Even President Obama should be able to read the writing on the teleprompter
The media’s job is to figure out how to get more Democrats elected.
That’s the way the Associated Press seems to see it and a recent hand-wringing editorial from AP shows liberal news sources have been betrayed by the Obama administration.
Never in the post-racial, post-Viagra political landscape has a media action figure fallen so sharply and so quickly. AP now fears that Obama’s magic has worn off.
The list of White House failures is growing: It hasn’t galvanized the legions of 2008 Obama backers in three major statewide losses. It hasn’t prevented primary challenges for at least two vulnerable Senate Democrats even though Obama endorsed them. And it hasn’t recruited strong candidates for Senate seats once held by Vice President Joe Biden and the president himself.
AP can’t blame themselves. They and other journalists created the biggest, coolest honeymoon that a president has ever had. In their rush to get Obama elected, they forgot to ask the tough questions, like how Obama would deliver on his campaign promises. They swept concerns under the rug and lied when that didn’t work.
When high expectations and Obama’s own low qualifications smashed head long into political reality, the media has come to the conclusion that they created a monster that even they can not keep propped up.
And their agenda hangs in the balance.

“It hasn’t galvanized the legions of 2008 Obama backers in three major statewide losses.”
Is that why they’re using the public schools to recruit useful idiots to further Obama’s agenda?
I do have to ask myself… how exactly did the big media lose touch with reality like this?
Prediction.. w/ Emanuel’s slur on retards, BHO will have a very well covered foto-op with intellectually challenged kids, even though earlier he referred to his bowling skills equal to special olympics. Cuz it’s how the dude rolls.
Say, anyone see a pattern developing here?
Obama’s Envoy “Rashad Hussain” to Islamic Bloc Admits Controversial Statements About Supporter of Terror Group.
Next, On Dec. 16, President Barack Obama’s signed an executive order “Designating INTERPOL as a public international organization entitled to enjoy certain priileges, exemptions, and immunities.” Why?
Next, we have the three Navy SEALs who face assault charges for capturing one of the most wanted terrorists in Iraq. Why?
Next, The White House is not responding to questions about House Minority Leader John Boehner’s (R.-Ohio) renewed call for the resignation of Harry Knox, a member of the President’s Advisory Council on Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships. Knox is the director of the religion and faith program at the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), the nation’s most prominent homosexual rights group.
Next, President Obama appointed Ron Bloom, “Manufacturing Czar” who cites Chairman Mao as a political guide.
Next, President Obama appointed Anita Dunn, White House Communications Director. She stated in an address to high school students this past June that Chairman Mao Tse-tung was one of the two “philosophers” she most often turns to.
Next, WASHINGTON, Dec. 23 /Christian Newswire/ — Christian faith leaders stunned by reports that President Obama would have an ornament of the image of Mao Zedong hanging on the White House Christmas tree.
Next, Valerie Jarrett helped to hire Van Jones, the self admitted Communist.
Next, Valerie Jarrett also recruited Cass Sunstein into the administration. Obama appointed Sunstein as “regulatory czar” to direct the White House Office of Management and Budget’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs. You remember, this is the guy who wants to establish legal ‘rights’ for livestock, wildlife and pets, which would enable animals to file lawsuits in American courts.
Next, it’s John Brennan, President Obama’s national security deputy, thinks Gitmo jihadi recidivism is “not that bad.”
Next, Obama’s relationship with Anti-Israel activism people like Rob Malley (Foreign Policy Advisor). Malley is the Director of the Middle East/North Africa Program at the International Crisis Group (ICG). Malley’s Camp David propaganda has also become fodder for Palestinians, Arab rejectionists, and anti-Israel activists across the world.
Next, Obama just met with the leaders of a collection of Jewish groups, ostensibly to quell their concerns about his approach towards Israel. Barely two weeks later, he gives The Medal of Freedom to Mary Robinson, an enemy of Israel AND the host and mastermind of the Durban Conference (anti-Semitic, anti-Israel). By bestowing of the Medal of Freedom on Mary Robinson it is a slap in the face to the pro-Israel community.
