Obama orgy

The blatant bias of the major national news media toward Barack Obama is now so overwhelming that it would not be worth noting, except that the election of a President of the United States is involved. It is a propaganda blitz that would make the Kremlin blush.
By election day, we fully expect John McCain to be vilified as a Vietnam-era war criminal and worse. But that is only if the networks and other major media can tear themselves away from their Obama orgy.
A recent report found that since June the nightly newscasts of NBC, CBS, and ABC combined have spent 114 minutes covering Obama. McCain got 48 minutes.
But that was before this week.
The three major television networks are all scheduled to send their nightly news star "anchors'' to follow Obama on his trip to Iraq and the Middle East.
When was the last time you saw ANY of the networks do this with Sen. McCain?
If you can't recall, it is because it hasn't happened. McCain, who knows and understands and is intimately familiar with Iraq and Mideast issues, has been there many times, with little fanfare.
It is because he understands these issues that he was able to argue so effectively for the surge that has dramatically improved the Iraqi situation.
The outrageous imbalance in the major media's coverage of the candidates means that the American people are going to have to work doubly hard to make the right choice in these perilous times.

I do appreciate that some people truly like the guy.
Here is the thing people - what if it were reversed, and it will be one day. What will you scream and how loud? What if a Republican candidate goes on World Tour 2008 and has dozens of photo ops? What will you scream at that time?
Remember. It started with Obama. What happens from this date forward on issues of campaigns, all started way back in July 2008. Remember.
