Obama love, media style

I apologize for the bluntness, but there's just no other way to describe my reaction to this than to say I wanted to vomit. 

Objective media?  Journalism?  Right.

Well, now, hang on a second. If memory serves, well over half of those clips came before the "Teflon is coming off" articles you've been posting over the last two weeks or so. Some of those even go back to the primaries, where the McCain campaign is quoting Clinton supporters, such as Rendell and McAuliffe; I think it's a different game now, yes?

So, you criticized them for being soft on him, then you said that they were finally getting it right (when "the Teflon came off"), and now you're back to showing us old news?

(laugh) Make up your mind, dude...

The soundtrack is a hysterically funny touch, though; it's a good piece of production work.

Red;

I've been going back-forth all day with Wes who say's there is no favored media treatment for Obama. LOL. Oh well, Wes drinks the cool-aide, faints at the sight of Obama at rallies and has about ten yard signs all with some variation of "Yes We Can" in front of his house.

Actually, Thomas, I don't do yard signs or bumper stickers. I don't think that anyone should be influenced by my choices without knowing the reasons behind those choices.

I'd also point out that the McCain campaign had to go back almost a year to find enough material to produce a 3-minute video, and that isn't counting the two or three quotes they replayed three times for effect. (grin)

I guess you missed the ABC/CBS/NBC Obama Lap Dogs who are with him on his current Rock Star Tour.
