So You Support Obama

Media Is Bias
Before I get started on this topic I want to be VERY clear about one thing. I am a conservative. I am for small government, and I am not in any way for the progressive socialist movement.
The last few months I have been just absolutely disgusted by the mainstream media. They have been so biased, and I think that as the years play out and time passes people will look back at the media today and they will be using it as a lesson as what we should try to avoid in the future.
The Media has become so arrogant, that they send the message that they have the power to decide what is right and what is important. The word “fair” has no meaning any more. You can see it time and again, and the last few months with this Presidential election it is more apparent than ever. The way the media has been talking about Obama is amazing. They treat him like he is the greatest man on the earth, and he can do no wrong.
Obama is the epitome of political correctness. He is smooth, good looking, a great public speaker, Muslim background, Black, and White at the same time. He has got it goin on, and of course he can do no wrong. He has said things that if they were said by anyone else they would have ruined themselves. He has said things like,
“she is a typical white person”
“Clinging to god or religion as a means to vent their frustrations”
However thanks to Obama he has opened the door for other people to say things, and when the media jumps ALL OVER THEM we can kindly direct them to how they let Obama get away with saying racist and elitist things. Obama is not a typical black person. I can go into details about it but I don’t think that I need to do so. I have no beefs with the fact that he said it. I see nothing wrong with what he said because it is true. There are such things as a typical white person. I don’t think that the typical white person today is racist like he was implying with the above quote, but I would count myself as one of them (the typical (non racist) white person). The problem I have is the fact that the media lets him get away with it for reasons I don’t understand, and if someone else like John McCain said the opposite like “typical black person,” it would never disappear.
I am ok with Obama being treated like the messiah, but I don’t like that he gets it with no basis for it. I no doubt believe that Obama is an honorable man, but I don’t think he is as good as the media is portraying. EVERYONE makes mistakes, and we ALL have problems in life. It is ok to have them, and I would have a problem if one did not have any. Obama is never portrayed to have them, and if one does they are squelched by the media very quickly. McCain is played out to have nothing but problems. I do not believe that is true.
This is not supposed to be an Anti-Obama Blog and I am sorry that is has that spin, but as I said I am a conservative. It is supposed to be about the media bias. The last week the unthinkable happened. I became 3 times more disgusted with the media than I was before. When Sarah Palin was picked to be McCain’s VP the media went on a frenzy. It is apparent that the media does not like to be surprised. They probably feel that they should have had the chance to vet all of the potential people, and when someone off of their radar was picked what did they do? They went NUTS! They had nothing prepared. No one did but a few, and those people had nothing but good things about her and that would just simply not do. Mainstream media was embarrassed. We are not supposed to make our own choices on how we feel about a person! The Media is supposed to do it for us! What was McCain thinking not letting the Media make the choices on if she was good or not? Well I am glad that he did.
Just in case you don’t know. The McCain campaign intentionally kept this a secret. There was not a whole lot of communication so that the media could not get a sniff of it. The face to face meeting prior to the selection was made in secret, and when she was brought down for the official announcement she was brought down on a normal commercial airline and stayed in an $89 a night motel, and was checked in under a different name. Was this fair? I don’t know, and quite honestly I don’t freakin care! The Media will say that this was not a fair way to do this, but who cares what they think.
The Obama campaign has such a grip over McCain in the media of course the McCain campaign is going to play this out right to upstage Obama as best as they can. They let us all know about this choice right after Obama’s speech and totally blew him out of the news. It was great. There was nothing on this person out there, and for a couple of days I had all the time I needed to my research on this lady and find out who she is, and what she stands for without having to wade through all of the bias media mud. The Media did not like this at all because if one did this they would probably like her, and I mean a lot.
One would find that she is just like us. She is what Obama and Biden pretend to be. She is real, and knows what life is like for the rest of us. So as this happened what did the media do? They posted awful things, and got dirty in their tactics. Attacking her family, making false outrages claims with no proof whatsoever. I am not going to say what they were, as you can do a Google search and find out all of them in about 5 seconds. They had nothing prepared on how to tear her down as a person and as a politician so they had to get dirty about it.
I just hope that as the weeks play on that the media will calm down and take a more fair, and honorable approach on how they deliver the news to us. There are some people that due to what they have done I will not even watch because I am so disgusted at how poorly they go about News Broadcasting. It is ok to like one person more than another and to let it come out in your message, but please be more honorable and fair in how you do it.
If you want to attack her, than attack her. Leave her family out of it. We had to do it for the Clintons with Chelsea. I just want to see some sort of fairness on the news. I am talking about within the same organization. MSNBC could perhaps try to be a little fairer in what they say about the republicans in contrast to the democrats. MSNBC and the New York Times are the absolute worst about biasness. They are so bad about it, and it is so obvious.
In 3 days the New York Times carried 67 articles attacking Sarah Palin. Everything from "she's no Hillary"; to her hair looks "20 years out of date"; to "her Fargo accent"; mentioning her husband DUI charge from TWENTY-TWO YEARS ago; attacking her 17 year old pregnant daughter; bringing up "trooper gate" without key details, and on and on. Maybe a little over the top? Barack Obama has been on the cover of Time Magazine SEVEN times this year alone...McCain, twice. Obama stories have outnumbered McCain news stories by almost 4-1 in the media.
I am going to conclude with one example of how different the media can be. Just with a simple picture.

