CNBC: Obama is innocent until proven guilty
WTF??? What kind of comment was that?


Head CNBC host says he's giving Obama a Honeymoon and that Obama is innocent until proven guilty.

1. The press usually lays off the president for his first 3 months in office
Bush was unique because the press gave him an extended 6-year honeymoon.

2. Corporate America Decides who is Guilty and Who Isn't...
it's pretty clear to me why they said what they did.

3. That is why the fucking Corporate media has to go.......
They have abused any power they had, and where we are is largely due to that.

If only they had not pushed Bush on us, we'd be in a whole different place!

4. It is an EXCELLENT comment.
Edited on Mon Nov-24-08 07:48 PM by Amerigo Vespucci
You must have read the barrage of headlines stating that Obama hasn't "taken command" of the economy.

Four simple words to respond to that: "HE ISN'T PRESIDENT YET."

Until Obama is INAUGURATED as PRESIDENT, NONE of this is HIS "responsibility."

The media has attempted to play a different game, saying he hasn't stepped up.

He CANNOT "step up" until the current "Alcoholic-In-Chief" steps DOWN.

Don't overreact, my friend.

It's what's known as a "left-handed compliment"...

The "Obama Honeymoon" refers to the fact that the media LOVES him because he isn't Bush.

When he takes office, he'll succeed or fail. NO middle ground.

The CNBC comment merely states "GIVE HIM A CHANCE."

I can get behind that.

:patriot:

he is guilty until proven innocent!! That's the way it works, unless your a Republican. God I hope the Justice System in this country gets a make-over.
