fueling the flames?

They are the ones trying to divide the party

The truth is that the corporate interests know they are screwed if a Democrat wins, and they will incite whatever they need to in order to get a mccain victory

Face it, what have they done to mccain?

When the Wright issue came out, for weeks they ran it. When hagee's bullshit came out, within 48 hours it was over

Even this RFK bullshit, the media is throwing as much fuel into the flames as it can

Keep in mind who benefits the most if the Democrats lose the WhiteHouse

1. It appears to me that most claims about Dividers are made by and about anonymous posters on the inte
rnet.

5. People need to learn to recognize the multifarious motives that anonymous others can have and
get over it, rather than dancing to their tunes.

2. The bullshit is the Clinton campaign trying to waltz away from this... She was over the top...
and anyone that has listened to the video knows that. Do they come right out and do an apology? No, they try and blame the Obama camp for there fuck up... Duh

4. Fine, and that is between US, but it is also being encouraged by other forces
In all honesty, why didn't the media give the same crap to mccain that they gave to Obama over their respective preachers?

There is more to this than meets the eye in my view

6. The corporate media would be just as happy with Hillary
which is why they've done nothing but use her talking points since she cried sexism several months ago. She gets away with saying anything, and every single time the media covers for her. This election is OVER and we can't even get the media to admit that because Hillary doesn't want them to. If the media were telling the truth, they'd point out that there's nothing comparable between 1968 and 2008, but they don't which is why people don't understand how bizarre it is for her to invoke that election.

8. Obama and Axelrod made the decision
to run a divisive primary campaign. Some of the media has gone along with them so far, in order to exploit the divisions they're creating. But when the time comes, they will turn on Obama too.

Play with fire, you get burned. Not sure what his strategy will be if he makes it to the GE.

12. You hate Obama, then don't vote for him, but your constant bullshit misrepresentations
are getting quite tiresome

There is no doubt in my mind that you hope with all your being that if Obama gets the nomination, he fails either against mccain, or if he becomes president

that is twisted and sick

As far as I am concerned, it is pointless discuss anything further with you

Go propagate you hate with someone else who gives a shit

9. "...the corporate interests know they are screwed if a Democrat wins"?
How, pray tell? Surely you're not suggesting that the Democratic Party isn't every bit as up to its eyeballs in corrupt special interest money as the Republicans?

11. No, I am not suggesting that the Democratic Party is immune from special interest money
and we all know enough Democrats in Congress gave this administration a free pass

However, the deregulation of the media started with Reagan, and the erosion of the fairness and equal time doctrine, along with the banking industry, an culmunated with Bill Clinton insuring that it became law

My point isn't that special interest money doesn't go to both parties, but that there is a far greater interest with the republicans to deregulate everything compared to the Democrats

The S&L crisis, the energy crisis, along with the current financial crisis, all had to do with removal of oversight

Ironically, it was the removal of oversight by Congress over the executive branch that helped bring us where we are today
