Howie Kurtz at WaPo warns that the media is really getting mad at the McCain-Palin campaign. Indignant reporters accuse them of playing politics and spinning. How dare they! No campaign has ever done that before. I read this and thought, this is news? Of course the press is upset; McCain-Palin threatens to bring down their chosen candidate. Here's a breathless excerpt from Howie's article:
News outlets are increasingly challenging false or questionable claims by the McCain campaign, whether it's the ad accusing Obama of supporting sex-ed for kindergartners (the Illinois legislation clearly describes "age-appropriate" programs) or Palin's repeated boast that she stopped the Bridge to Nowhere (after she had supported it, and after Congress had effectively killed the specific earmark).Wow. He reports news and defends his hero Obama all in one breath. What talent.
Meanwhile, no one calls the Obama campaign on it when they take an obvious McCain joke about being rich and turn it into a dishonest attack ad.
We heard nothing from these Guardians of Truth about Obama praising China's infrastructure, saying it is "vastly superior to ours." It was an ignorant and provably untrue statement, but the Obama-infatuated press said nothing. You can find Mr. Obama's statement on YouTube, but not by searching on-line news articles.
Mac's not their buddy anymore because he's no longer the inoffensive moderate they can praise as he goes down in noble defeat to The Messiah.
So Howie, Joe, and the rest of the ink-stained liberals disguised as the press... Get mad! Get outraged!
Get bent. Take your haughty, impotent anger and stuff it!
Your credibility is shot. Nobody believes you anymore...
To paraphrase Bob Dylan "we're beyond your command, the times they are a changin'!"
