Latest MSNBC 'Lean Forward' Ad Spikes Football Over Obama Election Victory

It should come as no surprise to most people that MSNBC is a liberal network, but it appears as though they are now actively campaigning for the Democratic Party.  For several years, MSNBC has produced their own ads featuring numerous on-air personalities promoting different liberal causes.

 MSNBC’s latest ad, however, goes well beyond promotion of liberalism and has shifted into outright DNC promotion.  Narrated by ultra-liberal primetime host Rachel Maddow, the commercial is a litany of Democratic “achievements” essentially a mirror-image of the DNC platform.   [See video below page break.  MP3 audio here.] 

"We are not going to have a Supreme Court that will overturn Roe v. Wade.  We’re not going to repeal health reform.  We’re not going to give a 20 percent tax cut to millionaires and billionaires," the female narrator sternly insists. " We are not going to amend the United States Constitution to stop gay people from getting married.  We are not eliminating the Department of Energy.  We are not letting Detroit go bankrupt.  We are not vetoing the Dream Act.  We had the choice to do that, and we said no."

A Web ad by the DNC celebrating President Obama's reelection? No, it's the latest MSNBC "Lean Forward" ad, narrated by anchor Rachel Maddow.  The end of every MSNBC ad ends with slogan, which is remarkably similar to President Obama’s reelection slogan “Forward.” 

You’ve got to give MSNBC credit for finally openly admitting what has been patently obvious this election year: MSNBC is in essence the cable network wing of the Democratic Party.

Pro-abortion, pro ObamaCare, pro tax hikes, pro-gay marriage, anti-public sector union reform, pro Dream Act.

Maybe it's time MSNBC change its acronym to MSDNC.
