Economic collapse in September,loss of jobs,Republican corruption and spending,GOP lack of clear message on improving economy,jobs,accomplishments of the last 8 yrs.(War on Terror,strong economy for 7 yrs.),and should have done a better job of hanging this Fannie/Freddie failure around the liberals necks where it belongs.

If the GOP does not harness new transfers of information to the public,the democrats are going to be able to get away with all kinds of corruption and failure.

We saw the dems and their friends in the media just push a failed community organizer into the White House American Idol style.

Now they are going to work to give him credit for the achievements of the Bush administration,spin his failures and broken promises into a “blame Bush” for everything even
when he is gone,and tell everybody that if they give them “another” 4 yrs.,that Obama will be able to keep his promises then.

This post is a good example of American Pravda serving their leader:

The New Obama Rules
http://moneyrunner.blogspot.com/2008/11/new-obama-rules.html

Given the MSM’s track record as one arm of the Democrat national Committee and the official cheering section of the Obama campaign, it’s little wonder that now that “The One” has been elected bad news is good news.

Exhibit A is the headline that accompanied a recent bombing in Iraq that killed scores of people. Since the US invasion of Iraq, the Obamamedia have used violence as a metric of how badly things were going.

But now that Bush is on the way out and Obama is on the way in:
Iraq bombings show progress, challenges
It’s a measure of progress that today’s blasts, which killed at least 31 people in Baghdad and more elsewhere, according to the Associated Press, represented the worst day of violence since June.

Yes, believe it or not, bomb blast show how wonderful that world is now that Obama has been elected.

This is lick spittle reporting at it’s finest. You can’t make this stuff up folks.

If you thought that the media would try to reclaim the mantle of objectivity, you are fooling yourself. Obama has done no wrong in the past and will do no wrong in the future. I wrote about this in Governing From The Center.

As evidence, exhibit B:
Obama Won’t Meet Everybody’s Expectations
This is Newsweek’s’ preemptive strike in anticipation of Obama failures. The rock star who received the adulation of hundred of thousand of Europe’s youth will, according to Newsweek, not get the world to love us:
America’s allies got the candidate they overwhelmingly preferred, but that doesn’t necessarily mean America’s relationships with the globe will warm instantly. In fact, history is strewn with rock-star presidents whose first years were terrific disappointments for U.S. allies.
But we were told that Obama was the One that the world was waiting for. What do other Presidents have to do with the global adulation he received even before he was elected? His mere presence electrified all of Europe. What could he possibly do to disappoint the world? Newsweek goes on to list a few items that Obama promised and suggest he won’t do as he promised. But these are all within the power of a President whose party controls both houses of Congress. So what is Newsweek trying to tell us?

And then there’s exhibit C. If you remember nothing of the Obama campaign, you remember that he promised 95% of the American people a tax cut. Now we get this APObama headline:
AP poll: Public seems willing to wait on tax cuts
Why in the world would the MSM poll this question? Here’s the story:
People want the tax cuts promised during the presidential campaign, but may be willing to wait while President-elect Obama takes on the larger issue of fixing the economy.

Eighty percent say trimming personal tax rates should be a goal when the new president takes office in January, but only 36 percent say the cuts should a very top priority, according to a new Associated Press-GfK poll. That was less than half the 84 percent who cited improving the economy as a No. 1 goal, and the 80 percent who said creating jobs should be a paramount task.

“I don’t think it’s going to work in this instance,” said Ryan Anderson, 31, a Democrat from Bloomington, Minn., who thinks tax reductions would have little impact on most families’ budgets. “That’s kind of like shooting a BB gun at a freight train.”

Obama promised to cut taxes for working families during the campaign.
Obama didn’t simply promise to cut taxes, he pounded, pounded, pounded the theme that 95% of the American people would get a tax cut.

The theme is obvious, someone has leaked to the AP that the primary economic promise of the Obama campaign – that 95% of the American people will see their taxes cut – is not going to happen. And the AP dutifully commissions a poll that tells us that that’s all right; “the people” really didn’t want a tax cut.

So the ObamaMedia are preparing the American people for the future. In the future there are two rules. The first rule is that whatever Obama does is right. The second rule is that if he screws up, lies, or fails to deliver refer to rule one.

Republicans better get into fight mode and out of “get to the center mode” or all of Obama’s 57 states are going to be
blue.

An Obama Tilt in Campaign Coverage
By Deborah Howell
Sunday, November 9, 2008; B06
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/11/07/AR2008110702895_pf.html

The Post provided a lot of good campaign coverage, but readers have been consistently critical of the lack of probing issues coverage and what they saw as a tilt toward Democrat Barack Obama. My surveys, which ended on Election Day, show that they are right on both counts.

Remember how all you liberals love talking about the “will of the majority”.Well the vast majority of this country disagrees with you liberal:

Most Voters Say News Media Wants Obama to Win
http://people-press.org/report/463/media-wants-obama
Summary of Findings

Voters overwhelmingly believe that the media wants Barack Obama to win the presidential election. By a margin of 70%-9%, Americans say most journalists want to see Obama, not John McCain, win on Nov. 4. Another 8% say journalists don’t favor either candidate, and 13% say they don’t know which candidate most reporters support.

This is exactly where the media is,Chris is just to dumb to keep denying it.
Matthews: My Job Is To Make Obama Presidency a Success

CHRIS MATTHEWS: Yeah, well, you know what? I want to do everything I can to make this thing work, this new presidency work, and I think that –
JOE SCARBOROUGH: Is that your job? You just talked about being a journalist!
MATTHEWS: Yeah, it is my job. My job is to help this country.

