Word is that Obama must be punished for making M$M
spend gazillions to follow him around the globe looking for gaffes and failing to give them anything to spin or ridicule.

How dare Obama have 250,000 people waving American flags? How dare Obama deliver an articulate presentation?
Listen Obama you're going to learn that being the presumptive nominee doesn't give you the right to be presumptious you arrogant uppity...........

M$M is going to help Gramps put you in your place. GEM$NBC has even removed classic 'beat downs' like the one delivered to Buchanan yesterday by Rachel.

How dare Obama make M$M look so fucking useless. Not one of their usual tactics is working? How dare Americans see right though M$Ms and Bushco's talking points.

M$M and their old dogs do not have any new tricks. They are going to try really hard. Expect some ludicrous comments for today's spin. Every song on Obama's Ipod will now implicate him as a black power, rapper loving terrorist.

Enjoy today's spin or :puke:

2. more and more people are on to (or off of) the MSM...
I just hope it's enough to act as a counter balance. It's too close to tell at this point, IMO.

3. All the polls say just that
but they will lie and spin and spread Gramp's propaganda and replay his ads for free.

4. This Has Already Backfired...
But if the GOOP wants to continue beating this dead horse and waste money on it...knock themselves out. The more they whine, the more desperate they look.

For the most part the corporate media has been in the tank for Gramps...but there are limits. Shooting the messanger and his "base" is a stupid thing and IMHO starting to piss some of the bubbleheads off. Look at Mrs. Greenspan's strong defense of Obama the other day...obviously someone pooped in her cornflakes and she did the impossible...told the truth.

The baiting of the corporate media by the GOOP is one of the biggest blunders they're making this year. They're turning their allies into adversaries. They can't paper over Gramp's gaffes or lackluster campaign...they won't be played as the scapegoats here.

Gramps attacks are starting to provide a "law of diminishing returns"...there have been so many attacks that he's getting in his own way. The Ludicrious song would have been story #1 last night had Gramps not put out that stupid Brittany/Paris ad. Who knows, maybe it'll get some legs today, but the story of the campaign is starting to turn...not about Obama but which gaffe or stupid thing Camp Gramps will try to pull next.

:hi:

6. May They Knock Themselves Out
Their whining is starting to sound like cries of "wolf". Even Wolfie isn't drinking the kool-aid on this one.

The great thing so far this year is to see how quickly the corporate media is forced onto the defensive when they're caught pulling shit. While it took far longer for the military base story to fade, look how quick we saw a take-down on the Milbanks hit piece. It's not really gonna be much of a news cycle story today.

Gramps shot his wad too soon..sucks to be him :rofl:
