Warren Buffett IS advising Obama on the Economy. Why don't the Dumbass Pundits know this? |

1. They know it, but admitting it would make McCain look bad |
|
They consider anything that makes McCain look bad a violation of fairness.
(Dont expect the same fairness when its Obama they try to make look bad...)

McCain has Fiorina and The Trumpster!
One is a woman fired from her CEO job after a controversial merger, thousands of lost jobs, and a stock nosedive.
One is an overblown, overhyped egotist that has declared bankruptcy in the real estate/casino/financial markets 3 times.
Good job!
:sarcasm:

5. The same reason they didn't want public to know he supported Kerry. Iaccoca came out in 2004 |
|
and made a big deal about slamming Bush who he said he wished he'd never endorsed, then endorsed Kerry and newsmedia couldn't find any news in that....though, previously, it was common to find Iaccoca on many of the news shows......till he ditched Bush.
I fully expect newsmedia will downplay or ignore outright Buffett's support for Obama.

12. Yes...he should. And it will still be up to newsroom producers how heavy a rotation the clip |
|
gets played.
At least we have advanced SOMEWHAT in the media since 2004....even a 10% difference can make all the difference in the world, and with Olbermann and Maddow, we have that now. Plus...the public isn't completely buying what corpmedia's selling these days, anyway. heheh...and THAT is good for our side.

15. What's worse is that McCain is trying to name drop using Warren Buffet |
|
because McCain's been trying to tout a bipartisan panel to be in charge of the bailout money (which I do think might be advisable) but the people he suggests are Warren Buffet, Mitt Romney and Mike Bloomberg. Seriously, that's a fucked up list-- MITT ROMNEY!?!?!? Secondly, it gives the impression that he's in talks with Warren Buffet too when he's obviously not. So McCain's basically trying to mooch off of Buffet's good name. It's just fucking retarded.
