Washington Post: On second thought, maybe we were a little too Pro-Obama

The Palin assault continues

ABC Reignites ‘Troopergate’: Officer Portrayed as Victim, Palin as Guilty.

http://www.stoptheaclu.com/

There is a global Government-Media assault on Palin.

After being taken into a back room and beaten up by Harry Reid, Joe Lieberman reconsiders his party affiliation:

http://www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/6136

That sound we hear are the squeeky wheels of the great collective back pedal…lol…All too predictable and obvious as the MSM PORN desperately seeks both readership and relevance…sheeesh!

There are more Palin assaults coming, but I refuse to offer links. Suffice it to say my retorts have been scathing and widespread.

I think we need a massive movement to fight these smears. Kind of like an organization that does nothing but debunk each one. A marketing campaign.

PUMAS might need to do this. DONATIONS WOULD BE HUGE.

It is their sad attempt to regain their readership after they veered from true journalism. Too little, too late!

Meanwhile no investigations of any kind on Obama or voter fraud.

We live in some dangerous times.

Desperation is keeping the MSM putting the heat on Palin because if the Berg Supreme Court holds, it will be Biden as Democrat President, or if the leakings of Obama keep coming through the EC who can vote for who ever they want as the POTUS can switch from Obama as qualified.

Do not let Obama’s new sign “Office of the President Elect” sway anyone, that is what children without any sort of self confidence do, not adults who are expected to lead a country!

72 days is an eternity for buyers remorse and Obama hasn’t even had a week yet and is sinking in public opinion fast!

Perhaps the reason they feel the need to continue the assults on Sarah Palin is their actual fear of her. And a true fear of the future. There is no way Obama can continue his, godlike standing, while working in the real World. He knows it, and they know it. So the continued response is to bury the republican party in order to keep their hold on the unreality they spin.

I maintain that much of this pro-Obama coverage was generated by the large dollars he had to spend on advertising. I truly believe there were deals struck whereas they’d give favorable coverage in exchange for advertising revenue. He had what? 8 x more $$ than McCain?

I think it would be far more telling if the columnist above would list the dollars spent in advertising by each campaign, along with the story numbers during similar periods.

Betcha THAT won’t happen, huh?

Keep up the good work. Great site. As for “spreading the word”, it really gets old being called a racist over everything. You can’t prove a negative, and anything uttered or written is “proof”, even on conservative sites…

My sister-in-law is totally enthralled by Obama’s victory. I mean, she doesn’t have a clue about his qualifications – she just thinks it’s fabulous to have an AA in the White House.

She also tried to tell me about all of McCain’s racist remarks. I don’t remember a single racist remark by McCain.

This is just a shining example of the people who voted for Obama, knowing absolutely nothing about him and just believing what someone else told them. Grapevine politics. Scary.

And we can now know for sure that half of the people in this country are pure idiots.

They jumped the shark in this election. Even Democrats can see the bias. No offense to PUMAs

Lieberman was elected as an Independent but I guess unless you agree with the Democratic party on everything, you’re not welcome. Where has their much vaunted “tolerance” gone?? So much for bipartisanship too — out the window with all of their other virtues. Oh well, they do have That One, which is all that they ever wanted or asked for.

This is exactly why I cancelled our subscription to the Orlando Sentinel prior to the election. Wrote CANCELLED with a red marker on the bill. Got a call this week offering me a great new price. Told the caller….NO DEAL!!

The Washington Post piece is a joke. They do all their little abacus routines on the coverage, totting up the numbers — but they ignore whole questions that never got asked of Obama, research that wasn’t done, investigations that were never launched.

Second try. I worry about the server that NQ is on – posts have been disappearing since the new server took over.

well said, rob. The 4th estate is now totally dead. there is no news anymore, only opinions disguised as news, and even when they present news, those are filtered and slanted. One leg of a stable democracy has died.

Holy Sh!t- what is it about a woman in power that scares both men and some women witless?

Smike you are 110% right. They could care less about what they did all they care about is getting back their subscribers. To me journalism is dead and I refuse to buy any newspaper.I hope they all go under especially the NYT. The worst of the bunch. I hope we don’t have to hear everyday about Obama and how great he is and how he can’t do what he wants because the GOP ruined the country what bull.And now they are all bashing poor Sarah because she is the best thing that has come around in a long time and they can’t stand it. Everyone called her so stupid and now they all want to interview her. She should tell Oprah and Barbara Walters to kiss her a_ _ .

Exposing media corruption. Exposing BO/DNC/ACORN corruption. Exposing campaign funding corruption. We gotta keep on keeping on. Building critical mass takes tame. Take away the corruption, misogyny, big money and look at Axelrod’s ground game strategy. If we used his strategy LEGALLY and FAIRLY, we would have won, even with a lesser budget.

Circle the wagons around Sarah the woman, the governor, the VP candidate, the conservative Republican with common American sense NOW! Grab Bobby Jindal and other up and comers and let’s get this show on the road!

tolerance? thats for the old democratic party. the obamacrats are in charge now. They’ll make neo-cons look like harmless angels.

the guy who’s on his 4th wife by age 40, drank and drove in his police care, bet up his 3rd wife, and then used a taser on his step-son as a joke.

yeah, real saint and victim ya got there, MSM.

I bet the guy loves Obama’s favorite tune too–99 Problems but a Bitch Ain’t One, or whatever it is.

That’s how I feel.

Hmmmm…actually if Berg v Obama is won on the side of Berg then the election could be legally invalidated…Berg’s case in it’s entirety is against the fraudulent election perpetuated intentionally by the DNC. This is the constitutional crisis at the heart of his case. It is not just that Barky is ineligible to be POTUS…But that one political party colluded to perpetuating a fraud. As such Biden would be ineligible as well because the democratic ticket was a fraud….imho…

Most importantly do not keep your beliefs to yourself. Citizen silence can kill great nations. Keep spreading the word. Door to door, e-mail to e-mail, blog to blog. It is the only way to combat a free press that is no longer free.
…………………………..

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. This ‘Officer’ tasered a child, under ten years of age, more than once. His assigned weapon….YES WEAPON, which was used on a child. Why didn’t his OWN department file a CHILD ABUSE complaint.

HOW far on their knees is the PRESS (those people that think they are journalists) willing to go? Women and Children have always been the canaries in the mine.

The only people that will report the truth are the people! Journalism died in 2008.

It does sound like the Washington Post and Newsweek’s circulation is down. It been reported that Newsweek is down by thirty percent and MSNBC might not be too far behind. I was hoping that The PUMA movement could become some kind of a national political movement, but from some of the discussions it does not appear to be happening. I agree with them on all the women issues, but to be successful, I believe it must embrace all the segments of our society, not just women. I hope I am wrong, but I have some realy bad feelings.

Oops, building critical mass takes TIME. “Tame” we don’t need.

I cancelled my Boston Globe subscription during the primaries because I couldn’t take their fawning over Obama.

Tuppence–have you sent your research on the Romney treatment of Jane Swift to RRRA or Larry or Susan?

Or maybe to Team Sarah or the new Lady F de R group?

I agree that the post-election MSM self-flagellation was inevitable for all of the reasons stated by other commenters. It’s what they’re good at — remember how they belatedly recognized that maybe they went a bit overboard with the Lewinsky onslaught?

With the majority of newspapers and TV stations staving off financial ruin, we should all cancel any ongoing culprit subscriptions and keep your visits to their websites to a minimum or stop them whenever possible.

If this has been the death of racism (which I doubt), then it has come about only by switching that for a pernicious and rampant sexism. What good can come ultimately come from it? Just Not Acceptable!

Another Palin smear has been debunked. This one is actually funny.

The day of the third debate, Palin refused to go onstage with New Hampshire GOP Sen. John Sununu and Jeb Bradley, a New Hampshire congressman running for the Senate, because they were pro-choice and because Bradley opposed drilling in Alaska.
The McCain campaign ordered her onstage at the next campaign stop, but she refused to acknowledge the two Republican candidates standing behind her.

So according to the hatchet man/woman who talked to Newsweek, Palin is such an ideologue about drilling in ANWR that she won’t stand next to Bradley, even though John McCain has the exact same position?

