A year after election, Obama is still a superstar

Well, that's good. I thought Obama was a stunning mediocrity with great teeth.

I'll have to get with the program. After all, there's nothing like liberals fawning over other liberals.

Big deal...the empty suits and skirts of MSM love the empty Senator.

[Old Seadog]

[Bogolyubski]

The power of MSM propaganda on display. This man is so completely and utterly depraved that he voted to allow the outright cold-blooded murder of innocents who happened to survive a "procedure" carried out in an abortion "clinic." Yet another little sockpuppet of George Soros.

Illinois has become every bit as blue as Massachusetts. The Republican party here is an utter farce.

[California Patriot]

Shows how stupid and ineffectual some "Republicans" can be.
And yes, "the power of MSM propaganda on display."

[CivilWarguy]

Considering that Obama gets 100% favorable coverage in the Chicago Libune, such poll numbers aren't surprising. It is rare that the Libune goes a day without promoting that man in its news articles.

[Roy Tucker]

Kennedy can afford to be. Bay Staters have repeatedly shown a willingness to keep him in the Senate no matter what. Heck, he could probably get away with murder and they’d still support him.

He did and they do.

[Lancey Howard]

I remember the media swoon over Jim Florio when, as governor of New Jersey, he rammed through a massive tax hike. He got his picture on Newsweek and everything. He was Presidential timber, yes sir.

In the end of course, he was just another scumbag, just like Obama.

After all, there's nothing like liberals fawning over other liberals.

Always giving each other awards of some sort.

While I agree that Obama will likely be a Dem prez candidate in the near future, I've haven't read or seen anything about him that would indicate to me that he's not just another Dick Turban, egg-sucking, liberal prez wannabe. His comments in the wake of Katrina were typically liberally reprehensible. By being a little more circumspect when he speaks, he appears to be a little brighter than Turban...which is not saying much.

[river rat]

It doesn't take much to impress a leftist....
I've known some that got all excited over as stupid old fart like Carter and a traitorous rapist like Clinton...

Semper Fi

Case in point: Noam Chomsky; selected as the worlds Greatest Intellectual...

[Mike Bates]

Illinois voters who cared to think about it could have predicted what Osama Obama would do in Washington by what he did in Springfield, where he:
Voted twice against prohibiting tax dollars for abortions.
Voted against requiring school boards to put pornography filters on school computers.
Voted “present” on legislation preventing porn shops and strip clubs from operating within 1,000 feet of schools or churches.
Voted for a bill requiring sex education for children in kindergarten through fifth grade.

Tribune endorsed Bush.

[CivilWarguy]

The Trib EDITORIAL BOARD still has some vestiges of non-Liberalism. The Tribune national news reporters, their news articles, and their commentators are solidly (almost unanimously) left-wing. One must distinguish between the impact of a once-every-four-years endorsement, and the daily barrage of left-wing slanted news articles and commentary, to see the true impact of a newspaper.

Re Trib:

Point taken. Wall Street Journal another example.
