White House Insider: The Media Elected Obama White House Insider (Ulsterman speaks)
newflavor ^ | 11/29/2010 | Ulsterman

Posted on 11/29/2010 3:41:40 PM PST by bilhosty

The first part of our most recent D.C. Insider interview reflects on just how far the media went to protect and promote Barack Obama during the 2008 campaign, including helping secure John McCain as Obama’s Republican opponent.

Using the “Insiders” logic, look for Gingrich to be pushed by the media.

I'm sure that Newt is high on the media's list of "acceptable" Republican nominees. I'll bet that Huck is another one.

We'll know soon enough who they've chosen for us.

Rahm Emanual or Serpent Head....

Who hates Obama more? Rahm swears all the time... maybe they are giving us a clue.... Who is on the outs with Obama and more so Michelle? Who hates Michelle and Val? Michelle and Val are running this thing along with David. Obama is superficial and is all about perceptions. Ie: If we here he plays b-ball with his daughters, we’ll think he’s a cool Dad just like Sarah is a down to earth and relatable Mom. But Obama tries too hard, everything... EVERYTHING with Obama comes of rehearsed and the stench of a random focus group approach. Val is running this show. LOL

Anyone but a democrat will be elected President in 2012, including Sarah Palin. They tried to destroy her, but she is still standing. What if she selects Marco Rubio as her VP candidate.

Yes - to the everlasting horror of the Democrat left, she's grown larger and more deadly to them with every passing month, since 2008. Naturally, the state-run MSM has responded by firing every bit of flak they can at her, to little effect.

Of all the potential candidates for 2012, she is the only one who is free of ruling class taint or tarnish. She is the only one who is self-made, and who has busted her hump all the way up the political ladder on her own steam.

She's also the only one who has taken on the Obama (mis)administration as forcefully, and as consistently as she has. I don't think there's another potential Republican candidate who can lay claim to the same things.

I would hope that Sarah picks someone for her Number Two who's been in the saddle a bit longer than Rubio, even if he might pull some Hispanics across the fence.

For one thing, Rubio just got into the Senate. He's needed there, to help move the Senate to the right (and there's every indication that he will).

Frankly, I'm not thinking about who Sarah should pick for a running mate, just yet. That's too far up the road for me, this early in the game.

They want Huck!

Remember that comedian freak on the Today show - Joy? - anyway, she said Huck is her favorite Republican. I thought no way, when I heard she said that! That woman HATES Christians and triple hates Christian preachers.

They want to push Huck.

Romney would have lost in bigger numbers than McCain.

It is sort of hard to pull off a win when a large segment of your base stays home. As much as the rino Romney nuts do not wish to live in reality...but republicans have a base they need to please.... when fundamentalist Christians can not vote for a person they see as a cultist, when die hard pro-lifers can not vote for a choice guy, when the 2nd amendment crowd stay home etc....

McCain at least had most of the republican base hold their nose and vote for him...Romney could not have pulled that one off and the press knows that.

I will shed no tears and may actually dance a jig if Saudi Arabia were to be hit by a meteorite, a really big one.

It would be comforting to realize that many Americans were to wake up to the truth about them, we are nothing but fools to them.

Its called “Media Malpractice” ...that , along with political and legislative malpractice by supposedly “professional” politicians has put us in the disaster we’re in.

There’s no GOOD reason for any of this.

Ummmm, the reason companies advertise is because it works. And the ads are just the filler between what the MSM reports... Sorry, they had a part in all this...

Nothing new here. Anyone posting here understands exactly what the media’s role was in electing Obama. One of the reason FR came into existence was because of crap like this....

Seriously? You’re seriously still posting Ulsterman stories? Ladies and gentleman, may I repeat, Anthony G. Martin is Ulsterman and his stories are made up. You think a guy living in South Carolina who spends all day re-writing articles from World Net Daily and tweeting to his friends has access to a top level White House Insider? No, he doesn’t.

Here’s my flickr page with screen shots of a long conversation we had on Anthony’s examiner page which he has now deleted: http://www.flickr.com/photos/56316558@N05/

If he had nothing to hide, he wouldn’t have deleted all of my comments and closed comments altogether on most of his articles. Further, the insider series was delayed a week for the first time in a month... coinciding with his attention being taken away by me (and others... some of you, too) exposing him. It’s all so obvious it hurts. All this stuff about being afraid of the Obama administration taking him down and people being out to get him... BS. He’s sitting around on twitter all day and nobody’s doing anything to stop him.

Anyway, I get all riled up about this because my grandfather and father were both journalists and I was raised to believe in telling the truth, and Anthony Martin is the worst case of a phony journalist I’ve ever seen. Thanks to those of you here who have been instrumental in this search for the real Ulsterman and may we all be aware of his fraudulent nature.

Ulsterman and the “Insider” are one in the same: a fraud.

JoeBaron:

I have reviewed all of your “evidence” that Antony G. Martin (AGM) is supposedly Ulsterman.

My conclusion is that you, JoeBaron (a.k.a. Sam Gelfand as author of the “true” story you directed FReepers to) are a concern troll by your own admission in links you yourself invite FReepers to read.

In your “true” story under what you say is your real name you state:

“The point is, the “White House Insider” stories are not politically motivated. Instead, they aim to appeal to the most gullible audience on the World Wide Web, an ever-changing demographic that currently centers on Glenn Beck diehards and members of the so-called “birther” movement. Ultimately, the question is: should we care about this dark and sleazy corner of the internet, and if so, should we do something about it?”

So, JoeBaron, out of your “care” (concern trolling) for supposedly gullible FReepers you have come to FR to save us from ourselves. In the comments to AGM’s blog that you have just directed FReepers to you accuse AGM in your screen-shot #8 of “Hitting on hard right-wingers paranoia at the exact right time...”

First you admit to posting a totally fraudulent story about Ulsterman to generate blog hits. Then you post a “true” story claiming AGM is Ulsterman...but you tell us there is no proof of this, just your supposition that AGM is pimping his blog just as you have admitted doing:

You state:

“There is no “proof” that Ulsterman’s articles are fake, but if you read my article, you’ll understand what I’m saying.”

Then you come back with the totally specious claim that just because AGM tweets that he hasn't done an Ulsterman story (a story covering what UM posted according to AGM) on a particular day in between two “official” Ulsterman posts this is “proof” that AGM is Ulsterman. This is not conclusive proof of anything.

In your screen shots, AGM sheepishly admits with great self-knowledge that he is not bright enough to have created Ulsterman, if indeed UM was a creation. To me this is self-evident. Every AGM post is a review of what UM posted and speculation as to what WHI might be talking about given AGM’s own claimed sources. AGM is far less nuanced than UM and totally derivative in my impression.

AGM, in JoeBaron’s screen shots, accuses “Sam” (JoeBaron) of being a blog pimp, as did another commenter in screenshot #6, and also delusional. I agree with AGM.

Here are JoeBaron’s comments in context:

So my REAL article is here: http://www.tcdailyplanet.net/news/2010/11/20/triond-and-lie-machine

There is no “proof” that Ulsterman’s articles are fake, but if you read my article, you’ll understand what I’m saying. Triond is full of liars, who sit around and try to make up the biggest lie to attract the most readers to make the most money.

I’m just a guy who did the research and is telling you that Ulsterman is BS and there is no insider. And, as some people here have suspected, all signs point to Anthony G. Martin being Ulsterman. It’s just common sense.

Looks like the insider wants to bust the press’ chops a bit.

YOU GO MAN! They deserve it.