Right!

http://weeklystandard.com/Weblogs/TWSFP/TWSFPView.asp#9531

I actually find it very interesting that Swift supported and campaigned for John McCain during the primaries against her own state’s governor. I do hope that she and Palin are in contact and that they consider joining Lady F de R’s group also.

1. shes a woman. 2. shes a successful, conservative feminist. no. 1 scares weak men. no.2 scares so-called women progressives. They dont like an outsider to rule over them.

It is the illusion of self criticism that is at root a very obvious cynical tactic…and quite insulting to the readers who are held in contempt…seeesh!

Where to find the truth? A conumdrum to be sure. NQ has been my first stop for the truth for some time now. And I thank you for that.

We would be remiss if we didn’t consider the American people’s role in this debacle. After the media sold them GWB not once, but twice and an unecessary war of choice, you would think they would be skeptical of what the MSM is selling. Honestly. What does it take for some people?

Get a clue, America. If the MSM is pushing it run far, far away.

Maybe it’s why I will “buy” something at the store, so I can own it for a little while — take it home and then realize that I really don’t need or want it and return it, with receipt ofcourse, before the return time is expired.

We will never know where the money given to his campaign came from, he has been given a pass on everything and the PRESS is still missing. Don’t expect anyone to ask any question, they will simply nod in agreement.

You really need to just put the whole blurb here. Everybody needs to read it all:

Via Isaac Chotiner, Newsweek reports:

The day of the third debate, Palin refused to go onstage with New Hampshire GOP Sen. John Sununu and Jeb Bradley, a New Hampshire congressman running for the Senate, because they were pro-choice and because Bradley opposed drilling in Alaska.

The McCain campaign ordered her onstage at the next campaign stop, but she refused to acknowledge the two Republican candidates standing behind her.

So according to the hatchet man/woman who talked to Newsweek, Palin is such an ideologue about drilling in ANWR that she won’t stand next to Bradley, even though John McCain has the exact same position?

And Palin is such an ideologue that she won’t appear with pro-choice politicians, even though she attended events with pro-choice Clinton donor Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild?
And we’re really supposed to believe that Palin is so dumb she doesn’t know Africa is a continent, but she knew about the voting records of John Sununu and Jeb Bradley in the first place?

Hmmm. I guess that might be remotely possible if it weren’t for the fact that John Sununu has a 100 percent pro-life rating from the National Right to Life Committee.

Glad to see that whoever leaked this story is too dumb to come up with a plausible smear. And kudos to Newsweek for dumping this whopper without bothering to check if Sununu is in fact pro-abortion.
Oh, and by the way, Jeb Bradley isn’t running for U.S. Senate, as Newsweek reports. Perhaps they might want to check out Wikipedia before publishing the next batch of Palin smears.

Did you really mean to write “main steam” media, or was that a Freudian slip. Because it’s a lot of dangerous hot air, all right.

Tuppence411…What scares them is INTEGRITY…
For many men it is simple fear and loathing of Females that is un-addressed and fear of power sharing…For many women it is fear of equality and the responsibility that entails coupled with a dose of envy…chuckle…

Ad eundum quo nemo ante lit…
To boldly go where no man has gone before…

Actually the Dems MUST own the RACE-Card and the GENDER-Card. When that is threatened they come out in droves and go into attack mode.

That is why Clarence Thomas was attacked so vigorously. The repubs were first to put a black man on the US supreme court. Dems went absolutley nuts.

No offense Pumas. I am a Puma. No longer a Repub. They too are bashing Governor Palin.

Every time you mention Palin, say it this way: Governor Palin.

Thank you so much for this post. I too was infuriated after reading the johnny come late to the party ombudsman. This statement is perhaps the most disingenuous “some readers complain that coverage is too poll-driven. They’re right, but it’s not going to change. The Post’s polling was on the mark, and in some cases ahead of the curve, in focusing on independent voters, racial attitudes, low-wage voters, the shift of African Americans’ support from Clinton to Obama and the rising importance of economic issues.”
Ahead of the curve???!!! Ahead??? Some of us call that undue influence. They are conveniently overlooking the impact of repeated hogwash stories which favored Obama and it’s incredible influence on opinion! What a sleezy pile of horse crap. They clearly continue to think we are all stupid, lazy, plug my butt into msm and think I know everything I there is to know citizens. This half hearted article of admission is yet another piece of bull. Let’s see how fast the msm is permanently positioned to champion the Obama administration. I am afraid this near honesty won’t last. We have got to keep on the media. If we don’t take back a free media this Country will never make its way out of the wilderness. Thank you again for this article.

Thanks Fluffy

LOL

PUMA to me was Hillary unleashed but she did not. Now like McCain it needs to wait for Joe the Plumber. Hey, lets recruit Joe the Plumber for a PUMA spokesman. Some training and walla.

we did the same to NYT and the New Yorker
tired of them insulting our intelligence

Bingo!

This is from Rush Limbaugh… Transcripts of Media People admitting they know shit about Obama

=======================

[Hear this on YouTube]

Where was this beforehand? Friday night… Wanna laugh? Friday night, Charlie Rose Show, Tom Brokaw and Charlie Rose.

ROSE: I don’t know what Barack Obama’s worldview is.

BROKAW: No, I don’t either.

ROSE: I don’t know how he really sees where China is.

BROKAW: We don’t know a lot about Barack Obama and the universe of his thinking about foreign policy.

ROSE: I don’t really know. And do we know anything about the people who are advising him?

BROKAW: You know that’s an interesting question.

ROSE: He is principally known through his autobiography and through very aspirational (sic) speeches, two of them.

BROKAW: I don’t know what books he’s read.

ROSE: What do we know about the heroes of Barack Obama?

BROKAW: There’s a lot about him we don’t know.

RUSH: That’s Tom Brokaw. Grab number three real quick, Mike. Grab sound bite number three. Tom Brokaw and Charlie Rose admitting they don’t know diddly-squat. All they had to do was assign a reporter! You had 18 months or two years to find out about the guy, just assign a reporter, Tom! You work at NBC News

Hmmm….Being Poor myself…chuckle…I generally don’t buy anything unless i have a need for it…and then I usually investigate it first since I don’t have a car and returns are an expensive and time consuming activity…I’m a big believer in Buyer Beware…

Wow, Newsweek wins the all time award for MORONS and A$$—ES.

As usual, you leave me in stitches. Do you have any idea how foolish it looks for the blog that has devoted all of its time and energy to bashing Barack Obama to complain that a newspaper has devoted too much space to him?

You make a shallow statement like that,, and you mock as if you’re better? LOL

I hate to say this, but

they*don’t*care!

It seems our government is no more than a football team to them and all that matters is that their “team”, in this case “Team Obama”, wins.

The British say “God Save the Queen.” Perhaps we need to preface our political meetings with, “God Save Democracy” since it seems that those protecting and defending it can’t…or won’t.

….don’t forget Ayers book is being re-released soon !

Gack, the guy should be arrested !

pro-abortion? If Chotiner wants to be taken seriously, he should not trot out the phrase of utmost stupidity ‘pro-abortion’. Chotiner is just another crotch obsessed Repub. When is the far-right going to stop trying to legislate their anti-woman/anti-gay bigotry? I look forward to more moderates in the party.

Thus video with Greta and Governor Palin’s friend of 40 years needs to get out there. It will make you feel a whole lot better. Solid.

It’s over. Let him have a chance to fail…I really want to see it. Maybe the America people will finally will wake up and not be so complacent the time. The media will be exposed.

Here is my letter to Ms. Howell -

Dear Ms. Howell,

Too little, too late. Your lack of scrutiny and neglecting to report on serious issues of concern for years, has brought untold grief upon so many Americans, I would go so far as to say that all of you are complicit in the war in Iraq, have the blood of countless soldiers and Iraqi citizens on your hands and are as responsible as George W. Bush and Dick Cheney for getting us into those wars. Because of this we are now subject to the incompetence and outright fraud of a President Obama (as much as GW and DC are responsible). Your weak attempt at making amends in this article is insufficient for what you have done to America.
In grief,

OT…I saw last night on HSN that they are selling Silver Dollars with JFK’s head and BO’s right next to it. OF ALL THE NERVE. I am so pissed. And by the way, he just won. How did they have all of these coins made in a few days? Hmmmmm….I want to puke.

