The attack dogs are snarling, snapping furiously at Obama and Hillary, esp. Faux
Edited on Wed Oct-10-07 10:56 AM by skip fox
And we're over a year out. Can we even guess how vile it will get???

In the just the 7-10 days we've had:

1. An attack on Obama because he doesn't wear a flag lapel pin. On Fox News, while two our of three of fox and Friends were NOT wearing such a pin, they headlined the story: Flag Flap and asked in their poll: Is Obama a patriot or a traitor?

2. Hillary's laugh is rigged and reminds one of Howard Dean's scream. Therefore she's manipulative and scripted and slightly hysterical (like Dean in their eyes).

3. Hillary's adviser is Sandy Berger according to Fox, although occasionally one of the commentators discussing the issue will mention "She says he has many" or "She calls him an 'unofficial adviser.'" Nowhere is there context: She was ask if he was an adviser and she said she had many friends who she listened to, and on followup (being nice to those who give her advice) she said she has "thousands of informal advisor's."

One would think Fox News has exposed itself at last, yet the mainstream media actually pick some of these up and run with them for a bit.

If we though Swiftboating was like waterboarding, we'd best get ready. I think they'll go "Medieval on us," to paraphrase the character in Pulp Fiction.

1. And I forgot last night's attack on Faux: What Obama's preacher said.
I can hardly believe it.

4. She's probably the toughest and most ready at least.
With any luck Faux will be so outrageous that they will loss even more credibility, even 5-15% of their audience. (I'd hope for more, but those who give credibility to Faux are pretty hard to dissuade with logic or facts.)
