Fire CNN's John Roberts


Why? Because he is a Democrat operative. He is not an objective journalist.
I fully expect the Liberal Left to attempt to discredit and smear Vice-President choice Governor Sarah Palin. But news organizations are supposed to be objective.


Yeah, I know. Of course they are not. But when you can't even get straight news from an on-screen anchor then that news organization is not about news at all. It is about shaping opinion and steering voters towards candidates that they support and away from ones they want to destroy.


There is of course a long list of such "journalists" but the short list has names like Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews near the top of it. Matthews wants to be in politics so badly that he behaves on air as a Liberal wanna-be Pennsylvania Senator.


And Olbermann is honestly suffering some mental disorder.


John Roberts of CNN jumped out early against Governor Palin. Showing his incredibly heart-felt support for Special Needs children he spewed this on August 29:
"Children with Down's (sic) syndrome require an awful lot of attention. The role of Vice President, it seems to me, would take up an awful lot of her time, and it raises the issue of how much time will she have to dedicate to her newborn child?"
Really? Where did Roberts' new-found concern for working women come from? If Palin were a Liberal Democrat he would be praising her "courage" and "resolve" in the face of such family difficulties.

Also on the same day he said: "Now, she is a manager. She is the governor of a state. She does have limited experience, though. She's also been the mayor for a city in Alaska. And for a time she was the ethics chairman of the Alaska oil and gas conservation commission. But that does not add up to broad experience, particularly the type of broad experience you think should launch you to the national level."


Right. I'll leave it to you to judge how he would have framed a Liberal Democrat's similar experience. Never mind that Barack Obama has less executive experience than the Governor. No, Roberts will not go there.


And his latest "oops" moment was a Freudian slip of epic proportions-- though you will never hear about it except from Newsbusters.org and now on Youtube.


Here is what Roberts says in that video. (Emphasis mine):


"You know, this almost looks like what happened in 2004 where the Bush campaign was very, very good at defining John Kerry in their own terms, and he was on the defensive, and he was always trying to fight back against them. Do we risk, or does the Democratic Party here risk Barack Obama becoming John Kerry II?"


Hey Roberts, your bias is nauseating. You should just come out of the news closet and embrace your inner Liberal. You'll feel better.


And America will be better off knowing who you support politically. So drop the pretense of objective journalism... mmmkay?


You have made changes in the past for the better. That's right.. I remember your Trojan helmet mullet.

Hey, Team Obama: Learn to use 'the Google'.


So the Obama campaign has yet again walked into a propeller, shot itself in the foot, screwed the pooch or whatever your favorite cliche is for idiocy, by producing this Unbelievable Web Ad


If you'd rather not view it, the ad smears McCain by claiming he is so old and out of touch that he doesn't know how to use a computer and can't even send an e-mail.


A cursory search on McCain would reveal that he is quite computer savvy. As FORBES MAGAZINE revealed eight years ago in 2000:

In certain ways, McCain was a natural Web candidate. Chairman of the Senate Telecommunications Subcommittee and regarded as the U.S. Senate’s savviest technologist, McCain is an inveterate devotee of email. His nightly ritual is to read his email together with his wife, Cindy. The injuries he incurred as a Vietnam POW make it painful for McCain to type. Instead, he dictates responses that his wife types on a laptop. “She’s a whiz on the keyboard, and I’m so laborious,” McCain admits.


Maybe the Obama team is on to something here. Look for more ads like these...McCain can't even comb his own hair, McCain can't throw a baseball, McCain can't tie his shoes, return a salute or place his hands behind his back.

Yeah, being tortured almost daily for five and a half years has a tendency to cause things like dislocated shoulders, broken arms, broken teeth caused by the butt of an AK-47.. those kinds of things that the Obama campaign seems to take little notice of.

McCain was tapping Morse code through prison walls to fellow POWs and being beaten for it if caught, while Barack Hussein Obama was smoking weed and trying to score some blow.


Another morsel of wisdom for you Barack: Presidents can't e-mail anyway. Any and every piece of e-mail is subject to subpoena. Clinton sent TWO e-mails in his entire term.


So who is more out of touch with the people? John McCain or the campaign that has offended The Women Vote, The NRA Vote, The parents of children with Special Needs vote, The Democrat Catholic vote, the Veteran Vote and now the Old Vote.

I dare say that man-child Obama could not even open the canopy on McCain's A-4 Skyhawk without googling his Blackberry.