Incidentally, the man’s name is “Barack”. Not “Barrack”, “Barack”. At least have the sense to correctly spell the names of people you claim to know something about.

There is a lot of CYA going on in the media now. I guess they think they will be forgiven, and we will start buying their newspapers and magazines again. Let them all go down the tubes. They deserve it.

It’s NOT over. The only way America wins is if every citizen who cherishes this country and what it used to be, never will be again, and who is a real patriot, will FIGHT LIKE HELL to expose this prick and get rid of him FAST. Sitting around and tolerating what was done to us is unacceptable. I, for one, will never let up on joining the brave people who will NEVER accept him as our “President” and continue to fight for our Constitution, our Freedoms and our right to reject Socialism.

Making news, not reporting news.

Making candidates, not reporting about them.

Electing presidents, not reporting about the people campaigning for president.

Little too late now fellas.
I will blame the entire media for blanketing this man from honest investigation…. I have had it with MSM!
I talked to a friend that lives in Germany today and he congratulated me on having a great President-elect. He was a bit shocked that I didn’t vote for him . Apparently the koolaid is flowing world-wide .

Why you have the good sense to realize that you are outnumbered here and leave.

I haven’t watched the news on ANY station since this happened. Nor have I bought the LA Times, etc. I am boycotting the MSM unless and until they are totally in the toilet and they grovel for the public to forgive them for what they did.

Hey thanks. By the way is barrack’s middle name?

Investor’s Business Daily is pretty good, if you need to buy a newspaper.

Hmmmm….Since America is a republic perhaps God save the republic?
Or better yet perhaps we could do away with facades and openly be the Empire since we suffer the usual empirical problems…chuckle…
Pax Americana !

I know many moderate repubs and dems that are pro-life. That is not necessarily right-wing. Most Right-wingers get their abortion stance from the Bible. I don’t. I think it is a medial ethics question as to how fully formed IT becomes before the procedure is allowed. As long as the woman is not harmed.

I am probably stepping in it here, forgive me.

I guess it depends on how fully developed the baby is determines their position. Obama says that even when the abortion is botched it is still OK to let IT die. Does this bother PUMAs.

What is PUMAs stance on botched abortions? Try to save or let die?

Just curious. Hope I don’t offend anyone.

Lol, so the little deatheaters clamed that they were under lord obamamort’s spell huh?.

ignore it. I’m strongly pro-life but have learned to just roll my eyes at republican abortion hysteria. After all, one of its leading proponents, Romney advisor Doug Kmiec, jumped aboard the Obama express immediately after Romney lost the primary election.

Yeah, Kmiec just bleeds for the “rights of the unborn” if he could spend 6 months of his life campaigning for Obama and against McCain and Palin, right?

ummm hmmm

BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, THINK ABOUT WHO WOULD BE INTERESTED IN SPREADING THIS KIND OF CRAP ABOUT PALIN AND NEW HAMPSHIRE REPUBS WHO LOST

Can you say aides to Mitt Romney? I knew you could.

I went over to the Charlie Rose site and watched this entire program. It’s amazing that, after this bizarre exchange, they slip right back into the “yeah, we don’t know, but it’s ok … it’s “historic” … it’s “change” mode that has been the mantra of Obama supporters in the media all year long. The seem drugged and involved in some sort of share hallucination. When you watch this interview, Tom and Charlie seem so ultra calm about these admissions … as if they are very, very far away from it all.

No…I think this will be a good hard lesson for the America people. We need it because too many people are apathetic and lazy.

BROKAW: There’s a lot about him we don’t know.

And this sounds to you like a guy who’s in the tank for Obama?

Clearer heads might be inclined to think that Brokaw is attempting to instill a sense of fear into listeners about the man.

As he did throughout the campaign, incidentally. Did you not notice?

Regarding the continuing attacks on Governor Palin: I remember how the attacks on Hillary Clinton continued even after they left the White House. There was a concerted effort to establish her in the public’s perception as a shrill, overly ambitious, and divisive woman. It stuck with a lot of people, as evident by comments from individuals throughout the 07 primary. I think the same kind of effort is at work on the Governor, to assure that she has a tainted image should she attempt to run for national office again.

I think they realize how powerful she is and they want to destory her so she has no chance of running for president.

this is a typical obama supporter. Most of them can connect the dots, but in the end they cant see the picture.

This is OT, but it is what I said on this blog and others in recent days. The next thing to watch for is the fate of Patrick Fitzgerals, and then Barry and the rest of the fools here will have gotten away with everything again. Tony Rezko only has to wait a few years to be pardoned by BHO.

CHICAGO (WLS) — Barack Obama’s election this week will create an opening in the United States Senate.
Those who want the job are jockeying for position.
The decision on who will represent Illinois in the Senate is Governor Rod Blagojevich’s to make. But Obama friend and confident Valerie Jarrett is the president-elect’s preference.
Whether that is merely Obama’s personal opinion, or if he intends to lobby on Jarrett’s behalf, remains to be seen. After all, Obama has to focus on a national agenda and may not want to be seen trying to influence the governor’s call.

We also may see a battle joined between the Weekly Standard, which supported McCain, and the National Review, which supported Romney.

The NR was where most of the obnoxious Palin bashing was published over the last month or two…many of the NR columnists were hard core worshippers of Romney and were just furious that McCain chose Palin. It was absolutely disgusting.

Unfortunately the Weekly Standard has Fred Barnes, who is a total sack of inside the beltway sh!t that I haven’t been able to hold my nose and subscribe.

BUT if the Weekly Standard will get out fast and hard against these Palin smears, I may have to reconsider it.

NC girl writes: Why you have the good sense to realize that you are outnumbered here and leave.

Because no have good sense to realize might make right.

Did anyone notice that ridiculous sign that was on the podium at Obama’s press conference…Office of the President Elect. HA! Does he not realize that everyone is laughing at him for that? It’s like that fake presidential seal that appeared on the podium that “one” time and then disappeared. What a putz. I didn’t hear the MSM say anything about it either. They still have their heads so far up his butt that they can see his tonsils. They are admitting to bias while still giving him deference at the same time.

There are fundamentally two arguments.
one that is legal…Pro choice.
One that is religious…Pro life.

If a person believes in True Equality of the sexes then imposing controls on WOMEN ONLY should be held in contempt by anyone who holds that the state should not have that power over the life of the individual…
It cuts both ways…It gives the state the power to implement reproductive policy whether that be forced pregancies or forced abortions and population controls…This is the leagal argument behind Pro-Choice.
The religious argument is a legal fallacy and a distraction…and a successful one at that…imho…

Crap. I’m strongly PRO-CHOICE lol

not strongly PRO-LIFE good lord

Yesterday were wo different progammed Obots here.
With names like jennifer and Marc.
They were supposed to have a different tone I guess.
Anyway, maybe some of You noticed.

One of thm said “I cannot make You like him, blablabla”

This is just so ridiculous. We don’t have to like the president. he has to be qualified and experienced. he has to have character and class, so everybody can sleep sound, if that phonecall comes.

None of the obove is true for BO.

We don’t even talk about the fact that he is a corrupt politician and has cheated and bought his way to the WH. Or that his attacks were always personal “Anni Oakley’ “Lipstick on a pig”.
While he was untouchable because of his race.

Okay, I don’t want to like the president, he has to be the best man for the job.
And he is definetely not.

I am boycotting the MSM unless and until they are totally in the toilet

Didn’t you just say that they are totally in the toilet?

Yes, isn’t it curious that the paid trolls are still here? Still trying to control the media and squash dissent.

Fluffy are you a repub? I was a repub about a week ago? Now a PUMA independent. I guess I am pro-life but that label is misleading. It depends how late the procedure is allowed.

If you are a Dem I know pro-life Dems.

