Like McCarthy's solid investigative work gets rolled up into HUAC's sensationalism but Obama's 2 decade intimate relationship with Rev Wright is dismissed.

And then entirely ignored the findings of the Simpson-Bowles Commission, in favor of playing partisan politics...

Except for the tacit support he has given to the Occupy Wall Street movement, in hopes of energizing his left-wing base for the November election...

Yes, still another example of his deep fealty to federal authority, and his corresponding contempt for states' rights...

You mean, like the 1979 bailout of Chrysler?

Oh, wait. The name, Jimmy Carter, leaps to mind...

If the bag has Bill Ayers, Frank Marshall Davis, Jim Wallis, Tony Resko and Van Jones among many others then you are correct. To Obama apologists Rev Wright is someone selected at random from the Chicago phone book.

I have no idea who these people are you are trying to associate Obama with but I guess you missed the point. We don't do guilt by association in America. Other wise you would have to associate the right and Bush with Kenney "boy" Lay and Ted "gimme some crack" Haggard, Larry "wide stance" Craig and so on. In American we don't do this.

Just like NPR, the PBS NewsHour on Thursday night invited on liberals Thomas Mann and Norman Ornstein to pound away at the "extremism" of the Republican Party (Tea Party Edition). Propose defunding public broadcasting, and this is how the Empire strikes back.

Thomas Mann unleashed on the GOP: "They are ideologically extreme, contemptuous of centuries worth of policy, economics and social; scornful of compromise, no use much for facts, evidence, and science, and really not accepting of the political legitimacy of the other party." As if Mann is sounding like he believes in the political legitimacy of the Republicans?

This is the huge flaw of media elites who see Mann and Ornstein as sober centrists -- as Woodruff calls them, "veteran Congress watchers." They don't ask: you say extreme partisanship is ruining Washington, and then you turn around and say everything that's wrong in Washington comes from those horrid Republicans. Isn't that awfully partisan?

Both Mann and Ornstein are screaming leftist wingnuts and certainly not very respected by any conservative. Respected by liberal elitists and that's about it.

Mikeyy feigns ignorance when it comes to the socialist, criminal trash that obama has surrounded himself with his whole life.
