I have seen several comments here, emails and posts around the blogs pointing out how the MSM would have picked at least 10 overt lies from Obama in the latest debate and ran them on page one had McCain or Palin said the same thing.<\/p>\n
While this is no doubt true it is important to note the why. The press is a frighteningly liberal institution so they clearly have a dog in the fight.<\/p>\n
On policy there was never a distinctive difference between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. So why did they all seem to jump on the Obama wagon so quickly?<\/p>\n
The simple answer is the narrative. A black president \u201cfeels\u201d so good to guilt ridden liberals that it was irresistible to the press. Obama is adored around the world (including the terrorist who want to kill us). This is particularly true in Europe where liberals look for approval.<\/p>\n
Not all Europe is on the Obama train as Melanie Phillips <\/a>points out. No responsible media outlet that has endorsed Obama can explain why a man running for president is getting such a free pass.<\/p>\n Barack Obama appears to sit on a nexus between Marxist revolutionary activists, unrepentant former terrorists, Black Power racists, Chicago mobsters \u2013 oh, and a Saudi who is trying to buy up America. If you were to turn up at US immigration control with a background of such associates, it\u2019s a fair bet they wouldn\u2019t let you off the air-bridge. Yet this man may well become President of the US! If any other candidate had had merely a fleeting relationship with William Ayers, his candidacy would have been terminated before it was even articulated — let alone what we now know about Obama\u2019s key role in Ayers\u2019s CAC and its funding of radical groups; let alone the fact that Obama had been mentored during his formative years by a Communist Party plant; let alone his work for organisations modelled on the seditious philosophy of Saul Alinsky; let alone his two-decade membership of a Black Power church; let alone his relationship with fraudster Tony Rezko.<\/p>\n And yet despite all of this, virtually no-one in the mainstream media is asking any questions. Has there ever been a more staggering, surreal and scary race to the White House?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