I think it might be Romney also. But my powers of discernment have failed me completely of late.

well said

Obama was truly an Affirmative Action candidate.
It’s shameful that Obama and Obamedia proved Dr. King wrong.
It really was all about skin color – not character.

silver dollars should be made with larry sinclair
and obama kissing on them

Our tax dollars at work ?..lol

I meant to put the word “don’t” behind Why. So it should be “Why don’t you have the good sense to realize that you are outnumbered and leave.” Now that I have clarified that, DO IT.

How’s that Universal Health Care System working out for your Obamascum? Oops, you’re not getting it. ROFLMAO. Why don’t you trolls leave?

There is nothing more pathetic than some dirtbag sitting in their underpants in their Mommy’s basement trolling for OVomit. If I had that job I would kill myself and get it over with.

Change you can believe in, folks. lol

Yes,
I am from Germany.
My mother wrote an email, happy, happy.
We wrote back “Thank god it’s over”

(my husband is AA)

What about late term abortions, botched abortions, or abortion on demand? For me it is a medical-scientific question, not religious.

The term pro-choice is vague. I don’t want to tell woman what to do but Medical-Science disallows certain procedure for ethical reasons alone, not religious.

“imposing controls on WOMEN ONLY” sounds like a straw-man argument. Are you saying that medical procedure should be totally unrestrained with no ethical oversight.

I believe in true equality of the sexes meaning equal rights. There can’t be true equality of the sexes, whatever that means. They have equal rights under the law. Men and woman are different.

what a sophomoric comparative, blog to world renown newspapers. that’s like comparing the military power of Switzerland to Russia, moron.

hadenough lurches against the keyboard: By the way is barrack’s middle name?

I assume you mean to ask “what is Barack’s middle name?”

Since you know it as well as I do, I’m compelled to wonder: why do you think this is significant?

Take your time, and choose your words carefully. You’ve dug a bit of a hole here, and you’ll need to take care in getting out of it.

Sigh. I’m a republican, I guess. I’m a social liberal, small government, military and national defense hawk.

I’m one of the dreaded RINOS because I’m pro-choice and pro-gay rights. I happen to like former NJ governor Christie Todd Whitman, but she is reviled on right wing blogs and right wing talk radio.

She was here in NV at McCain/Palin headquarters!!!!!! I should have bought her book, but I’m tapped out because I donated so much to the campaign.

I mean women should choose but up to certain time limits. So that makes me pro choice but I am not a late-late-term abortion supporter unless it harms the woman. The whole debate is mired in labels really. I think Obama is an abortion extremist actually. What do PUMAS think?

or with Rahm Emanuel and BO

Here is the info I have from an Obama Timeline regarding Jarret’s relationships…

In 1989, Obama works briefly at the Sidley Austin LLP Law Firm, as a summer associate from Harvard law School, where he meets future wife Michelle LaVaughan Robinson; she is his mentor at the law firm. Also working at the firm is Bernadine Dohrn (1984-1988), former Weather Underground radical, terrorist bomber, fugitive from the FBI (having achieved “most wanted list” status), and wife of fellow radical William Ayers. (Although Dohrn works for the law firm, her criminal record prevents her from being admitted to the Illinois bar.) [50,55,324]

Obama’s summer job at Sidley Austin is likely arranged by William Ayers and Ayers’ father, Tom Ayers, (CEO of Commonwealth Edison, 1975-1986). [259]

1991-1992

In 1991, Michelle Robinson is hired by Valerie Jarrett to work for the City of Chicago, for $60,000 per year; Jarrett is rumored to be the likely chief of staff in an Obama Administration; she was born in Iran in 1956, to American parents, while her father was working there on the staff of the Nemazee hospital. It is said that Obama makes few major decisions without referring to Jarrett. [245,246,352]

These are the positions that Jarrett has had:

Chicago Stock Exchange – chair
Chicago Transit Authority – chairman
Richard M. Daley – deputy chief of staff
Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago – board member
University of Chicago – trustee

You can regurgitate what you learn in grad school. But the question really is can your analyze it and then apply it, can you investigate something yourself or do you believe everything you are spoon fed by your party and the media? so while i applaud your spelling abilities, you still have poor judgement. Is it sound judgement to know that person with no experience and who takes three tries to get a response to russia taking over Georgia to get it right and then vote for that person to run his country. Or allow someone to create national health care system when he doesn’t know what a child who has asthma uses for treatment and his wife works at a hospital. And why would you trust your personal safety and that of your family in the hands of a man whose on VP says he will be tested, and no matter how it was spun you have know that he said it would not happen if mccain was elected. then how about the fact that obama wants to bankrupt the coal industry when coal provides 50% of our energy, obama wasn’t to change your behavior as if you were a pigion pecking mozart for bird seeds ,are gas prices not high enough? is there not enough unemployement that we can just let miners and processing plants go under. There is not a person alive who can justify their vote for obama or call people who don’t delusional or shallow. Shiloh can use spell check to solve her problem, but as of yet they have nothing that can cure rampant stupidity. cause unless you wake the hell up, you are going look around and have no rights. this is the third time you’ve had an inexperienced cheat in the white house. one just reads better than the other. now we have to live with your poor decision making skills for four years.

There is nothing more pathetic than some dirtbag sitting in their underpants in their Mommy’s basement trolling for OVomit. If I had that job I would kill myself and get it over with.

I can think of at least one thing more pathetic: your characterization of any dissenting voice as the above.

Why are you so afraid of dissent, anyway? Grow some balls, for christ’s sake.

Good lord, yes.

And shouldn’t he be being quieter right now. Has anyone told him he’s not the pres. yet? That we only have one at a time and it’s still Bush? Bambi gets his chance to step in it on Jan 20th. at 12:01pm. God help us all.

Hey wca, serious suggestion. One of Obama’s promises was to create an “army of new teachers” … if he delivers on anything, this may actually be it. Have you looked into a teaching position? Most districts will hire you on a provisional basis as long as you go to weekend classes to work towards your license.

The pay is pretty good, and believe it or not, middle school students can be quite charming. And a great teacher has a chance of changing a middle school kid’s life. By high school the hard core devotees of Barry O’s favorite musical artists’ lifestyles are too far gone, sadly.

I am not afraid of dissent, it is the Obamabullies that squash any dissent against The One. You are here as a paid troll to continue what went on throughout this campaign.

Remember Palin was the only one that took on Obama. Even McCain was not as outspoken as she.
For goodness sake the “Poor Trooper” wasn’t even fired! He’s a wife beating child abuser and the Democrats have defended him.

And yet so-called feminists bleat on about Roe v Wade. Where’s their outrage about the treatment of this woman and her child? Crickets…. That’s what I thought.

Well, they won’t get called up into Obama’s military draft

They are both mega wealthy, so their lives won’t be effected by a global financial meltdown

They apparently look forward to being the snotty uber wealthy ones in their armored cars driving through the teeming throngs of shit and blood-smeared “little people” in the streets

If no one watched or clicked on MSM sites, they will quickly lose revenue and perhaps it might force them to mend their ways. Even now I believe they have noticed a drop in their readership and viewership; thus the spate of mea culpas we are now seeing. But we should not be so easily hoodwinked again. With the internet, (like NQ) we can find the information we need to make informed decisions.

Man are we on the same page. How rare with so many parameters to divide us.

In my opinion virtually every biblical argument is doomed. But I am not intolerant of religious people even though Evangelicals make me crazy. But I have faith in God. I am more of a deist being a scientist.

I would not call you a RINO because you a strong on defense. By your definition I am a RINO, and that freaks me out.

last word fetishist

Why don’t you grow a BRAIN? Oops, if you had one you wouldn’t be supporting that criminal azzhole BO. How ARE those welfare checks coming? Oops, you’re not getting them because BO is in the pocket of those who BOUGHT and STOLE the election for him. Guess the morons who voted for him will in fact have to pay for their mortgages and gas. HAHAHAHAHAHHH…DUMBAZZES.

PS. I welcome dissent. From intelligent people.

NC Girl write: So it should be “Why don’t you have the good sense to realize that you are outnumbered and leave.”

Thanks for the clarification. Am I to understand that you are the sort of person who welcomes opinion only from those who agree with you?

