The brain-dead media often interjects its worthless views about how the Republican Party needs to field more moderate candidates, and that "extremists" (in actuality, slightly right-of-center conservatives) are unelectable.
The media LOVED John McCain when he ran against George W. Bush in 2000, but turned on him immediately when their guy Obama was McCain's opponent eight years later.
A few months ago, a slew of network reporters, being the absolute dupes that they are, were out parroting the contrived White House line that Jon Huntsman is the candidate President Obama most fears in a general election. He's formidable, they solemnly intoned. What absolute rubbish.
The Economist, a British news magazine that looks respectable only when stacked up against woeful Time and Newsweek, has come out with another of those tired stories about how the GOP will certainly lose the presidential election if it doesn't nominate a moderate candidate.
Uh huh.... you mean an establishment country club Republican? Um, ever heard of Ronald Reagan and the 1980 landslide? According to the mainstream media back in 1979 and 1980, Reagan was an extremist, knuckle-dragging, neanderthal and war monger. He could never be elected, and if he was, WATCH OUT! He won't hesitate to put his finger on the button and launch World War III. The problem is, there is no accountability with the mainstream press. They can keep on firing wildly, missing the target entirely, and usually no one calls them on it.
Now McCain has publicly endorsed Mitt Romney, and the Boston Globe has endorsed Huntsman. That ought to tell you all you need to know about these two candidates.
Look, I'd take President Romney over President Obama ANY DAY! But Romney certainly is not my first choice. His support of Romneycare and his expedient flip-flopping on issues such as gun control and abortion are disturbing. Frankly, the guy seems to embody way too many of the qualities that cause people to despise politicians. And now McCain gives his stamp of approval. Wonderful.
In November 2008, I voted Libertarian. I did not vote for McCain in large part because he supported the idiotic, unconstitutional campaign finance reform package and opposed the Bush tax cuts. I also recall his inolvement in the "Keating Five" scandal of the 1980s. With RINOs like McCain, who needs Democrats?
Let's put it this way: If the mainstream media is talking up a GOP candidate, McCain is endorsing him, or a liberal rag like the Boston Globe is singing his praises, any one of those can be considered the kiss of death for GOP hopes, and for the possibility of advancing conservatism.
Simple dimple.
no mater what we are empowering them by allowing to get away with anything they say and bye buying chip advertised goods through their net work or financial supporters
and also following the news what they are saying and blowing it to the rest of the world.I am talking about literally the corrupted and spoiled media. Good bye happy new year folks.
