Why Did The M$M Stop Talking About Rev. Wright?
Oh wait, he's still included in every fucking conversation about Obama! Not only that, 'Hardball' just ran a clip from 'Wright's Greatest Hits' over a conversation they were having about Hillary.

ENOUGH!!!!!

3. It's infuriating. Especially when there is election fraud afoot.
The media is out for Obama's blood. I hate it as much as you, but what can we do about it?

13. The subliminal message is
"Don't trust" those Darkies



Hong Kong’s Hazel & Hawley Chemical Co. would probably still be hawking Darkie toothpaste had the company not been acquired by Colgate.

4. This will not be easy to hear
But it will take another catastrophic tragedy in the news to boot Wright off of the headlines.

That's just the Cold Hard Truth. It took 9/11 to get the media to shutup about Gary Condit.

6. I was thinking that the story's run its course.
Silly me. It's now become the 2008 standard for scandals, to which every other scandal will be compared.

The news will break WIDE, as soon as "NBC has found that the doctored YouTube video was released by (insert loose connection to Obama here)."

11. It doesn't matter.
He doesn't have to win any of the remaining states to win this. I hear things like Clinton could win NC. So what? What is she going to do gain 3 delegates?

Obama won 30 states out of 45. 11 straight wins. And 8 straight wins. He is close to leading in all counts. He needs some more SD's to come his way for this.

But before the race even started Hillary got most all of her SD's from name recognition. The remainder SD's didn't pile on because they probably don't want Hillary to begin with and will be going to Obama.

I feel Obama is just sitting back and cruising home to the finish line. He doesn't need any debates or bumps in the road.

14. Who would have thought religion would bite our front runner
in the butt? He has a pastor that is radical when he thinks he can get attention, media time, and trashes the black candidate in the process. This was apparently one of two prominent churches in that black neighborhood. When a person is starting out in life, whether it is in the building industry (homes/offices), business, politics, etc., they join the Chamber of Commerce and a church or other organizations that will further their career. Just the way things work. You join groups that will benefit you with the public, get to know who is who in the zoo type thing. Not saying a person only joins those entities for personal gain, but, I know many that do join for personal prestige and contacts. So your preacher, etc., wander off in a direction that doesn't fit your style there are usually other goodies you receive from their church and sermons.

The media will use this until they get enough complaints and decide they are looking foolish and apparent about their preferred candidate.