Sorry, would you mind posting the name of Lady F d R’s new group again? I didn’t go yesterday to join, and now I’ve forgotten.

The NY Times is on its last leg already. I hear the sound of the final FLUSH down the bowl. Couldn’t happen to a better group of lying trash.

YES. Great post, thank you.

Barracks O’bomber

is that spelled right?

whoops, that is spelled William Ayers. silly me

I am not afraid of dissent, it is the Obamabullies that squash any dissent against The One.

Oh, I see. Get a lot of those here, do you?

Maybe we should apply the “ignore-rule” for Burbank Widow. And others, that are a waist of time.

This is true; you can google it yourself.

On November 5 — the day after BO’s election — in Obama’s home state of Illinois — the evening Pick 3 lottery number was 6-6-6.

An “omen” of things to come?

PS. I welcome dissent. From intelligent people.

Of course you do, dear.

My guess is that Lord Barracks O’Bomber will give them a massive bailout…because the “free and fair” press is essential to our democracy, don’t ya know.

MFers all of them.

Of course, Investors Business Daily won’t get any of that bailout money.

You know what else is disgusting about you pig? Your screen name, it’s offensive and rude. Obama trolls are vulgar, disgusting pigs.

Some of this may be coming from the Ted Stevens wing of the Republican party. The man has been convicted but refuses to step down. This is the entrenched good-ole-boy network Palin took on. I expect the attacks to get worse. McCain coming to Palin’s defense? Don’t hold your breath.

Maybe we should apply the “ignore-rule” for Burbank Widow. And others, that are a waist of time.

That’s “Crippled Burbank Widow”. See my lecture series “Let Ignorance Be Your Calling Card”.

It just blows my mind that the jerk already stole the election and we’re stuck trying to fight for America. Then the freak sends out his army of low level IQ TROLLZ. Kind of shows who our “President Select” really is.

I’m not going to reply to your inane BS anymore. You’re a loser like your BOSS. Good luck with the crappy life you are about to get scumbag. Buh bye TROLL.

yep, don’t feed it and it will slither away

OH MY GOD You are correct. On 11/5 the pick 3 in the Illinois State Lottery was 666. ROFLMAO. The Anti-Christ is upon is…like we didn’t already know.

Well Fluffy Bunny I reside in the mildly fascist state of Texas and the Arts are considered a sort of non essential ( especially when compared to Football…chuckle…)
I have never considered teaching in the secondary schools as the legitimate classical curriculum would be so heavily censored by concerned and ignorant puritans that it is pointless to even engage…Better to wait until the young artists achieve adult status and introduce the rigorous classical curriculum ( It’s hard to teach figurative drawing if the models are aways clothed…and teaching aesthetics is impossible to do in a politically correct way…chuckle…)
As it is I have never fallen into what was fashionable…And so gave up on the Trendy Galleries since my ART wasn’t correctly tribal…And have given up on the college/University system since a classical curriculum with it’s attendant demands are not popular with students who expect to say deep and profoundly interesting things at 18 and hve no need to learn such disciplines as drawing and painting…much less anatomy…
Why bother?…We have Anime and Graphic novels…chuckle ( comic books in my day ) passes for avant guard literature…( sigh )

I’ll see what develops…chuckle…But I’m not holdin my breath…

The good news is this…Barky and his movement have been very inspirational…I have been making some fine pieces that Barky and his fascists would probably classify as DEGENERATE…FASCISM IS SO INSPRIRATIONAL…

IMHO, the democrat PUMAs are now getting a taste of what it’s been like over the past decade + being a pro-choice and pro-gay rights republican. For that whole time, I’ve watched so-called “conservative opinion leaders” like Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter savage good people like Christie Todd Whitman and Rudy Giuliani and John McCain as RINOs simply because they aren’t obsessed with what people do in the bedroom and women do with their bodies.

No matter that McCain has a 100% anti-abortion voting record…because he’s not a spittle-flecked screamer on abortion and other issues cherished by Coulter and her ilk, he’s a RINO. Coulter announced in Feb 2007 at CPAC that she would never support Giuliani or McCain. And she has legions of drolling males who worship her on the right, and to around extolling her virtues and “hotness.” I’m female, but I’ve never understood that.

I think the RINO screamers are now going to mount a HUGE effort to purge the rest of the impure from the GOP…I’ve already heard lots of that on talk radio–Levin and Beck et al screaming “NO MORE MODERATES, NO MORE RINOS” etc. That’s why I have said that I am not terribly optimistic that the GOP will get behind inclusive candidates that PUMAs can support for 2010. I really do hope I’m wrong…..
Anyway, sorry for the OT ramble.

I had no idea that anyone in the press was being biased against McCain. Thank goodness the Washington Post did this analysis or we would have never known. Gee, I wonder if any of the rest of the media was biased…..Nah,probably not.

Burbank, get your sad azz over to a site that cares about Obama. Barack, Barrack, Baraqui, Butthead,…we’ll call it as we see it.

I am not a high school graduate, yet have the sense to realize that how we express ourselves in print is important.

Before writing again, think about this. No one is going to take you seriously until you do, and act on what you’ve learned.

Together4us.com

whoops, double post below because I caught spelling errors and didn’t hit the red x in time…srry

Yep – leave it to the sexist, sickening ass MSM to defend a child abusing, drunk driving man & tear down a prominent, law-abiding, intelligent woman Governor.

Their demise will be like Christmas, New Year’s Eve, and the 4th of July all rolled together.

Thank goodness we have the Washington Post to tell us these things, huh? LOL

They are telling us now that BO, their candidate has won…of course. They are trying to do some “mea culpa” to recuperate their readership. Rehab. Yeah right. They did with their eyes wide open and withstood the drop in readership until their guy got in. They had purpose and so they planned it.
All the columns and interviews now looking saying yes, our “beloved readers” and right and try to look for sympathy and forgiveness are baloney; big time.

They knew this all along and waited just enough…. Disgustingly dishonest.

Let’s see. No one elected – selected – Burbank dipshyt the Grand Inquistitor of Spelling unless the new creepy dork select has imposed it. We just aren’t that into Buttcrack Obutthead.

Absolutely. Sanctimonious obots need not visit. Hmmmm, that would mean you, Burbank.

This whole Berg thing is so silly as to defy belief.
All Obama has to do is publicly produce the brith certificate as McCain did.

If Berg is right Obama’s a liar and a cheat.

If Berg is wrong then Obama seems to believe he doesn’t have to answer to the “little people”.

Either answer paints a very ugly picture of Obama’s character.

That’s why you’re asked to leave. Intelligence has nothing to do with you. The fact that you can’t read rather pointed social clues and take the hint, in fact, points to a lower IQ.

Again, leave while you still can on your own terms. By the way, where’s that country you said that pondscum Obama was going to fix? We are waiting…

Good point. Remember when the Buddhist monk gave Al Gore money publicly? The press went wild. They attached all kinds of nefarious reasons to the gesture.

Obama has no way to account for hundreds of millions. The press reaction? Yawn.

We haven’t looked at the media since the election and it makes it kind of peaceful.

No BS about Barky being the savior and no bought and paid for by Soros opinions to turn our stomachs.

Greta may be the only source outside of the internet. We would tune into Scarbrough but that irritating bytch Mika is still there.

Thank you, and thank god. First rule when you’re in a hole is to stop digging, after all. I didn’t enjoy your replies, and wonder that you kept angrily cranking them out. Sheesh, what a grouch!

I’m struggling to come up with the right word …

The cliche is, I believe, “killing us with kindness”.

Twisted much?

Obot trash is still not welcome here.