Next, George Soros a man who has made clear his goal is to break the close bonds between America and Israel; a man who has also been a key financial backer of President Obama’s; Soros is a funder of the ICG through his Open Society Institute; Other members of the Board include Zbigniew Brzezinski (whose anti-Israel credentials are impeccable) and Wesley Clark (who called US support for Israel during the Hezbollah War a “serious mistake”.
Next, Daniel Kurtzer another State Department official, blamed the Israeli response to terror attacks for “the radicalization of those Palestinians to violence”. He does not characterize the perpetrators as terrorists but as “guerillas”. accepts a false premise: that the Palestinian problem is the core of the conflict in the Middle East.
Next, DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano. Beginning with her embrace of the impotent euphemism “man-caused disasters” to the hit job on conservatives and veterans that she was forced to apologize for, to her assertion that crossing the border illegally, “isn’t a crime per se”, to her claim that 9/11 terrorists came in through the Canadian border, Ja-No has confirmed time and again that she’s as effective as HS Sect as she was as Governor at stopping the invasion in her home state (Arizona).
Next, Wednesday, April 15, 2009. Georgetown University says it covered over the monogram “IHS”–symbolizing the name of Jesus Christ—because it was inscribed on a pediment on the stage where President Obama spoke at the university on Tuesday and the White House had asked Georgetown to cover up all signs and symbols there. Why?
Next, Eric Holder has been busy. H.R. 2159, the Disarming American Citizens Act allowing anti-gun Attorney General Eric Holder to revoke the Second Amendment rights of ANY American he chooses based on pure “suspicion”; A new so-called “Assault Weapons” Ban, H.R. 45, the “Catch-All” Obama Gun Control Bill, which would create a national gun registry, require a two-day waiting period, hike taxes on gun sales, federally ban ALL private firearms sales, and FORCE you to take a written exam just to prove you’re “fit” to own a firearm; The U.N.’s so-called “Small Arms Treaty,” which would confiscate and destroy ALL “unauthorized” civilian firearms and set the stage for INTERNATIONAL gun confiscation.
Next, Copenhagen was all about controlling the world’s energy sources, then being able to dictate how that energy will be distributed — and taxed. “Hopenhagen” was perhaps the most concrete step toward a one-world bureaucratic regime in recent history. Thats why to give our President bargaining clout in Copenhagen, the Environmental Protection Agency, declared ‘greenhouse gases,’ most notably carbon dioxide, a public health hazard. This would have allowed the EPA to regulate it — read that ‘tax it’ and ‘outlaw it’ — under the Clean Air Act.
Next, President Obama Appoints John Holdren as Science Advisor. In 1977 Dr. Holdren and his colleagues Paul and Anne Ehrlich published the book Ecoscience. In it, Holdren and his co-authors endorse the serious consideration of radical measures to reduce the human population. The measures include: • People who “contribute to social deterioration” (i.e. undesirables) “can be required by law to exercise reproductive responsibility” — in other words, be compelled to have abortions or be sterilized. • Women — particularly women of insufficient means due to poverty, nationality, marital status, or youth — could be forced to abort their children and undergo sterilization. • Undesirable populations could be sterilized by infertility drugs intentionally put into drinking water or in food. • • A transnational “Planetary Regime” and a transnational police force should be assembled to enforce population control.
Wow, all these conspiricy theorists might be on to something.
Next, Air Force Retracted Invitation for Conservative Leader to Speak at Prayer Luncheon After He Criticized Obama’s Position on ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ Dr. William Donahue, president of the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights in New York City condemned the action – and called for an investigation. “The decision to silence Tony Perkins, an ordained minister and Marine veteran, represents political correctness at a dangerous level,” Perkins, meanwhile, said the real issue isn’t that he was disinvited to an event – it’s about political correctness in the military on homosexuality.
Next, Obama administration official, speaking on background Friday to a group of reporters, characterized the Fort Hood shooting as “an act of terrorism,” the first time an administration official has used that term in describing the massacre. The acknowledgement was stunning given the criticism from conservatives over the administration’s reluctance to call the incident an act of terror. Asked repeatedly about the relationship between Hasan and extremists in Yemen, the administration official declined to make that direct link. It has been reported widely that Anwar al-Awlaki, the radical American cleric living in Yemen whose influence also was cited in the attempted Christmas day bombing, exchanged multiple e-mails with Hasan.
