WHY is whackjob Dobson CNN's ***TOP STORY*** at the moment?
He's just some blowhard with an opinion, out to slander a political candidate. Should everyone who falls in that category get free international exposure through CNN ? Is CNN trying as hard to defeat Obama as they did to sink Gore ? The least we can do is to respond to CNN's push-poll "Did Obama distort the Bible"?

1. The irony of Dobson saying Obama is twisting religious sayings..
to manipulate the masses is just too funny when you think about it.

5. this is GREAT!
the vast majority of murikans who actually hear dobson spew, know he is a crazy-assed moron. those who don't and ignore him, won't matter. Those who know nothing, and who DO look into him will see the same crazy-assed moron, and think, what ever that madman says, I will do the opposite.

8. EXACTLY...and it's why the task is Sysyphian
corporate media marches in lockstep

they're the gatekeepers

they determine what people see on the 'news'

and the ravings of a modern day Savonarola are not newsworthy from any standpoint

10. It was sadly rhetorical. I had thought CNN bottomed out awhile ago ...
but every time they show a glimmer of returning to sanity, they follow up with something abyssmal.

9. They Will Be Working MUCH HARDER to Defeat Obama Than They Did Against Gore or Kerry
