The media really doesn't ca

The media really doesn't care, so long as it's a liberal democratic.


Give a Democrat Party free America a chance!

I see the media giving Obama

I see the media giving Obama the same kind of launching pad they gave Bill Clinton. But I don't think he'll make it, he has virtually no experience. That will make him unelectable, IMHO.

Barack Obama and the presidency

Barack HUSSEIN Obama is an apostate Muslim.  He was educated in madrassas in Hawaii and Indonesia from an early age, up until high school.

He attended Columbia University where he majored in political science then worked for Business International for a year and then was a community organizer at a Chicago housing project.  It was during his time spent there that Obama joined the Trinity United Church of Christ.

That makes Obama a Muslim for over twenty years.

His natural father and namesake, was a Kenyan Muslim associated with one of the most corrupt and violent organizations in Africa, the Mau Mau of the Kenyatta regime.  He divorced Barack's mother when Barack was two years old, according to Moslem law.

When his mother divorced her second Muslim husband, an Indonesion, she and Barack left Indonesia and returned to Hawaii.

In his 1995 memoir, "Dreams from My Father," Obama admits to using marijuana and cocaine.  At one time he ran his credit cards up so high that the credit card company denied him access to further use of his card.

He opposes the death penalty and school vouchers, supports racial preferences, gun control, and the right to partial-birth abortions

America will never elect an uber-liberal, apostate Muslim and self-admitted drug user to the Office of the President of the United States.

Political hacks like you are

Political hacks like you are getting very personal, very early and very often. You people will rip Barack any way you can because he's so smart. You will stoop to any depth to spew your venom, to stab, stab, stab away at the man, the human being, the intellect that is Obama. You are frightened of him.  Conservatives will  pick on his clothes. They pick on his ethnic name. They compare him to ruthless dictators and Iranian leaders. And Big Fat Idiot Limbaugh dares to talk about ears? Geeze!!!!!!

Joe--I won't and many conserv

Joe--I won't and many conservatives won't--instead we'll point out where he stands on the issues.  Fair enough?  Many liberals do the same thing and you have to know it--how did they treat Kathrine Harris?  I remember. 

Liberalism is a convenient lie.

I assume you are being sarcastic, Joe.

I assume you are being sarcastic, Joe.

Osama (er Obama) is in the political world.  As we all know from Michael J. Fox, one can enter the political world as a victim and sometimes pull it off but this maroon wants to be the President of the United States of America.  Not.

Aside from the silliness of picking on his ears, he started this whole thing by seeking out The Dowd and 'putting her on notice.'

"I want to put you on notice..." said Barack.

Now, what kind of statement is that?  If another politician has said that they would be accused of creating a chilling effect on the freedom of the press.  Right?  Over his ears he's going to put someone as brilliant and clever as The Dowd on notice (of the NYT - another clever rag from the capital of clever).

The issue isn't his ears.  The issue is his ability to deal with any personal criticism or comment without pushing the Nuke button.  Remember, teased children tend to act out violently.

I don't care about his ears.  I care about what is between the ears.  He has done nothing exciting.  He has articulated no ideas.  He supports every liberal cause in the book and sounds more like our best friend on this site, Dennis K., than a rational human being when pressed for a track record of inept Senate experience of gosh, all of two years?

This Barack guy is a shallow shell of all the Liberal dreams of a Kennedy and a Clinton rolled into one loveable package...

except he hates people who comment on his ears (shades of Ross Perot?) and 'puts them on notice'.

Maybe embryonic stem cell research will cure that one.

What are Obama's policy propo

What are Obama's policy proposals?

Does he have any specfic policy proposals? If so, are they conservative?

They are not, correct? So do you expect conservatives to defend Obama, to support his candidacy, to want him to be our next president? Of course not.

And why are we conservatives amused about all of this? It is because the mainstream media fawns over Obama, treating him like a rock star without offering a genuine critique of the things he stands for.

The supposedly nonpartisan media should present an objective portrayal of Obama and his policy agenda (if he has one), not an endless overload of orgasmic puff pieces.

What does Obama offer? Hope?
Hope is not a policy agenda.

