BREAKING HARD!!!! JUST ANNOUNCED ON MSNBC!
Many people in the recent poll showing that Obama wasn't significantly hurt by the Wright scandal didn't even know who Rev. Wright was!

Well, I guess the "journalists" at MSNBC have their work cut out for them, don't they? Obviously, it's time to step up to 24/7 Wright coverage starting today. Sure they've been doing 12/7 coverage, but that's not working.

Next, look for their corporate name to change to Wright All the Time Network. Got to get control of the Wright brand now.

2. The real purpose is to keep any Dem out of the WH.
Sometimes I wonder how this country will survive.

16. Of course it is
If it wasn't this, it would be something else. Look what they did to Kerry. They would do the same to Hillary, and anyone who thinks otherwise is in denial. So in a way, since they've started early, it gives the Dems more time to fight back against a very predictable game plan. The question now is, will they come together and fight back?

25. I beg to differ.
The real purpose is to keep any candidate who does not represent the interests of the corporate overclass out of the White House. Obama is a genuine threat; Hillary is their ace in the hole.

8. I watched all morning shows today. Only Today had a big story on Wright
Not Good Morning America or that CBS Morning show. GE wants to make sure whoever we nominate is damaged goods.

9. Tucker Carlson was just on MSNBC talking about Wright
Talking about the Italian and Jewish articles discovered in his magazine and the first time around Wright didn't hurt Obama much but the second time around it is going to be worse for Obama.

13. Well, you see, Iraq just doesn't RATE well...
It's been 5 years and Americans are, well, sick of it.

And there's really no use telling people what they don't want to hear, is there?

:sarcasm:

12. Obama Support GROWS Beyond Media Influence!!
Media hacks will no longer control our elections.

A big change is coming in November unlike any election since JFK. I'll call it the BIG SPRING CLEANING!!! Its time for the American voter, the American people to take back our country out of the hands of idiots.

Obama can save America. Obama simply gets it. He sees the big picture. This is why we need him as president.

26. ENOUGH with this age-ist CRAP. I'm no spring chicken, and I support Obama.


read the post "The Secret Ingredient in "Kool-aid".

This age-ist shit is out of line.

They are trying to "educate" the people.

17. The guest pointed out that Billy Graham made anti-semantic
Edited on Thu Mar-27-08 01:09 PM by senseandsensibility
remarks, and he is the Clintons' minister. I didn't hear her mention that he is also chimp's minister and all the republicans' too. I hope I heard that correctly about Graham. If not, I will edit, so please correct me. Still, I was glad to hear some balance in the coverage, not that I expect it to continue.

20. Yeah she did but Billy Graham isn't Clinton's minister
She goes to a methodist church and when the lady said Graham I was gonna say he isn't Clinton's personal minister.

27. They have a long time and ongoing relationship
which is too bad because Graham is as corrupt as they come in addition to being antiSemitic. The Clintons made a big deal out of calling him to the White House for counselling during MonicaGate.

24. Some old black guy said something months ago
that every white person in America should be upset about today.

And somehow it's supposed to be Barack's fault. Shame on you all for not following the MSM script!

28. Let's forget about the war, and oil prices, and the economy
and falling home prices. Let's just talk about Wright nonstop!!

I really wish I could move to another country. If I was a hermit with no ties I would.
