They’ve been fooled by a media that is invested in socialism.
When you talk to Obama voters, they are one of several things:
1) Very young and inexperienced in the ways of the world
2) Totally misinformed (I spoke to one the other day who absolutely INSISTED oil companies pay NO taxes. None.
3) Ignorant of basic economics (public school incompetence) - and usually these have terrible financial circumstances they think Obama will help them with.
4) Black (voting their race)
5) Women who are terrified of life and want to be taken care of by a tall man who tells them “hope”
6) Committed liberals who are convinced if we only tax the rich to death and make them share all their illgotten gains, the world really WILL be a better place.
As far as I am concerned, only the people in 6)have any real right to vote for the guy.
Looks like he had his nose and mouth stuck in the honey jar.
Creepy, He looks like the movie poster of Hannibal Lecter.
Bad picture.
TIME MAG PUTS OBAMA ON COVER — FOR 7TH TIME IN A YEAR! [DRUDGE REPORT]......
And for the seventh time....so what?
Having said that, there's no doubt they'll have only praise and glory on this issue (and some hint of buyers remose), and 'real stories' full of inuendo about scandals, marital affairs, etc for next week.
They used to say that jinxed a person. Hope it still does.
At one point, about forty years ago, TIME was more conservative. But starting in the seventies the magazine, due to affirmation action, started hiring a lot more minorities and women who were and are more liberal on average than white males. Newsweek was pretty liberal even then, so you had somewhat of a choice before the seventies. But the days when the conservative Luce family ran TIME have changed. Now it's definitely a Newsweek twin.
Why don’t they just put his pictures on all copies of the magazine and toss fairness to the wind. for the next few weeks its going to be All Obama, all the time in the MSM. This is the Liberal media’s last chance to pull their boy back into the front of the polls. I believe they are doomed because he has no redeeming qualities. Even Bill Clinton has a charing snake oil salesman personality, and Hillary has a gritty directness and Evita-like drive. Obama has a gift for reading a teleprompter and a dark skin. Unfortunately he is an Ivy league arrogance and a long winded speaking style that is hard to stand. I couldn’t listen to him for four years. I could put up with Hillary’s cackle (she doesn’t laugh that much) but not his stumbling speech patters.
“Look in my eyes, what do you see? A cult of personality. I exploit you, yet you love me, a cult of personality.”
Time’s fawning over Obama is disgraceful. Not WRIGHT for America (www.notwrightforamerica.com) has a great post on how they should just change their name from Time Magazine to Obama Magazine, and they even have a mock up of what the new Time, er Obama Magazine would look like.
