On Monday’s CBS "Early Show," correspondent Jeff Glor did a report on "five things you should know about John McCain" and highlighted details such as: "Number four, a maverick even back in high school, John McCain was nicknamed ‘the punk’...A reputation that followed him to the naval academy." During the segment, USA Today columnist Walter Shapiro added: "John McCain graduated five slots from the bottom of the Annapolis class of 1958."
Contrast those bits of information with the hard-hitting facts revealed about Barack Obama during a similar segment on last Wednesday’s show: "Number four -- in addition to enjoying basketball and cycling during down time, Obama loves to play Scrabble...Obama's job as a teenager was at a Baskin Robbins and to this day he does not like ice cream." The segment on Obama also described how he and Michelle met and where he buys his suits.
Meanwhile, on Monday’s show, Glor also focused on McCain being born in Panama: "Number five, McCain was not born in any of the 50 United States...His father had been stationed there by the Navy, creating an eventual source of controversy." Shapiro added: "The Constitution says a president has to be a natural born citizen." Glor also questioned McCain’s skill as a pilot: "Number three, when McCain was not down in Vietnam, it was not his first. It was not his second. But his third plane crash as a pilot." Finally, Glor got to number one: "...when he first ran for Congress he was charged with being a carpet bagger."
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
No surprise that the Communist Broadcasting System is in the tank for Marxist Obama.
Heard this covered on Medved’s show..he said over and over...this is NOT a parody of CBS bias...this is what really was said!
Who would you follow...
A guy who continued to get back into jet fighters (Attack) even after he had two crashes and fly combat missions
or
A guy who has never served his country or put his own life (or the life of his sons) on the line for ANYTHING?
The funny part of this quite predictable coverage is that Mclame thought his “buddies” in the press would treat him differently than they normally treat republicans.
See=B.S. = dnc. Enough said?
the accessment is partial true except for the obama softball.
The obligatory piece from the MSM on the Dem candidate being a genius and the Republican candidate being a dolt.
You’re right about that. This is pretty mild compared to what’s coming, you watch. The media wants the Obamamessiah to be President so bad they can taste it, and they’re going to do anything and everything to see that he gets into office.
And has been spoonfed throughout his adult life.
And with an obnoxious wife who’s had the same treatment.
Jeff Glor did a report.....
Sorry...It was not a report. It was a left wing whack asshat named Glor doing an obvious hatchet job on McCain as required by C BS’s socialist agenda! Let’s get the facts straight....A report it was not!
Meanwhile we hear of Obama fondness for Scrabble, but nothing of his fondness for the Weather Underground and Tony Rezko.
Absolutely despicable...
