Free Ride: Inside The Media's Love Affair With McCain

John McCain can say anything and call it a joke... Ha, ha, ha laughs the MSM. Bomb Iran... al Qaeda and Gen. P. agree on Iraq... Yeah, one is sure helping the other at least in their press clippings. Give us a break!. He hugs enemies like W after South Carolina and turns them into his allies at least in front of the cameras. He's been playing the professional victim card all his life. War hero of torture who can't decide if he condones it or not anymore. Straight talk is far from any real truth telling. Americans can't stomach the truth and the press won't give it to them. It just makes everyone look bad and we have to think about our problems. McCain lives on stupid simple platitudes and repeating things enough until the media believes it must be true. He puts the sad puppy look or the smiling teeth on the end of his quips and they eat it up. Sound familiar? He is only a maverick when it comes to standing up against the worst Republican corporate give-aways where he won't get any dirt on himself but those dirty lobbiest will have a front row seat. Hell, most of them are retired politicians anyway. How's he going to save the economy, win the war or fix healthcare? Just get the press to do it for him. They'll think of something. posted 03/25/2008 at 14:56:52

Watch: Anderson Cooper Asks James Carville, "Dude, Aren't You Mr. Washington?"

Excuse me, obvious Clinton supporter. Who is the divisive candidate here? Clinton needs all the superdelegates she can muster to supposedly win? Only half of one per cent is all she managed to eek out in New Mexico after two weeks of counting and recounting. She sounds like Bush in Florida - except the superdelegates are not winner-take-all like the electoral college. Read the rules. Richardson can go with whoever he thinks can unify the party and win in November. Sorry, it ain't Hillary and "you wouldn't have Easter without Judas" boy. Superdelegates voting against the statewide winner is the only way she can pretend to win. The Dems are doomed if this slash and burn tar and feathering continues. posted 03/25/2008 at 08:25:53

China Blasts Dalai Lama, Pelosi on Tibet

The caption read She's "Habitually Bad-Tempered"? The actual article stated that she said the Chinese Human Rights officers were bad-tempered answering any questions ask of them and mostly unresponsive. Bad caption for a rather thin story about she said they said.

Granted Tibet is not the most pressing issue we have with China but the issue of human rights under the present administration obviously does not mean anything when the presnt administration supports trashing the constitution in our own country and attacking a country for oil while avoiding Darfur or any other dictatorship or genecide. The President is not the only person representing the United States on the international stage. He and his cohorts have done a horrible job. If John McCain was over there running for president and saying Tibet was wronged and should be independent you would be behind him 100%.

Pelosi is no heavy weight and hardly a blip on the China news much less our own theses days. What we hear in the press from China and what they hear are two different things. They do not hear about Tibet except to say rioters have been squelched. Much like the War in Iraq the news now repeats what the government lays out and most Americans prefer to accept it. Same in China. posted 03/24/2008 at 08:43:44

A Few Unanswered Questions About Bill Richardson's Obama Endorsement

Just like the primaries are not winner take all in most state primaries and caucuses - the super-delegates can split the decision, vote independently or vote as a bloc - if they decide to. Trying to hold any super delegates feet to the fire is not in the rule book. It may be a good idea to side with part or all the electorates or the majority if there truly is one - but in New Mexico it took several weeks to get the outcome decided. It was the closest and smallest majority of any state so far. Nobody won New Mexico out right according to the rules. It was a delegate tie with less than 1% difference, something like 300 votes between the two candidates?

Bill Richardson can do whatever he wants to do and so can any other super-delegate including those already declared for Hillary. posted 03/21/2008 at 15:57:15