If the Pro-choice argument is a strict legal one then it is clear that restricting access is prejudicial and outside the bounds of Responsible government and veers dangerously into abuse of power. Now the religious conservatives have successfully upended this argument to say they resent their tax dollars going to fund organizations that propose access to reproductive facilities that don’t jive with their moral agenda…
And so we are at the stalemate we are in where the two factions cannot come to terms amicably.
If Women as a unified faction can unite under the legal cause and draw into this faction those who oppose giving any government too much power then I think we can return to the business of rational and effective management.
Until males are willing to concede that this is the issue then we will be stuck in the morass of fallacious quibbling…
Here’s another way to look at it.
If the federal government will enact laws to sterilize at random every 3rd male…say from the age of 13 to 75…then by all means repeal the pro-choice laws…I mean if the power of the state is going to be that intrusive then lets be fair and apply it equally to both genders and you can put any ideological dressing on it you want…

It is for this very reason that I am opposed to the death penalty… Because I am opposed to the potential abuse of power of the state over the individual. It is also not humane in terms of mechanics and impractical both financially and as a social deterrant. But that’s just my opinion…To me they are similar arguments that have gotten caught up in the sway of popular rhetoric that abandons any real logic or investigation of philosophy and is dressed up in fallacious distractions that confuse in order to achieve a tactical advantage…
Democracy like philosophy and logic is hard work…ever evolving and messy…

Again, leave while you still can

That a threat, Sonny?

That’s BS. It’s more like fascist droning.

One gaping hole in coverage involved Joe Biden, Obama’s running mate. When Gov. Sarah Palin was nominated for vice president, reporters were booking the next flight to Alaska. Some readers thought The Post went over Palin with a fine-tooth comb and neglected Biden. They are right; it was a serious omission

No, the serious omission was virtually ignoring Obama’s past. Journalism in this country is dead indeed.

Re: the birth certificate.

It’s hard for me to believe that if there is in fact no legitimate birth certificate, that one is not being forged or has been forged by the most talented artisans that money can buy. Anyone have a take on this?

The MSM has cut their own throats with Obama and they know it. They were too damn greedy & short-sighted. They saw all of that money coming from the billionaire jerks in Obama’s corner and couldn’t resist throwing away journalistic integrity for him.

The MSM thought – and still think – that they would have the luxury of reporting Obama propaganda and treating longtime, loyal customers like s— through the election cycle. They figured once they got what they wanted , then they would maybe admit just a little bit to their blatant Obama bias to try to lure back all of those loyal dollars they’ve lost.

This is the beginning of the half-assed, empty, meaningless gestures that will be popping up in the MSM for the next four years. But every time Hillary and McCain supporters see Obama, they will be reminded of 2008.

Oops – “The MSM have cut their own throats with Obama…”

My only thought is the MSM likes to build people up just to tear them down. If this was the motivation I will gladly wait for the teardown.

His middle name is Hussein. Ooops, not allowed to say that.

LOL…Gosh Fluffy I am too…I am Caholic…lol…..
Here’s how I see it.
I am pro-choice because I don’t want the government to force me to abort or sustain…I want to be able to make that decision as an individual.
I also believe that the government has a responsibility to enforce oversight as to legislation to prevent abuse from any quarter that would harm…
I also have access through my faith to a confessor…and seek solace in trying to reconcile the two…As long as I focus on the legal argument I can live with the moral consequences because I am also an American who holds dear the constitution and the Bill of Rights. And as a Roman Catholic I know to well the danger of Theocracy as well as the danger of Secular Fascism…A delicate balance we have here in America…One worth preserving…

This is our country we are talking about. Bush screwed it up for 8 years and now we are suppose to just sit back & watch as Barky finishes us off? Hell no!!

The man is an extremely well-paid journalist.
It’s his job to know.
He has interns and researchers at his beck and call. All of the major media managed to send people to Alaska but they couldn’t send them to Chicago? Right.

Y A W N ….nuff said…

Ehemmm…I politely beg to differ Buzz…If the troll is entertaining I welcome lively discourse…Of course this troll is tedious…(sigh) the quality of trolls has steadily diminished since the primaries…lol…Most are not even worth hurling Latin insults at anymore…sheeesh!

Have I got this right, that the only way I can read this WaPo chest-beater is to sign up? Guys, this is not the way NQ usually operates. What have I missed here?

Ye gods, is the press really this stupid?
No wonder their headlines and Op-Eds read worse than the tabloids. Gack.

Crippled Burbank Widow, you belittled someone because they misplelled BO’s first name…an innocent mistake. That makes you small and petty. I don’t like people who do that. You, and others like you, come here an comment everyday. You have that right, because Larry and Susan give you that right, unlike the other Obama worship blogs who don’t allow dissention.

No. This is an orchestrated effort on the part of the media to destroy Sarah Palin.

Don’t you get it? She’s dangerous to the frat party that’s been going on in D.C. for decades because she does have the political courage to expose corruption and because Washington is literlly filled with it, the Washington insiders are scared to death of her.

It’s going to be up to the us citizens to defend Sarah and stand by her, while the power elites make every effort to destroy her. We need politicians like Sarah, if we ever hope to bring “real change” in our government(and I don’t mean obama’s bullshit of I will say and do anything to get elected kind of change talk).

We should commit to always responding to any and all attacks against Sarah and continue to build up support for her, should she decide to run in 2012 or any other leadership role within the republican party, for that matter.

We have to make it clear to those in D.C. that we are not going away and we have every intention of supporting any candidate that truly speaks for the people and understands that those elected by the people are intended to serve the people and that Sarah Palin is one of those people.

BTW, I saw an interview this a.m. with Swartzennager and a CNN guy and when the Governator was asked who are the new leaders of the Republican party, he mentioned just about every new guy in the party, but never mentioned Sarah. Very telling of what women are still up against when running for higher office.

The boyz in power still haven’t learned a thing and are obviously still frightened of any woman getting elected to high office and doing the job better than they have.

Go ahead and register with confidence, Tess, they don’t want to spam you or sell your email address to marketers (they haven’t done it to me, anyway); they just want to get a sense of who’s reading the Post online.

This is an interesting article written by a sociologist on obama the narcissist

“And that’s just the beginning of the diametrically opposed reactions to Obama that have deeply divided feminists, progressives, and Democrats, and pitted friends, family members, co-workers, neighbors, networks, interest group members and officials, former political allies, as well as demographic groups against one another. One of the things that keeps us so divided is that his devotees and even many of his converts seem to know so little about him yet consistently reject information that does not fit with their trusting view of him. Many pour out unprecedented—for “progressives”—nastiness, misinformation, and hatred to demean Hillary Clinton and now Sarah Palin, and to intimidate and even threaten those who don’t agree with them. Their bullying has dominated campuses, caucuses, and the convention as well as the blogosphere and media. “Truth squads” aim to silence anything but unqualified admiration.”

http://www.lynettelong.com/my_weblog/2008/10/anatomy-of-a-di.html

Yes I agree with everything you said. And as for Arnold…he is misogynist to the nth degree.

I’m not sure what you’re talking about regarding Thomas. The Dems went “nuts” over his nomination was because (like Obama) HE WASN’T QUALIFIED. Bush the First is reported to have wanted to nominate Thomas to replace Brennan (this was in 1990) but finally decided on Souter because he worried that Thomas hadn’t had enough experience as a Federal judge. Then, when Marshall decided to retire (in 1991!), Bush the First–who had wanted Thomas a year earlier for lack of experience–decided to nominate Thomas. (Oddly enough, the main reason Bush wanted Thomas before was to avoid the appearance of TOKENISM that inevitably came up. Bush and other GOPers believed that Thomas was the only qualified Black CONSERVATIVE at the time. Sounds pretty much like “tokenism” or “affirmative action”–the latter a phrase that Thomas had long opposed.) In the end, it was actually Democrats (who were in charge of the Senate) that confirmed Thomas. (While the GOP members voted to confirm by 41-2, the Democrats voted to confirm by 11-46, for a final vote of 52-48 to confirm.)
As to your comment about “the Republ were first to put a Black man on the Supreme Court”, I think someone needs a history lesson. LBJ (a Democrat) nominated Thurgood Marshall (the BLACK man whom Thomas would replace). The Senate approved Marshall’s nomination by a 69-11 margin (which means 22 Senators didn’t vote). When the Senate met in 1967 for the vote, the Dems had 64 seats compared to the GOP’s 36. The vote was 35 Democrats, 32 GOPers to confirm (I know that only comes to 67 but the NYT source, in a list of names in the roll-call vote, only listed 67 names on the “to confirm” side) compared to 10 Democrats, 1 GOPer against.

