Joe Klein of Time Magazine has give Barack Obama eight (8) covers. The Liberal bias is insanity. No wonder they are all failing as businesses.
Maggots, pure and simple.

With the liberal media losing readers, viewers, and revenues, I;m starting to believe that they want to go out with a flourish(i.e their attacks against McCain/Palin) and promoting Obama.

Clue to these so called journalists, Left wing commie crap does not sell..here is the proof
Stats from
The Short Squeeze Website

From their paper
New York Times Co. Reports an Earnings Decline of 51%
The New York Times Company reported a 51.4 percent decline in third-quarter profit on Thursday and swung to a loss on continuing operations as deeper-than-expected expense cuts could not keep pace with falling revenue.
The company said it might cut its dividend and planned to write down the value of assets in its New England Media Group, which includes The Boston Globe, by as much as $150 million.
It is official the NYT is now at junk status. The shorts are taking their time crushing this stock. Will be interesting to see who picks it up if anyone...Perhaps Murdock

This is actually a positive development and a major tactical error by the media-industrial complex.
Democrat voters worship the media and quite a few are only marginally likely to vote in the first place, especially among the young and recently ACORNed: Many will see the election as a foregone conclusion and won’t bother to vote at all.

They say Republicans have gone downscale as a party and left the upper crust WASP model and settled into the lower-end of society...basically they say that traditional Republicans economically have turned to being Democrats.
Well, that means (if these guys are right, and they may not be) the Yacht Club has given up and gone over to their Marxist enemies. Who'd have thunk it?
Some of the crusterati have certainly given up on paleoconservative principled opposition to statism -- Christopher Buckley among them, like Alcibiades, the roue' son of Pericles, who went over to the Spartans and betrayed 10,000 of his fellow-citizens, with whose command he had been entrusted before his entirely self-induced disgrace and fall, to a degrading and pitiful death in battle and in slavery beneath the citadel of Syracuse.
But the sneers of Charlie Rose's guests for the new, "downscale" leadership of the "residue" of the GOP, are precisely like those of the Four Hundred before their overthrow by the Progressive Movement. Sarah Palin and her successors will teach these guys humility, just as Ronald Reagan did before her.
People like David Brooks, Peggy Noonan, and Charlie's guests confuse articulation and the possession of an elite education with principles, and make the mistake of despising the People as Sinclair Lewis once did with his anathematization of them in Main Street and Babbit. It was they, not Lewis, who transacted American history, and it was he who was reduced to writing books in which he hated them on paper.

Charlie Rose just does not care if Obama spent twenty years being mentored by the heathen Jeremiah Wright; just think of 20 years of Wright's profanity and twenty years of Wright commanding God to damn our God given nation!

Further to this point,
They say Republicans have gone downscale as a party and left the upper crust WASP model and settled into the lower-end of society...
See the excellent essay by Tony Blankley on the pseudoconservative ship-jumpers, particularly Peggy Noonan and David Brooks, here:
New "Me-Too'ers".
See also the interesting reply by a self-described elitist who wrote in to lay down the law to Tony and all the lowbrow conservative unwashed, in the blog appended to the article. Sample from her rant:
Grassroots cannot provide the foundation for an ideological movement. Only the intellectuals can do that. It takes the intellectuals to establish doctrine from which politicians derive their agenda. Fact. The masses cannot govern effectively on their own (but they can kill Socrates). That is because they are not very intelligent and informed ....
You exist in a Palin bubble of delusion. Every conservative outside of the Palin bubble of delusion, and there are a lot of us, can clearly see that Palin is not actually conservative. She is intellectually disintegrated. ....
It's an interesting assertion, although it is patently vanguardist in a way that only a Leninist could properly appreciate.
Never mind, by the way, that Socrates killed himself by selecting his own punishment from those offered him by his Athenian jurors -- the People. He chose hemlock over exile to one-up them, and teachers down through history have told the story strictly ex parte Socrates. Among the better-educated familiar with his case, presumably like this screedist, there has been a continuously fertile discussion about whether Socrates, having chosen it, actually earned his sentence.

Nehemiah 4
Opposition to the Rebuilding
1. When Sanballat heard that we were rebuilding the wall, he became angry and was greatly incensed. He ridiculed the Jews,
2 . and in the presence of his associates and the army of Samaria, he said, "What are those feeble Jews doing? Will they restore their wall? Will they offer sacrifices? Will they finish in a day? Can they bring the stones back to life from those heaps of rubbleburned as they are?"
3. Tobiah the Ammonite, who was at his side, said, "What they are buildingif even a fox climbed up on it, he would break down their wall of stones!"
4. Hear us, O our God, for we are despised. Turn their insults back on their own heads. Give them over as plunder in a land of captivity.
5. Do not cover up their guilt or blot out their sins from your sight, for they have thrown insults in the face of [a] the builders.
6. So we rebuilt the wall till all of it reached half its height, for the people worked with all their heart.
7. But when Sanballat, Tobiah, the Arabs, the Ammonites and the men of Ashdod heard that the repairs to Jerusalem's walls had gone ahead and that the gaps were being closed, they were very angry.
8. They all plotted together to come and fight against Jerusalem and stir up trouble against it.
9. But we prayed to our God and posted a guard day and night to meet this threat.
10. Meanwhile, the people in Judah said, "The strength of the laborers is giving out, and there is so much rubble that we cannot rebuild the wall."
11. Also our enemies said, "Before they know it or see us, we will be right there among them and will kill them and put an end to the work."
12. Then the Jews who lived near them came and told us ten times over, "Wherever you turn, they will attack us."
13. Therefore I stationed some of the people behind the lowest points of the wall at the exposed places, posting them by families, with their swords, spears and bows.
14 . After I looked things over, I stood up and said to the nobles, the officials and the rest of the people, "Don't be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons and your daughters, your wives and your homes."
15. When our enemies heard that we were aware of their plot and that God had frustrated it, we all returned to the wall, each to his own work.
16. From that day on, half of my men did the work, while the other half were equipped with spears, shields, bows and armor. The officers posted themselves behind all the people of Judah 17 who were building the wall. Those who carried materials did their work with one hand and held a weapon in the other,
18. and each of the builders wore his sword at his side as he worked. But the man who sounded the trumpet stayed with me.
19. Then I said to the nobles, the officials and the rest of the people, "The work is extensive and spread out, and we are widely separated from each other along the wall.
20. Wherever you hear the sound of the trumpet, join us there. Our God will fight for us!"
21. So we continued the work with half the men holding spears, from the first light of dawn till the stars came out.
22. At that time I also said to the people, "Have every man and his helper stay inside Jerusalem at night, so they can serve us as guards by night and workmen by day."
23. Neither I nor my brothers nor my men nor the guards with me took off our clothes; each had his weapon, even when he went for water.
