CNN is really trying to soften up Obama for Hillary tonight.

[Whisp]

right now that braying jockass radio guy screaming Barrack Hussein Obama over and over. Early on they said that Hillary has been so criticised in the media while Obama has been getting away from it with being so popular - so they had to list everything from Rezko to who knows what - no details of course, just the some people say shit.

[Thrill]

1. Clinton News Network

[NastyRiffraff]

13. Hmm...where have we heard that before?

"Clinton News Network." Oh yes. An old RW characterization from the '90s, repeated again and again by the likes of Drudge, Michele Malkin, etc. etc.

It's amazing how many wingnut talking points are being repeated approvingly here.

[Radical Activist]

26. The era of big government is over

Amazing how many right with talking points and policy programs we've seen from Bill and Hillary over the years. Time to move on.

[AX10]

2. BS.

The media has done nothing but tear down HRC and build up Obama.

[Whisp]

8. she embarrasses herself and gets the attention.

what is so surprising about that.
and let's not forget how fawned over she was last fall - the inevitable glowing one.

there isn't much to tear down Obama with because he conducts himself with respect, for himself and others, so now they are starting to use the Clinton's talking points list.

[woolldog]

9. Not CNN

[Whisp]

3. lots of 'nicey nice' coverage of her.

the sane soft spoken Sybil is now talking.

[Dogmudgeon]

4. It all sucks

The media beating up an Hillary AND Obama ... the playing of favorites, and the playing of loyalties ... it's all shit.

The irony is that the candidates have been very low-key in their attacks; even the recent stuff from Hillary is more smoke than fire.

The surrogates are nasty, but the press is absolutely evil about this.

--p!

[meow mix]

5. when will they learn its not working?

:shrug:

[high density]

6. MSNBC playing Raygun clips

LOL

[FrenchieCat]

7. I don't believe that they have been soft on Obama by any stretch.......

because had Obama come in third in Iowa, he would not have been heard from again.

The media has also let slide this 35 years of experience......although I have yet to see a comprehensive list of what all of this experience is about. Hillary with no National Security Clearance or sitting on NS meeting "thinks" she knows stuff....but didn't know enough to know that Iraq was not an imminent threat. Do they push that view? Hell Naw!

and in fact, Folks still don't know what Obama has accomplished (and it is plenty) because the Media won't tell folks.

But any excuse is a good one for them, I guess.

[Whisp]

17. the knives will be out for Obama tonight, from all sides.

those two 'moderators' (ha!) will pile on, and pre-debate will have all sorts of 'nice' hillary spots and more 'questions' about Obama to set the tone for the ambush.

Hillary will be poking Obama with every sharp stick she thinks she has and he will react as usual, cool and unaffected by the bait and turn the debate around to the issues instead of her pointy fluffs, and that will drive her even crazier. She wants him to lose it, that's the only thing she has going for her now, if Barack does something completely out of character in this debate.

but that dude is as cool as you can get in this mud wrestling arena of politics, and is well prepared not to give her what she so desires.

[quinnox]

10. Barak Hussein Obama has been coddled

When the media turns on him it will be a spectacle, hello President McCain.

[FrenchieCat]

11. Keep wishing.......

you remind me of those who hoped that Iraq would go badly just to make a political point.

[AX10]

12. Actually, that was all of you people on the left...

like Sean Penn who wanted Iraq to fail, just to prove a point.

[Capn Sunshine]

14. "YOU people on the left" ????

is that a TELL or what?
Howdy, Freeper.

[PM Martin]

19. Uh, the poster can't be a freeper.

They have over 1000 posts. They could not have made it this far and be a right winger around here.
Just sayin'

[charlie]

35. Not so

It's happened plenty of times before.

Just sayin'

[Capn Sunshine]

37. says the poster with 100 posts

Just sayin'

[quinnox]

18. no politician is a savior or

can snap his fingers and magically make the world a paradise. It sucks but its reality.

[PM Martin]

25. I agree.

But I see Obama as the stronger candidate in fall election.
I still like Hillary too and if you get a Hillary/Obama ticket, that would be just wonderful.
You guys should win the election, just because the Republican party is in such a mess at this time.
:kick:

[cali]

15. nah. he's very, very deft at handling stuff- unlike hilly who blows

every opportunity. And the press has been trying the past couple of weeks to rough him up. They'll try harder, but unlike the disasterous hilly, he knows how to deal with it. thank god she won't be the nominee. Only hilly comes off as less likable than McCain.

[spotbird]

22. That's the Republican talking point

it's hard to tell the difference anymore.

[Forkboy]

23. Quinnox has always used them.

You'll get used to it.

[JackORoses]

30. the political career of Hillary is completely crippled

Call Obama all the names you want.
It will not put Hillary Dumpty back together again.

[quinnox]

33. what names

Unless you consider his middle name bad.

[JackORoses]

36. I consider Hillary's name dirt,

and I am delighted that after another week, I will hear it less and less and less...

[Jersey Devil]

16. Did he explain that "Hussein" means "anti-Christ" on the planet Nebulon?

I believe the name Hussein literally translated means "handsome" or "small handsome one" and is also used in certain areas of the Middle East to denote royal status (in Jordan) and in other areas that a person is prominent in their community.

[THUNDER HANDS]

20. SNL got to them

[Jane Austin]

21. And over on MSNBC

David Gregory is doing his daily listing of Clinton talking points against Obama.

He has a way of over-simplifying positions so it looks like the Clinton spin is true.

[Whisp]

27. noticed that.

they take the Clinton campaign slur list and make it look like it's a 'report'.

[PM Martin]

29. What did they say?

I can't get that channel.

[catgirl]

24. I've noticed that too

And they keep saying that everyone thinks the two are the "dream ticket". Huh?
Every time they say that, my gag reflexes almost act up. Btw, what time is that
debate? I'm having a glass of wine to temper myself. I get so aggravated by HRC,
that I go and donate large sums (well, in my book, large sums) of money to Obama.
That happen to anyone else? LOL.

[PM Martin]

28. Why would it not be a dream ticket?

[catgirl]

Hillary as a VP?

Where do I begin? But your question will just lead this to a flame thread, so
I won't even go there. Yikes.

[Whisp]

32. yes, wish that 'dream ticket' talk would shut up.

ugh.
and notice how they reports of
'attacking each other' and whatever other descriptions they give to the 'fighting' - makes it sound like Obama is at the bottom of the slew in his conduct like Hillary is.
He defends her attacks in a reasonable and adult manner, yet is an equal force of nasty according to them.

ugh.

debate is on at 8:00 central, not sure.

[Ichingcarpenter]

31. Ratings...the longer the battle the better their ratings

CNN leans Hillary more and MSNBC leans Obama
neither network is on the Democrats side when
push comes to shove.

Keith, no matter what you think
is the only one that has spoken out against
the crimes of this regime.

[Whisp]

34. jockass clip coming up, Yet Again.

introduced breathily by the Toilet Brush Face Blitzer.
