I'm not being hard on Bulldog, I just pointed out that I was not surprised to see an editorial from The Times that was critical of Obama.

I disagree with the premise that the media is soft on Obama. If anything, they're quite soft on McCain. He hasn't been discussed in the past two months, left to his own to campaign and raise money.

Obama has been hammered for the past few months, Wright, "bitter", "sweetie", flagpins and his wife. How anyone can say the media is giving him a pass is beyond me.

its still the narrative.

with the obama problems the media potrayal is one of "well Kent, is not weaing a flag pin unpatriotic?" "Of course not Brian"

or "should reverend wrights statements impact the view of obama in america? lets discuss" "well brain, of course it shouldnt" "what say you clark?" "of course not, and if anyone lets wright impact their view of Obama, they are terrible humans who must be bigoted republicans"

"thats all the time we have for our discussion....on to other news"




While about McCain.

"so leann, does McCains age affect him in this race?" "of course brain, people have got to wonder if McCains age is a liability. What with alzheimers, other diseases, and his prior cancer, they should be." "there you have it america.....McCains age should matter, think what we tell you to think here on NBC"



those are media narratives. and when every channel except for one all have the same narrative......fucking braindead idiots believe the bullshit.

I think it is pretty obvious who the media is rooting for. They've made it very clear since day one.

Shit, the Eddie Murphy movie where he becomes a congressman, they never mention any political party at all!
The American President, a good movie on the President. He was a Democrat, shown in a good light. Republicans were corrupt bad guys. Wasnt Martin Sheen a Democrat too? Those are the only President movies/shows I can think of. The Republicans were the evil ones in the Day After Tommorow too.

Please revise this post to fit in with reality. If you think Al-Quaeda can successfully invade the United States then you're insulting our troops, our citizens, and the idea of intelligent life on earth. Ideally, you should ban yourself.
