The longer the Democratic primary campaign lasted, the more the national press corps acted like they were on Obama's payroll. I'll never forget that day in Shepherdstown, W.Va., right after the North Carolina primary, when this fat, obnoxious CBS reporter more or less told Hillary to quit:
Does her vow to keep fighting, asked one network TV reporter, mean that Clinton will continue her campaign all the way until the vote on the convention floor in Denver?Honestly, who were "those Democrats" whose fears that jerk from CBS was expressing? Him and his liberal buddies on the press bus, that's who.
"I'm staying in this race until there's a nominee, and I obviously am going to work as hard as I can to become that nominee," she answered. "So we will continue to contest these elections and move forward."
The reporter fired back with a follow-up question: "But what do you say to those Democrats who fear that you're putting the Democratic Party's chances at risk by...continuing to stay in?"
Americans should remember this well. If the Obama presidency goes bad wrong -- and does anyone seriously expect it to go well? -- it was the media who elected him. Those biased bastards like that guy from CBS will bear a huge responsibility for the result.

ReplyDeleteNo more than the stupid bastards who voted for Bush in 04 are responsible for the current and dismal state of affairs.
Which is why every time you Conservative ninnies whine about the media you show yourselves for what you are.
That would be a bunch of delusional panty-waist cry-babies. Either you are on the up&up and you get the "blame the media" joke,or you truly buy into what has to be the most asinine rhetorical device ever invented.

ReplyDeleteCertainly not Joe Biden, God love him:
Because I promise you, you all are gonna be sitting here a year from now going, 'Oh my God, why are they there in the polls? Why is the polling so down? Why is this thing so tough?' We're gonna have to make some incredibly tough decisions in the first two years. So I'm asking you now, I'm asking you now, be prepared to stick with us. Remember the faith you had at this point because you're going to have to reinforce us."
Joe is absolutley right. An Obama presidency combined with a Democrat majority in Congress will be a unmitigated disaster.
Even so, I'm with Radley:
Why the Republicans Must Be Defeated This Year.
Anyone (like young 4-eyes up there) who claims there is no media bias in favor of the Democrats is either self-deluded or stuck on stupid.
Speaking of this, who remembers how the New York Times picked us the Maverick earlier this year? How come they don't pull for him now, if they loved him so much that they chose to interfere with republican primaries?
ReplyDeleteIt would be worth looking at whether all the other free press, Washington Post, LA Times and such, didn't follow the same strategy back then. I bet you they're all remote controlled.
