Speak Out Against Media Bias

September 24th, 2008 at 11:08am KMorrison

The McCain Palin 2008 blog is sponsoring a petition protesting media bias with the support of groups/sites across the political spectrum. While many have witnessed a decisive pro-Obama slant in this news reporting during this election, this bias became glaringly apparent when Governor Palin was selected as the vice-presidential nominee. Whether it is an organization like the New York Times having to retract stories about Governor Palin because they printed rumor and not fact; networks investigating the children of the Governor; or network pundits questioning the Governor’s ‘mothering’ skills, this over-the-top behavior and blatant bias is unacceptable. With over 1200 people having already signed we urge all readers to speak out against an irresponsible media by signing the following petition.

    Can we petition FOX News to drop the “News” part of their name? Maybe call it “FOX Opinion”?

    Is it “sexism” if one irrationally promotes one’s “female-ness” as well as when one denigrates one’s “female-ness”?

    Vote For Terrorism?
    24 months ago Iraq was in trouble and the Obama plan for a pull out / retreat designed to push ahead with a speedy withdrawal of US troops which would have meant an even speedier withdrawal of allied troops. US Troops would be out of Iraq by now.
    One can reasonably assume that Al Quaeda was hoping for this plans approval. One can definitely assume after a string of defeats in Iraq, a resurgent Iraqi Army, a sovereign government still in control that Al Quaeda really wishes that plan had been implemented. In fact, one can bet that Obamas modified plan for dramatic and speedy withdrawal after election is well supported by Osama and Al Quaeda.

    As an American Living in Europe I see things a little different than most Americans. I served in the first Gulf War and I am a veteran of 20 plus years.
    The current situation in the U.S. and the world situation at present, calls for a President that will lead and is not out of sync with the world. If all you can do is to point fingers and start slamming mud around you are not a leader and not in sync with the rest of the country or the world. I will not cast my vote for someone like that and I think that is also true of many Americans. The Obama campaign is not digging up trash that wasn’t already there. The McCain campaign is trying hard to find something to throw out there to get votes. Seems like desperation has set in to me. For all of the respect that I have for a Veteran that was a POW, it is very saddening to see that John McCain has forgotten how to lead in a desperate situation. To Sarah Palin all I can say is that she flat out talks more crap and is slinging more mud than she should be in her current situation. That also is not any form leadership. To the McCain/Palin campaign: The old military saying “Either, Lead, Follow or get the hell out of the way!” applies. So get the hell out of the way, your not impressing anyone with these political tactics. Mr. Obama has a plan, I’ve read it and believe it will work for the good of the country and the world. I’m voting for him and not for someone who wants four years to point fingers and place the blame on others. Its time to put a leader in the White House who is respected not only at home but around the world!

    I think experience should speak for its self. I cannot believe America is not learning from our worlds history, you cannot elect a president just because he is charismatic and has a way with words. Hitler was charismatic and had a way with words, you see where that got Germany. he has no experience and he is a radical as judged by the people he let baptize his children and preach at his wedding. I wonder how much money he has paid CNN, msnbc, and fox news to cover this election.

    Reasonable Doubt
    He wants to raise taxes and increase import tariffs in the midst of a recession. He lacks governance, business and real world experience. Ayres, Rezko, Raines and Reverend Wright are his allies. He wants to negotiate with terrorist states. He thought the Surge would fail. He didn’t think drilling or the mere act of opening up our coasts to drilling would impact the price of oil but it did!

    90% Is Racist
    When 90+% of a racial group is going to vote for a Presidential Candidate but the rest of the vast mix of population groups will be well below that then that is the very definition of casting a racist vote.
    That is not judging someone by the content of their character. African Americans need to take a long hard look at themselves and Obama and know that they are voting in a racist manner and we of all people should know better.
    Given that sort of fanatacism I hope the inner cities are prepared for either potential riot eventuality - celebration or surprising defeat.
