A "shocking" twist: The media lies to us!

This was a cute read.

Quote:

Oct. 9, 2009 | "Better late than never" isn't always true, but public candor from people and institutions that have misled us for many years can be refreshing -- and sometimes even liberating.

...

At this late date, it is scarcely radical to suggest that Whitewater and all the other "scandals" deployed by the Washington press corps to besiege the Clinton White House (before the Lewinsky affair) were without substance. In the pages of the New York Times and the Washington Post, which created and promoted those stories, even such media mandarins as Thomas Friedman and Evan Thomas now casually assure us that they were overblown, even "bogus." And former New Republic editor Andrew Sullivan today admits that the famous takedown of the Clinton healthcare reforms he published in 1994, Betsy McCaughey's "No Exit," was essentially a fake too.

So yeah, it's not really that shocking. It is kind of funny to see the media machine gearing up for round two against Obama this time instead of Clinton though.

Also, bonus link from the article. It looks as though the Right is building for another round of Impeachment! Oh what fun we'll have!

Quote:

Like so many on the far-left before him, going all the way back to Karl Marx, he believes that it's his mission to promote "equality of outcome" over "equality of opportunity." This worldview makes Barack Hussein Obama a very dangerous man, and a threat to your personal liberty.

Worldview explains why he has gobbled-up major banks and why the government now controls more and more of our money. And if you wake up one day to discover you're broke, don't be surprised. Barack Hussein Obama is Bernie Madoff with the political power of the presidency at his disposal.

Worldview explains why Obama intends to take away your freedom to choose your own doctor and your own treatment. Wherever government controls health care, bureaucrats decide who gets treatments, transplants, dialysis and costly medication.

The groundswell of calls for the impeachment of Barack Hussein Obama is growing.

I really wish my faith in humanity wasn't such a roller coaster ride. At least when Dubya was in office, I knew exactly where I stood: against him with seemingly the rest of America, sick of the lies and war and everything else.

Now Obama is in office and the nutjobs are getting vocal in ways that seems apt to make me wonder how these people can breathe with their inane stupidity or whether they refuse to wipe their asses with anything not stained by the blood, sweat, and tears of the unfortunate either figuratively or literally as they burn a briefcase of large bills.

Seriously, I know America as a whole, or at least as a majority, is smarter, wiser, and more sensible than that, but it seems the wackos are getting all the air time. If news agencies want to make amends, they should leave those people to shrivel impotently in a corner.

Yeah but some people actually believe it to be true. I swear it's almost as entertaining as Reality TV*.

It makes a good case for turning sheep into gyros.

I can't work out whether this "narcissistic" talking point they're hammering away at now is code for "uppity black" or just "not completely fucking stupid". Probably both I guess.

It's extremely similar to when they used to call him 'elitist' during the campaign.

My favorite rebuttal is this:

I know that elite is a "bad word" in politics, and you want to go bowling and "throw back" a few beers, but the job you're applying for, if you get it and it goes well, THEY MIGHT CARVE YOUR HEAD INTO A MOUNTAIN. If you don't actually think you're better than us, then WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?

I should dig out that Get Your War On I used to sig-quote.

Maybe just image-sig the whole thing.

Ah-ha. I agree, but if you think that's bad, then read Convervapedia's article on Barack Obama. It's hilarious until you realize they're serious.