I have SPS Really Bad

Man I have a wicked case of SPS (Sarah Palin Syndrome). The more I learn about this woman the more I am filled with hope for the future of this country. The more I see and hear about this woman the more and more I like her.

Our Friend with the Gambling Problem

Lets pretend you have a friend who has a gambling problem. He is behind on his bills. Like, WAY behind, and there is no food in his house, and you know this because he comes over to mooch off of you to get food all the time.
You feel bad for him, and you wish that you could help him. Then one day he is over at your place and he tells you that he is about to get his power turned off because he is too behind on his electric bill. You as how much and he tells you the amount. It is not too much, and you can spare it no problem so you give him some money to pay for his electric bill, because hey, why not? He is in need, and you have the money to spare.
So you give this friend the money and guess what? He doesn't pay his bill he does what he always does with is money. He blows it on gambling!! You know he has this problem, but you thought that he would spend it on his bill. Needless to say his power gets turned off, and as time moves on, he gets his power back on, but he is still way behind on all of his bills, and is racking up the gambling debts and fast. Again you feel bad about this, and feel bad for him. He needs the help and you make plenty of money and you manage yours well, and you give him some money to pay some bill, and put food in his fridge.
You then
find out that not only did he not pay his bills, and he did not buy food other than a few Red Bulls but he blew it ALL on gambling. Your friend HAS A GAMBLING PROBLEM!!! HELLO?!?!? You give him money and he is going to blow it on gambling. He needs some help, and he needs professional help. Not a hand out.My friends! The Federal Government is that friend with a gambling problem. They Rack up more and more debt, and they just want more and more money. You do not fix a gambling problem with more money. Well that is just how many many of Americans want to take care of the problem.

Free Health Care
Government Controlled Energy
Welfare
Medicare
Social Security
Government Controlled Schooling
Government Subsidies
Government Bail outs
These are all things that many Crazy people want. you would never give your friend with the gambling problem more money so why would you want to give the Federal government more money? They have a bad record of managing money. They just plain suck at it.
If you read that list (and it is a small one. Should be a lot bigger) you need to understand one thing. THEY ARE NOT FREE!!! There is nothing free in this world. Someone paid for it and just because it was not you it does not mean that it was free. Just means that you did not pay for it. People don't understand that, and if they do they just don't care that it is just a redistribution of wealth in its early form. They want the hand out.
Is it really a good idea to raise taxes to give the money to a government that can't manage what it has already (NO the Democrats can't do a better job. They make it worse. (yes Republicans are not much better)) Is it really going to get better if the beloved and holy Obama wins? Is it really going to improve if McCain the old Battle ax wins?

My Thoughts on the Canidates (more a rant against Obama)
nk that he is our Savior. Here to save us all from the bad things of the world! I have so many problems with this man I am not even sure where I need to begin. What has the man done? Not much in his EXTREMELY short government history. He is a socialist in every sense of the word, and scares me to death what he will try to do with this country should he win. I am honest and truly scared of him winning. I will vote for McCain only because I am running away from Obama. Has nothing to do with the likability of McCain, just that I am terrified of Obama.
es that can't be kept and people believe that he can for example:
