depends on who McFeingold picks for his running mate.

It’s Not Kool Aid After All!
Ok, in all fairness, they also offer McCain and Clinton cola. But guess who is in the lead!
I inadvertently “voted” for B. Hussein. Pardon me while I throw up a bit!
