NPR gave Obama another primetime spot at 8:45 AM this morning
How can any astute person say that :tinfoilhat:bama is any kind of anti-establishment candidate?

3. Maybe Palmieri is looking for a job now
Anything NPR is for, deserves to be double and triple guessed. The American Pravda is 99% on the side of empire and corporatism.

10. NPR is the world's best propaganda. Kookie Robots pissing on Dems every Monday
It's run by and for Radio America for awhile now. I sure miss Bob Edwards, do you?

6. That is so stupid
How in the world do you run for President and not go on every media outlet available. Use your head for something besides a hat rack.

8. The obviously media loves Obama, for now.
The moment he knocks the woman candidate out, he becomes "Barack Hussein Osama" the Islamic crack dealer. People think there will be these wonderful debates between Obama and McCain about the war. That's a joke, Johnny Mac will just refuse to debate with the liberal Democrat's "Al Qaeda" candidate. And just like when they turned a Vietnam war hero into a commie collaborator, the press not only won't intervene, they will cheer the propaganda on like a sporting event, saying stuff like Obama didn'trespond soon enough. Instead, the mainstream media will be talking about madrassas, the origins of the names "Hussein" and Obama, can a Muslim be a good American?, is Rezko connected to Al Queda? why Brittany supports Obama, etc,etc,etc.............

Then just think what Faux News and Limbaugh will be doing? But the worst will be when NPR stabs him in heart with an icepick during morning drivetime a week before the election.

12. Is it liberal? When was the last time you heard a labor leader on NPR in drivetime?
Is Hugo Chavez really the enemy of the average American? Why do they have so many "scholars" from the American Enterprise Institute, Cato Insitute, etc...Let's face reality, NPR is the CIA's first draft of recorded history and if you don't see it, you're not paying attention

Why is it brought to you by Wal-Mart, Archer, Daniels, Midland, Exxon-Mobil and your local Lexus dealers, if it doesn't represent the establishment? If Hillary is evil for working for Sam Walton's the made in the USA Wal-Mart during the good old days, then NPR has to be more evil lying down with today's made in china Walmart?

11. He's not, but who wants an...
anti-establishment President? I want someone who will repair the damage already done, not start a fucking revolution.

And, what's wrong with NPR? Got a problem with Science Friday or the Car Guys? "News" is not 24 hours of solid trashing of Shrub and his minions-- other things are happening in the world.

15. Twice today, actually. But only as the...
subject happened to come up and in the middle of some other discussion.

There is news other than the election or the perfidies of the White House.

14. LOL! That is insane.
When NPR becomes the establishment medium, hell will freeze over.

Shit, this is so rich considering that the New York Times has endorsed Hillary.