Really.

Larry and Susan, you wanna take a good, long look at what this blog has devolved into. Compare this comment thread fulla Ku Klux Keystone Klansmen with one from a year or two ago.

All I can say is, I hope there’s some money in this for you, and that it spends well.

Well, you certainly have no right to talk. Your screen name indicates a bigotry of your own. You disgust me pig.

I have left the crippled out on purpose.

Making fun of handicapped woman is not worth repeating.

If you must blame someone for the election of Obama, let it be George W. Bush. Not only did he conduct a toxic administration for the election of another republican (even if it is McCain) he even made sure that the so-called economic melt-down happened so close to the election, there was no way McCain could have survived after that.

Actually, under the veneer of chic radicalism, the Obamacrats are neocons. I wouldn’t look for the wars to end soon, or the economy to become more egalitarian except for a few toothless reforms.

The mistake is to think the press is anything more than just another mediocre business entity, reflective of those who own it.

We make our mistake in expecting the press to advocate for the public, to act as independent thinkers, they don’t, they simply print what they’re told, they print what their bosses tell them to print, whether that boss is Cheney, or the guy who owns the Tribune.

It really doest function anymore as anything other than a flossy PR unit, it’s dull and predictable, for the most part.

But there is still some worth.

(sic)

imustprotest,

All the more reason to take Arnold on every chance we can!

If the republicans can say great things about Jyndal, the governor or louisiana, then they certainly can include Sarah with high praise, because she has been extremely successful in Alaska and has the highest approval ratings of any governor in the country. No elected official can achieve such high approval ratings from one’s constituents unless they are doing an exemplary job. Something that could never have been said about Obama while he was state senator and particularly, U.S. senator. Yet, no one questioned his “qualifications”! Such a freeking double standard and it must stop because the world cannot take any more power hungry, incompetent men!!

No matter how well a woman does, powerful men just can’t seem to acknowledge it. They’d rather destroy the world than let a woman run it, which is why our country and the world is in such dire straits right now!

That is why Clarence Thomas was attacked so vigorously. The repubs were first to put a black man on the US supreme court.

Just a slight correction.

Thurgood Marshall was the first African American appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court in 1967 by Lyndon B. Johnson.

Republicans were definitely the first to appoint an African American man AND woman (Colin Powell & Condoleezza Rice) to Secretary of State. Bill Clinton appointed the first woman (Madeleine Albright) to Secretary of State & first African American (Ronald Brown) to Secretary of Commerce.

I absolutely know where you’re coming from though.

Democrats – I realized for the first time this year – thrive and survive on keeping most minority groups (especially African Americans) strung along to retain their power. I’ll be here all day talking about that.

The Democrat party does exactly the same with women. Just look at how often “Roe vs. Wade” was thrown up in our faces for example. Fellow Dems helped to rip Hillary Clinton to shreads, then got jealous because a Republican was willing to help another intelligent, tough, charismatic woman be elected to the second-highest office in America. So they resorted to threats of losing abortion rights, losing equal pay (even though it was proven that McCain paid his women staffers MORE than Obama did his), and the ultimate boogeyman – THE ECONOMY.

Sadly, the difference is that most African American Democrats stood their ground in the party and got Obama. (Though judging by what Obama’s done in Illinois he’s not going to do a damn thing for our community.) Most women in the party, however, either backed that Obama fraud from the beginning OR buckled to the threats & pressures from the Democrat leaders and didn’t get Hillary nor Palin.

Most Democrat women have allowed themselves to be bullied & suckered yet once again:

- Obama doesn’t know nearly enough to fix the economy. And he will probably remain too arrogant to hire the people who can help to fix it.

- Obama probably won’t appoint any decent women to meaningful Cabinet positions because he seems to hate women deeply.

- Equal pay for women is dead under Obama now. He now has what he wanted – the Presidency. Through most women’s votes. His female supporters accepted the fact that his women staffers were only paid 83 cents for every dollar his male staffers were paid. So why pay women more now?

And….

- “Roe vs. Wade” will remain under serious threat. The U.S. Supreme Court is still predominately conservative, and is very likely to remain so for the next four years. Should a case make it to the Supremes that will overturn Roe (just like the D.C. handgun ban was this year), Obama can’t stop it. And he isn’t exactly crazy about women’s rights.

Ain’t is great?

Washington Post: On second thought, maybe we were a little too Pro-Obama

If I remember correctly, it was several years before some in the mainstream media starting admitting that “Yeah, we gave George W. Bush a pass”. The admissions seem to be coming a little faster this time. Maybe next time they’ll make their admissions before an election. But by then no one will be listening to them anyway.

http://www.theonion.com/content/video/obama_win_causes_obsessive

Because no have good sense to realize might make right.

And….the non-diploma holding Spelling Nazi knocks off an unreadable sentence!

Great one!

But there will be different vocabulary used to explain the theory behind policy, not neocon libertarianism but probably not radical chic. I haven’t seen this too defined yet but am curious. Axelrod is probably writing the script for this right now. I am betting that Pres Elect Obama will be kept far away from unscripted meetings with the press probably for the duration of his term, or else given a standard selection of responses, just like W was.

Haven’t heard one thing about voter fraud after the election. Huh? [scratching my head]

Yes I think he was born in Kenya and a COLB was registered in Hawaii. He’s not eligible. IMO. But the worst part is, even if I am wrong, WHY does OVomit get to get away with NOT PROVING he is eligible? WHY? WHY doesn’t someone have the ballz to say put up or shut up OVomit? This man is DESTROYING our Constitution. In fact, I bet it’s hanging in his bathroom on a rod for people to wipe their azzes with. Like his best friends Ayers, Farakhaan, Khalidi etc.

You ignorant jackazz…Exactly where is this KKK nonsense? Take your arrogant, victim troll lying scum azz elsewhere. We can say whatever we want. We know your Castro boss wants to stop free speech, because the big baby can’t stand when people tell the truth about him, but you freaks will never turn America into a Banana Republic Dictatorship. LEAVE TROLL.

Incidentally, the man’s name is “Barack”.

Who gives a s—??

We sure as hell don’t.

We don’t care about Chavez’s name either. Nor Lenin’s and Stalin’s names.

They all hated and hate capitalism and true democracy, so why should we give a damn about their names?

ADMIN: Crippled Burbank Widow is a troll. Do what thou wilst.

BROKAW: There’s a lot about him we don’t know.

And this sounds to you like a guy who’s in the tank for Obama?

You are truly a new-born fool.

Just plain stuck on stupid.

Brokaw waited until AFTER THE ELECTION to say this.

Don’t you understand that these MSM bastards LOST a serious amount of consumers kissing Obama’s fraudulent ass? And that the MSM will now go into faux “self-punishment” mode to try to lure back those consumers in the next four years?

(I can’t stand stupid people!)

Yep and the go along to get along Kennedy women…we can’t forget he’s married to one.

I have a friend who was a stand-in for a female movie star in a film Arnie producing. The entire crew was in on his little fling with one of the make-up women. The story went that cutie pie was sitting on Arnie’s lap in his directors chair canoodling, groping, to the embarrassment of many (in Hollywood that’s not easy)on the set. CP barely made it off his lap when Maria walked in to show off a new baby…the last child I believe. So, yes. I believe he’s a pig and all the stories the women told about him when he ran for Governor were true.

sorry, make that “was producing”.

No matter how well a woman does, powerful men just can’t seem to acknowledge it. They’d rather destroy the world than let a woman run it, which is why our country and the world is in such dire straits right now!

Yep i agree all the way!

Now is a good time to drag out your copy of Tom Wolfe’s “Radical Chic and Mau Mauing the Flak Catchers.” The old 60′s gray hair, Lefties will no doubt be doing cocktails, just as Lennie Bernstein did, with the Black Panthers, and now Billy and Bernadine can join in the DC social scene. How many ways can you say clueless?

Certainly the welfare kings and queens in SF in the 60′s and 70′s were able trainers and inspiration for ACORN and where they perfected their bullying tactics of the bureaucrats and flak catchers.

I’m pro choice to a point.

However, in this day and age, we should be having much much less abortions.

We have so many different kinds of contraceptives these days, including the day after pill – which I don’t consider abortion. With AIDS, we should be using more condoms.

Since I’m a woman, I’ve always felt like it should be the woman’s choice…it’s her body. But there is a baby involved, and I do think men have a right to their child too. The father of the baby might just want the child to raise.

On the other hand, let’s say the father doesn’t want the child and the mother does have the baby. The man has to give child support. If the woman doesn’t want the baby, she’ll just abort it. No child support.

Susan B Anthony was against abortions because back then she felt it was a way for men to control women. But today, isn’t it the woman that is controlling the man with it? We are talking about equal rights aren’t we? Fair to both sexes?!

This is almost 2009. We shouldn’t be having so many abortions. That should be considered “back woods….old freaky medical procedures” unless the mother is at risk.

Also, when you think about it…you could be aborting the kid who could grow up to cure cancer or something.

When I really think about the reason I’m pro choice, it’s because I knew that women were getting back alley abortions before it was legal and it was killing them. I knew it we would revert back to that.

Great post. Thanks Rob Warrior!

There was a bit of that in my local rag today as well. I really don’t care when it starts to hit them…I cancel tomorrow. If I want their bias I can read it online and not pay them for it.

Dr. King wasn’t wrong. There’s been no one to leadership in his absence. Their reaction is visceral, bypassing the brain.

sorry…no one to leadership in his absence…

Well our response should be “The American public is not interested in these false trivolities. These are just distractions from the hard work that needs to be done to make porgress” It worked for Obama. Time to use some of their methods……

“People are going to say I don’t look like the other guys on the dollar bill. They are gonna say I talk funny. Oh did I mention I’m a woman?” You betcha. Turn-about is fair play.

Because damnit “WE are the ones we have been waiting for” and “Yes We Can” put a woman in office.

Here is the race card again. I was hoping it would go away after November 4th. Looks like we can expect to see continued use of the race card any time there is criticism of the Messiah. Silly me. Why would I expect anything to change.

Barack: an arabic word meaning “blessed”.

Proper spelling above.

Have a nice day.

Howell needs to shut her trap. The Washington Post and the rest of the MSM are dead, dead, dead to me!!! Wait, where’s my steak knife?!? I’ll ask Rahm to me his.

I don’t buy this twits tepid mea culpa. The lopsided number of stories about each candidate is just the tip of the iceberg. This Howell coward doesn’t even get into the actual bias of the content, and the MSM’s consistent and calculated efforts to hide, cover up and otherwise divert attention from Obama’s questionable background, associations, lack of experience, and the Cult of Personality campaign he ran complete with millions of brainwashed drueling minions.

Methinks this is a pathetic effort to win back some of their hoards of lost readers. FAT CHANCE!!!!!!!!

The sick thing is they did this same study half way through the election, came up with the same answers and still continued down their merry little rose colored glasses way.

I canceled my WaPo subscription and made sure they knew why. Most of the newspapers are suffering. I think we should continue to cancel subscriptions to these “might have been pro-Obama” rags and be sure to send a follow-up letter to let them know why.

Well said

I’m not going to stand up for women for awhile and here’s why:

They have to eat a bit more shit so that they can wake up and smell the coffee. I’m really annoyed at all the women who voted for 0bama and trashed Hillary and Palin.

Frankly, I don’t care if 0bama names one woman to his Cabinet. Ditto AAs. I want to see exactly how much shit these people are willing to eat before they choke on it and get mad. So I won’t be putting any pressure on the president-select.

Let his true colors show.

On another thread I explained how Hillary’s staying in the race gave 0bama a pass with the msm and may very well have helped him more than any of her campaigning.

You have to give someone with this much narcisissm
and ego enough room to tear their own ass.

My initial shock/anger/despair/depression is already waning. I’m in patience mode and channeling Job.

My strategies for the time being are really pushing the post-racial/racism is over on AAs and not supporting women.

All the while watching events as they unfold and commenting as necessary.

What made me arrive at this state of mind was Republicans staying home. They didn’t want the WH this go ’round and there’s nothing we can do about that. Also, Latinos went 67% for 0bama. He also won the Jewish vote and the female vote. It wasn’t just the AA community.

What that tells me is that we were never able to make the case against him in the minds of the American voters. And without the msm, we lost.

But I’m not fooled. Pelosi’s remark about governing from the center is a clue. So was Howard Dean’s absence from the scene these last months. The Democratic Party is in disarray. Loyal Dems are not making contributions and so they are going to have to rely on these new voters. Pelosi, Dean, et al, know that the big money donors that bundled money are not their bread and butter. They will go whichever way the wind blows.

It was a tough and bitter pill to swallow at first, but 0bama’s first decisions made the pill digest a whole lot easier. Picking all these Clinton people is hilarious. CHANGE! LMAO!

I’m going to find one of those ‘change’ signs, wait and when everything goes south hang it in my window for laughs.

Yes, this is going to be good.

Just wait.

Don’t be conned once again.

They’re LOSING MONEY!

They’re trying to get some of you back.

I go to the public library to read the paper. Inconvenient? War is inconvenient and this is war!

THURGOOD MARSHALL was the first AA on the Supreme Court.

Good grief!

I guess you think Africa is a country.

Sure they’ve noticed the drop reader and viewership.

Right now, AAs and Botheads are buying up newspapers hungry for photos and news of B0. But that will surely end.

Hang in there.

Patience is required from here on.

Just hold on!

OH. MY. GOD!

The Rose-Brokaw interview was conducted on the 30th of October. The election was on the 4th of November.

Which event occurred earliest? A calendar may help you to decide. If you don’t know what a calendar is, get Mommy to show you one.

get out of here pig.

The argument against abortion is neither religious nor fallacious. In fact, your argument in favor of abortion rights is a fallacious. Trying to frame it as a women’s rights issue or an issue of “choice” is the true distraction. The issue of abortion is about life and death of an innocent human being, not CHOICE or WOMEN’S EQUALITY. If the unborn child is human, then abortion is murder. There are laws against murder in every state and they are not framed as “religious” based laws. People are not given a “choice” if they want to murder their spouse or neighbor, etc. Furthermore nobody with any intelligence would make the argument that murder should be a choice because not allowing it would be the same as forcing people to murder each other. Your entire post is complete nonsense.

Hmmm…if Obama proves to be ineligible and Biden becomes prez, guess who becomes veep? That could go a long way toward explaining Pelosi’s alliance with Plastic Jesus.

Mimi. Brilliant and Perceptive.

Wait till these Obama Girls find out that the attitude of the president rolls downhill into the workplace. Just like shit. Then they will Get It. I shall enjoy watching it.

“Crippled Burbank Widow” is probably some guy from Gaza whose name cannot be pronounced without spitting up half of one’s lung.

Hillary Clinton took far more hits than Sarah Palin has even encountered thus far.
From the C word, the B word, pimping Chelsea, everything was up for grabs.
It doesnt make it any less wrong when it is done to Hillary, Sarah or ourselves.
We thought we had overcome much of the ugliness that came to the forefront during this election. We thought that those men who are in power would be role models to our nation of young men, they failed miserably, nothing has changed.
Although it was ugly and hard to look at, it has told us much about the types of men and women we are electing to run our government.
If we cant count on our own leaders to say enough is enough, stop this sexism, stop tearing down those women who have done so much for our country, some much more than any man we have put into office, yet by their silence they condoned those actions.
We could not even count on our women in office to stand up for women.
We need to rid our government of all those who are too busy working on their own agendas to speak up.
We need to make the DNC accountable, the MSM accountable, and our government officials accountable. We can do this by voting them out of office one by one, turning off our televisions and not watching those stations that condoned and even got a kick out of this sexist behavior.
We need to quit buying those publications that printed those words that our most prominent women were called.
We have the power, lets use it before Obama takes our rights away one by one, and we no longer recognize our Constitution.

Personally, I hope they dare try to go forward with the fairness doctrine.

We now have documented the unfairness. It will blast the editorial policies of every major news media RIGHT OUTTA THE WATER.

Fox turned out to offer more balance than any of them did.

So go ahead. Bring it on.
