Excerpt:
Voters rejected one of Barack Obama's hand-picked candidates and forced another into a runoff,
the latest sign that his political capital is slipping beneath a wave of anti-establishment anger.

I smell horseshit - do you?

This is pure crappola from a whore media whose predictions were wrong - again.
Specter is an opportinustic prick who lost as a Rethug so he turned backstabber-traitor.
Big surprise that Pennsylvania is tired of this prick after almost 40 years.

The whore media said this was going to be a slaughter for incumbents (read Democrats)
But that didn't happen so they're trying to make you think it did.

Specter became the fourth Democrat in seven months to lose a high-profile race despite Obama's involvement,
raising doubts about Obama's ability to help fellow Democrats in this November's elections.

But asshole, Specter was a Dem in name only - he was homeless until Obama USED him to get health care passed.
Now that we got that, we don't need him anymore so this means nothing.
Besides, he lost to a better Democrat - a REAL Democrat - so where are these terrible losses you claim to see?

Specter's loss cast doubts on Obama's influence and popularity even within his own party
— and in a battleground state, no less.

B.F.D. - We don't care if the older-than-McCain Rethug pulled a Lieberman on the GOP.
The Democrats lost NOTHING last night - put that in your headlines, you liars.

Of course, it's possible that Democrats will fare better than expected this fall.

But we won't read that in our whore media is we do.
We could GAIN seats in the House and Senate and your whore headlines would scream,
"Another defeat for Obama," which is one big reason why you bastards are going out of business.
We don't trust you.

"We're licking our chops at running against President Obama," said Rand Paul, Teabagger victor in Kentucky.
Paul told CNN on Wednesday he'd relish Obama's campaigning on behalf of Democrat Jack Conway.
Obama's agenda, Paul said, is "so far to the left, he's not popular in Kentucky."

But that's not the story.
Obama, a Black man, is not going to be popular in states that fought for slavery in the Civil War.
How fucking dumb do you have to be to miss that obvious fact?

The story is Mitch the Bitch's hand-picked boy lost BIG-time and that makes the GOP the losers.
Mitch the Bitch and the Rethugs got screwed by the Teabaggers - where is the headline for that?

Why can't the whores at the Whore AP tell the truth?

We also won in Western Pennsylvania — and in a battleground state, no less.
The Democrats kept Jack Murtha's seat - you need to suck on that fact for a while.

Creating another bruise for Obama, Sen. Blanche Lincoln was forced into a runoff in Arkansas.
Obama supports her bid for a third term,.

To hear the whore media lie, Obama is all bruised up today?
Blanche Lincoln did all she could to block health care so a REAL Democrat ran against her.
Maybe she'll survive, maybe she won't, but Obama is for her IN NAME ONLY.

The Democrats had a great night last night.
This Babington clown-writer better not be a gambler because I have my wallet out.

Between now and November, two things are almost certain:
The economy is going to be much better than it is now and
Tar balls are going to start showing up on once-beautiful beaches in Texas,
Louisiana, Mississppi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia and the Carolinas.

You think those states are going to come out and vote big for "Drill, Baby, Drill?"
If you think Nevada, Cali and Arizona saw housing prices plunge,
just try to sell a luxury beach house on the Gulf of BP.

No matter how many times the whore media screams "Teabaggers rule,"

I'm betting they can't do shit in the states that WON the Civil War ...so fuck 'em.

1. Way to Rant, Bart!

"..No matter how many times the whore media screams "Teabaggers rule,"

2. Look - if you can...

Drop a couple of nickels in old Bart's hat.
NO ONE (hear me?) NO ONE has been doing this longer than him so hook him up if you feel so inclined.

We need his hammer swinging.

Thanks!

5. "NO ONE has been doing this longer than him..."

Literally true, I think. I first started reading his rants before there was a web to speak of, when he was posting his newsletter on Usenet groups. I've always felt kind of grateful to him, because what was going on otherwise was a nonstop snarl of proto-freeperism.

6. BartCop has fought for us longer, harder and BETTER than any other liberal.

Bart has been on the Internets since 1996, plugging away, providing the sharpest insight and most lively (and funny) commentary of any public figure in America. If he were a right-wing nutjob instead of a fighting liberal, he'd have three radio shows, four columns, and his own hour-long, daily program on FOX.

He'd also be a ubiquitous guest on all the talk shows.

But since he's a liberal and since the media is run by the right-wing, he stays below the radar.

3. And Bartcop, for those unfamiliar, is no knee-jerk Obama cheerleader n/t

[SeattleGirl]

4. The M$M for the most part dropped facts and fact-checking

long ago. About the only news people I watch any more are Olbermann and Maddow, because the rest of them are two busy lying all the time. Yes, Olbermann and Maddow express opinions on their shows, but they identify them as opinions; when they report the news, they report the facts.

I can't stand the other bastards. They decided they wanted to play puppet masters, and are doing everything they can to pull our strings.

9. thanks for this

10. I agree, but with one minor historical correction.

Kentucky was a slave state, as of the start of the Civil War, but it didn't fight for slavery (i.e., it didn't join the Confederacy). There was a rebel government that tried to displace the prewar government and declare the state to be part of the Confederacy, but it never controlled Kentucky and functioned largely in exile.

One consequence, incidentally, was that the Emancipation Proclamation, which freed slaves in the states in rebellion, didn't apply to Kentucky. Kentucky slaveholders continued to own their "property" even after the war ended. That situation continued until the ratification of the Thirteenth Amendment in December, 1865. Thus, Kentucky had legal slaves longer than places like Alabama did, which of course supports the point made in the OP.

12. Terry is a true blue Democrat

I remember him from the Rush Limbaugh bbs at the old Prodigy network. He coined the term 'Pigboy' in describing Limbaugh.
