The Media is letting McCain get away with fucking murder!

Here, he tells a reporter who asks him about his "bomb Iran" joke to "get a life." If Obama or Clinton said ANYTHING remotely similar like that they would be finished.

Whatever candidate wins the nomination, I hope they find a way to disassemble the corporate media.

9. Isn't it funny
that both Repubs and Dems scream that the press is biased for the other side?

2. It'll be tough to battle the MSM.
McSame takes a lot of money from telecoms so he'll be willing to do their biding.
They'll back him all the way and it pisses me off.

3. Dan Abrams has started a segment on his show called "Teflon John"
in regards to this phenomenon. The media loves McCain and he can do no wrong. When he does something wrong they explain it away for him or just simply ignore it to begin with.

5. Since you've been in a coma for the last 8 years, please allow me to catch you up.
1. The elections are rigged by the GOP.
2. The media is complicit with the GOP.
3. The US Military/Industrial complex now runs the country, and the global economy.
4. The American democracy experiment was corrupted by greed, as are all governments, eventually.
5. now, go out and buy something. On credit. Thanks.

10. It goes like this: "O, Ca-na-da.......My home and native land...."
I wish I knew. Electing Obama might be a good place to start.

6. No, we are letting him get away with it.
And it's going to go on until we have a nominee.

8. McCain is his on worst enemy.
Nobody cares what McCain is presently doing or where he travels. If you ask a random person on the street what McCain did this week
very few if anybody would even know, much less care. Odds are that the same random person would know who Obama and Hillary are.
The sad thing is that uninformed people vote. :dem:

11. McCain says he didn't have sex with that woman
and that's the end of it. The great McCain has spoken...No more questions, he won't talk of it further. Let Obama or Clinton try that.
