Hmm...

...if the Big Media went after Obama like they go after these folks...

But they're forbidden to.  So they wouldn't dare, not that many Big Media apparatchiks even would want to.

So it's up to the New News Media to investigate Obama's already-proven-but-ignored-by-the-Big-Media ties to various extremists and criminals.

No wonder the Obama folks hate FOX News, Andrew Breitbart, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, World Net Daily, etc., etc... and are trying to figure out ways to silence them or make their voice less effective.

...Love the channeling of Nixon's populist media-persecution schtick.

After all, it worked out so well for him.

Keep up the great work!

...or was I channeling Obama's populist media-persecution schtick?

Hmm?

So how's it working for Obama? Be honest with yourself. You see him plummeting in the approval polls, don't you?

I think your reference to FOX News, Andrew Breitbart, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, World Net Daily clears up that matter.

"You see him plummeting in the approval polls, don't you?"

I do see Obama's poll numbers falling. At the same time, I also see conservatives desperately attempting to place that into a binary frame, ignoring that it is also non-conservatives who feel that Obama has compromised too much.

But to return to the original point, Breitbart et al aren't being criticized for simply opposing Obama, it's how they're going about it (see death panels, tax increases, socialism, antichristism, birtherism, being complicit in terrorism) that's the issue. That's what makes this faux-persecution angle that an unfortunate number of conservatives have decided to adopt all the more absurd.

It's never been mere opposition that's an issue. It's been the depraved depths the right has sank to in order to oppose that's the problem.

Nixon didn't understand this (or perhaps pretended not to) and the current crop of conservatives who have adopted that same approach will hopefully face the same fate.

Aside from the fact that you didn't substantiate your claims with proof of debunkation of the criticisms coming from the Right towards Obama and the Democrats...

And you haven't noticed the abysmally "depraved depths" to which the Left has undeniably sunken... including Obama and many Democrats?

Whatever the case may be, one thing's for sure: You are a die-hard Leftist. Why? Because it's much more convenient, you feel, to be Leftist than to be right.

Truth doesn't sway you. You know stuff is wrong, but you're onside with wrongness anyway. Perhaps your income depends on going along with wrongness. Perhaps you're popular with folks who believe in this wrongness, with or without knowing it's wrong, so you keep up with the wrongness because you'd become depressed without all those delusional folks reassuring you that you're ok and stuff. Whatever the reason, at least for now and the foreseeable future, the truth isn't going to mean diddly-shee-it to you.

In addition to being onside with wrongness, you attack truth and call it false.

And it's blatant. Really, it shows. We can detect it from beyond visual range.

Now... why don't you go take a camel?

I guess it's time to reprise Evan Sayet in case Audrey the Second hasn't seen it.

I had not seen this Sayet tape. He is on the mark. Thanks for dropping that in glasnost. Perhaps Audrey (is full of it too) will view this and think, rub two thoughts together, and generate a spark that will blow her head clean out of her arse.

And, Audrey, please read Nixon's Bio on Wikipedia. You might see some things there that you weren't aware of. ∞ ≠ ø ☺
