When some people questioned how Obama could have sat in that cesspool of a church for a thousand Sundays, Obama said that anyone who would ask such a rude question was obviously a racist, knowing full well that the MSM, aka the amen corner, could be counted on not only to parrot his words, but to clap hands and shout “Hallelujah!”
If some of us began to confuse news stories about Obama with his campaign press releases, it’s because they were interchangeable, although the press releases tended to be more restrained and, usually, better written.
When Geraldine Ferraro dared to point out that if he were white, the inexperienced Obama would not be running for president, there was such a firestorm of media outrage that Hillary Clinton had to toss her under the bus.
Clearly, though, when 90% of blacks were voting for Obama when he was running against someone as liberal as Sen. Clinton, it should have been pretty obvious to one and all that the allegedly post-racial candidate was about as post-racial as Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson or Jeremiah Wright.
Considering how cynical the members of the press like to consider themselves, it’s rather amusing how naive and, well, slobbering the members of the press can be when they really put their minds to it.
The members of the MSM showed themselves to be nothing more than partisan hacks. And in the end, Obama owed his victory more to the financial meltdown than to their ethical meltdown.
The MSM reminds me of Marlon Brando’s character in “On the Waterfront.” By taking a dive, they’ve forfeited their chance to be contenders…for our respect. Instead, like Terry Malloy, they’re just bums.

And to think that by looking around FR just a little bit that the MSM is on a deathwatch.
I always read that in America, anyone could become president.
Horror of horrors, that’s just what happened.

The MSM reminds me of someone playing Renfield to a socialist Dracula.
How come the MSM put up video of Palin in her church...but refused to share the audio of Obama’s church?
If the media does not run Pelosi out of town for saying abortion would help the economy, then they cannot nor should not be saved
Prelustky has been unmasked as Captain Obvious.
The good news is that in America, anyone can become president. The bad news is that in America, anyone can become president.
why don’t they stop being coy and name him the messiah?
(then they can be diagnosed.)