Yea,Acorn is the big nothing to democrats who have cried and screamed that Bush stole 2000/2004 elections without one
single shred of proof.
But we get hundreds of thousands of fake registrations,and testimony from Acorn workers that they are told to get people to vote more than once and vote Obama(with the help of hundreds of thousands of dollars from their campaign)and
dipsh!t liberals like shipley and drywall all of a sudden don’t see anything wrong with the voting system,no “diebold”
conspiracies when democrats win:

POLITICS: Obama and the Integrity Gap: ACORN
Chapter four of seven.
C. ACORN
http://baseballcrank.com/archives2/2008/10/war_the_grievin.php

ACORN’s rap sheet for voter fraud alone is extensive. This is “an organization that has a “decade long history of voter fraud, embezzlement and misuses of taxpayer funds” that Consumer Rights League Chief Public Advocate, James Terry testified about last month to the House Judiciary.” For example: flagrantly fraudulent voter registrations in Nevada; “5,000 ACORN registrants in St. Louis were sent letters by election officials asking the recipient to contact them. Fewer than 40 responded”; “In Kansas City, 15,000 ACORN registrations have been questioned and in November, 4 ACORN employees were indicted for fraud. Additionally ACORN officials have been indicted in Wisconsin and Colorado, and there are on-going investigations in Ohio, Florida, Pennsylvania and Tennessee.” * * * * * * * * * * * *

Obama could not be more closely tied to ACORN if he was an oak tree:
Meeting last November with the leaders of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (Acorn) – the nationwide network of left-wing community groups that taps government money for a host of causes – Obama declared: “I’ve been fighting alongside Acorn on issues you care about my entire career,” including representing Acorn in a court case in Illinois. Acorn members apparently reciprocated by working hard to turn out voters for Obama’s Illinois campaigns, according to a 2003 piece in the magazine Social Policy by a Chicago-area Acorn organizer. After the candidate’s November appearance, Acorn’s affiliated political action committee endorsed Obama for president.

The Complete Guide to ACORN Voter Fraud
October 14, 2008 – by Jim Hoft
http://pajamasmedia.com/blog/the-complete-guide-to-acorn-voter-fraud/

Further igniting the voter fraud/voter registration debate was the news that a national community organizing group is being investigated in at least 14 states and several swing states for massive irregularities. This news would make headlines anyway, but what made it worse was that Barack Obama was a key player in this organization, the [3] Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, in the past. Obama [4] trained its local leaders, [5] represented the organization in court, and worked to [6] funnel funds to the organization. The Obama campaign also [7] donated $800,000 this year to an ACORN affiliate.

The facts are overwhelming except to super intelligent liberals like shipley and drywall.They have more important
issues to investigate like Palin’s tanning bed or whether she really is the mother of Trig.

Getting a lecture from idiot liberals like these about sticking to “legitimate issues” is about as dumb as saying that a failed community organizer whose only accomplishment is writing two books about himself is going to bring “hope and change” to the world.

Baxter Greene on November 13, 2008 at 10:55 AM

Except for Bush manipulating intelligence to build his case for invading Iraw and the torture issue, your list is in stupid tin foil hat land.
Dave Rywall on November 13, 2008 at 11:55 AM

Hey genius,if you could pull your head out of john stewart’s
a$$ long enough,you might want to read:

The 2003 Senate intelligence report
9/11 commission report
The Butler report
2008 Senate intelligence report(chaired by a majority of democrats)

That all stated plain enough for even you to understand that Bush neither lied nor manipulated pre-war intelligence.

Bush never lied to us about Iraq
The administration simply got bad intelligence. Critics are wrong to assert deception.
By James Kirchick

Yet in spite of all the accusations of White House “manipulation” — that it pressured intelligence analysts into connecting Hussein and Al Qaeda and concocted evidence about weapons of mass destruction — administration critics continually demonstrate an inability to distinguish making claims based on flawed intelligence from knowingly propagating falsehoods.

In 2004, the Senate Intelligence Committee unanimously approved a report acknowledging that it “did not find any evidence that administration officials attempted to coerce, influence or pressure analysts to change their judgments.” The following year, the bipartisan Robb-Silberman report similarly found “no indication that the intelligence community distorted the evidence regarding Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction.”

‘Bush Lied’? If Only It Were That Simple.

As you read through the report, you begin to think maybe you’ve mistakenly picked up the minority dissent. But, no, this is the Rockefeller indictment. So, you think, the smoking gun must appear in the section on Bush’s claims about Saddam Hussein’s alleged ties to terrorism.
But statements regarding Iraq’s support for terrorist groups other than al-Qaeda “were substantiated by intelligence information.” Statements that Iraq provided safe haven for Abu Musab al-Zarqawi and other terrorists with ties to al-Qaeda “were substantiated by the intelligence assessments,” and statements regarding Iraq’s contacts with al-Qaeda “were substantiated by intelligence information.” The report is left to complain about “implications” and statements that “left the impression” that those contacts led to substantive Iraqi cooperation.

But the phony “Bush lied” story line distracts from the biggest prewar failure: the fact that so much of the intelligence upon which Bush and Rockefeller and everyone else relied turned out to be tragically, catastrophically wrong.

Of course facts don’t matter to idiots like you.

And I agree with you,that list is in “stupid tinfoil hat mode”.It is a list that represents all the ignorant stupidity from people like you that make up the democratic party.That list was the bed you and your liberal friends made, not anybody else.
