In 2008, Barack Obama was The Seattle Times’ choice for president. Four years later, we endorse him again, with less enthusiasm. But he is a better choice than Mitt Romney, and could still go down in history as a good president...

The journalists and their publications who make up the “media” should no longer be allowed to refer to themselves as “the media”. America does not have a media. Instead, they should collectively be referred to as “the social democrat press” (sdp).

Bottom line: Obama’s presidency has been disappointing, but he still has promise. Romney would be too much of a gamble.

Liberal logic.

True story — Saturday was the last day of free bus service in downtown Seattle. Apparently it was losing money. This is the intellectual powerhouse that eagerly awaits the verdict of the Seattle Times each day.

But the high-fivin’ white guys are voting Romney.

Romney has no experience in foreign affairs, and it shows.

An incredibly funny line..like zero had experience in foreign affairs, or anything else for that matter, before entering the white house..and Romney only ran a successful Olympic games..which has absolutely no foreign countries..right?

Basically the print media is sucking up to what it thinks will be their safety net as they become more irrelevant.

The “Times” also recommends installing a backup alarm system on the Titanic.

I wonder if we could make him President of just such states as Washington, Oregon, California and have him complete his job of messing up their economies, ruining their foreign policies, and driving their people to dementia.

this “endorsement” gives new meaning to the phrase “damning with faint praise”. It’s more like “faintly praising with robust damning”.

This story is one of the most bizarre pieces of writing I have seen in a while. I wonder what an English professor would say about all the self cancelling references and subject denials.

He COULD go down in history as an oyster, too. Fat chance for either.

I usually consider LSM endorsements as an indicator of the way NOT to vote. About 97%+ accuracy...

“”He COULD go down in history as an oyster, too...”

Much better odds on “flaming dirtbag narcissistic anti-American twerp”...
