Because He Said So

Very perceptive, Meege

I've been disturbed about this issue for some time now. The damage control by the Obama campaign has been right on target. Given cover by the MSM and not called to task on anything gives him the ability to spin just about anything to his advantage. His flock isn't willing to believe anything negative about him - even if it is proven by facts. His is a difficult position to combat and McCain hasn't done a very good job of painting Obama as what he truly is, a very liberal, big-government, socialistic empty suit with no achievements to speak of - and yet he appears to be on his way to the White House - go figure. Come visit me at Pesky Truth when you get a chance. Cheers,

Speaking of spin

It actually made my head spin when I turned on Fox News (yes, I admit it) the night of that Biden gaffe, and all I was hearing was about how every new president is tested. Honestly, it's impossible to misconstrue what Biden said. Why compare him directly to Kennedy if it's not about a young, untested president, as compared to every other president we've elected? If he meant EVERY PRESIDENT IS TESTED, that's what he'd have said. And yet, that's what the conversation is about now, even on Fox. It's simply amazing.

I didn't watch any other coverage. Was it even being covered by other networks?
