Dallas Morning News taken off Barack Obama's plane

Dallas Morning News ^ | November 1, 2008 | Ryan J. Rusak

Isn’t it an anti-trust violation for a politician to pick what news sources cover him or her?

I think it’s funny that Obama takes a crap all over them and they still make excuses for him. Textbook masochism (and stupidity)...But then again, stupidity is nothing new to the Dallas Morning News.

The rest of the media is just hoping to be "the last one the crocodile eats."

I don’t know any libertarian conservatives who are NOT voting for McCain.

And here’s a newsflash for those clowns, they’ll be among the first to be tossed off the plane, probably from 30,000 feet up.

Obama is still showing mercy BEFORE THE ELECTION. He's still having his plane land first before throwing reporters out. That policy will no doubt change.

[Bigh4u2]

He’s not saying they can’t cover Obama.

They’re just saying they can’t ride with him.

Basically Obama told them “Get your own ride. We’re full!”

[Bender2]

After years of being liberal, the Dallas Morning Snooze finds... to coin a phrase of their ilk's pastor, “Their chickens are coming home to roost!”

[ROCKLOBSTER]

imagine the outcry if McCain kicked off ABCCBSNBCPBS and CNN from Air Force 1 on Jan. 21.

Think we could get him to do that?

[Redbob]

The most-reliably-liberal, socialist newspaper in Texas, and Obama has their reporter kicked off his plane???

Obama doesn’t realize the The Morning Spew only endorsed McCain once, but their editorials generally run Dimocrat 10:1 over GOP?

I think it’s funny when they turn on themselves...

Well that's wonderful! I didn't realize that you know ALL of them from coast to freakin' coast.

Never mind then.

No need for sarcasm here. Not every person who supported Ron Paul in the primaries is voting third party or abstaining. You shouldn’t tar the entire group with your brush.

[imintrouble]

The press has reported what Obama has been telling them - so it shouldn’t matter to all of us because he isn’t honest anyway.

We might get more truth by having them as observers deciding their own storylines.

[blackie]

Ah yes, those roosting chickens, again.

I prefer roasting chickens, myself. ;)

No need for sarcasm here. Not every person who supported Ron Paul in the primaries is voting third party or abstaining.

Were it not for the Paulistinians, we would very likely have a more conservative, more viable ticket than we do right now. That is the unvarnished truth and Ron Paul did as much as any RINO to produce a weaker ticket, which is why even the most optimistic polling shows 0bama and McCain neck and neck. You shouldn’t tar the entire group with your brush.

The Hell I shouldn't, and I do.

[Publius6961]

Yeah, just imagine the outcry if McCain kicked off ABCCBSNBCPBS and CNN from Air Force 1 on Jan. 21. Think there’d be an uproar?

That's the difference between winners and losers.

Winners don't give a flying c**p about "uproar."

[tenger]

I did search. I really did. I thought it was odd that it wasn’t covered yet.