Joe,

Would you mind getting your facts straight prior to posting?  Rush talked about his ears because Mareen O'Doud wrote about them first.  Rush mentioned the conservation that Barack had with Mareen.  You sir, are an idiot, if you think for one moment we are afraid of Obama.  I mean, get real.  This guy has been in the Senate for all of two years and he has the qualifications to be President?  If you were to go into a job interview with as little comparative experience as Barack has, do you honestly think you'd get the job?

They want Hitlery with Osamab

They want Hitlery with Osamabama as the veep.  They get a woman, and a minority, both of whom are ultra-libs.

I notice a name missing on the vote list ...Bin Laden?

MSM: Large and IN CHARGE!

They want the MEDIA to win! As long as the victor is a card-carrying liberal suckup to the status quo, it's a free ride!

Just as long as the new Prez doesn't forget who's actually doing the driving...

Rudy?

The media (the MsM to be specific though the MsM doesn't qualify as all the media just the domineering mouthpiece) doesn't want Rudy, it is just that right now there is little justification for attacking him, but with certainty if he announces his candidacy they will pounce. As for me...RUDY RUDY RUDY...he is the right man at the right time.

If you claim to be a conservative, please don't disgrace yourself and conservatism by thinking and arguing like a liberal.

My question is who are the th

My question is who are the thirteen people who clicked on Giuliani? Did they misread the question or did their cursor slip? If not, what in their experience led them to think the MSM wants Giuliani as president?

The dogs bark, but the caravan moves on.

more in your face candidate

Osama Obama is more of the in-your-face candidate; has more shock value; has more potential to turn America into a socialist state.  Hillary is just a stale reminder of what liberal dims once were.

I picked ">Osama Obam

I picked Osama Obama...for now..the msm will most likely back Shrillary after she has him either under her wing or discarded....

The better question is who the media DOESN'T want to win in '08. They like "center-right" (McCain) and "center-left" (Obama, Clinton) candidates, and wouldn't really mind to see any of these three win.

They detest the idea of a real conservative winning, and their primary objective will be to stymie conservative success in '08.

got file's

watch hillary, Take this guy out to the "Park", she's still got more Files hidden away for that rain'ie day, so when barack's not expecting it "ouch",,remember she taught the slick will'ie a few things, but not everything, plus she's "IS" still the "one" who wears the pant-suit's in that fun house...

More MSM Obama Hypocracy

Harken back to the election coverage of  Tennessee where an evil TN Republican TV spot had a good-looking blond white girl asking the black nominee to give her a call.  Do you remember all of the outrage drummed up by the MSM at the use of such a racist commercial?  My point?  Have you seen all of the female MSM news people gushing over the "exotic good looks", etc., etc., intimating that he could give them a call if he wanted to?  Now why hasn't anyone in management  told them that they shouldn't be asking Obama out and signing them up for re-education? 

Obama's the best thing to hap

Obama's the best thing to happen to Hillary in a very long time....he makes it almost impossible for any other democrat to get traction to challange Hillary.   He is nothing but a "flash in the pan".   When she gets started , he will fade away.   Next Dec people will be saying "Obama who??"               .....Political correctness when dealing with  Islam will kill america....ww .....

ww,

I saw a clip earlier on Fox (H&C)....Dick Morris basically said the same thing...that B. Hussein Obama is "sucking the oxygen" from the rest of the dem competition for the nomination.

Funnier, though, Dick Morris he said he'd leave the U.S. if Hillary was elected.  Howls from Alan Colmes.  Anne Coulter was the follow on guest.  It was pretty amusing.

Blonde..Where I live I can't

Blonde..Where I live I can't get  FOX News , only cnn , bsnbc ,   and that kind of lib bs.    I hardly ever watch national news unless I know the President is speaking. When I was a boy growing up,  my dad always had my brothers and I come into the living room anytime the President was on the   radio   .    I never saw a TV set untill I was a Jr  in high school.         I keep asking the management  where I live now to turn on Fox news , but HE don't like it....     .....Political correctness when dealing with  Islam will kill america....ww .....    

thumper

what you don't like unfair or imbalanced reporting ,you must be from the Boston area,"heavly filtered" news services, they don't want to frighten the public, "The birth place of "FREE" speech" plus not all FOX(25) affiliate's give "Fair & Balanced" reporting, up here the D.N.C. run the morn'n side SHOW.
