Obama Gets Testy With the Press


****During this campaign we have witnessed the most despicable assault on a candidates family by the press and the public in the history of this country. The names of Sarah Palin's children have become household words while the average person could not tell you the names of Barack Obama's children or their ages.

****Now we have Obama becoming testy with the press for taking pictures of him walking down the street with his oldest daughter dressed in her Halloween costume.

****"All right guys, that's enough," said Obama, wearing a casual outfit and sunglasses in the early evening.
****He and his daughter were walking right toward the media on a public street.
"You got a shot," he told the photographers. "Leave us alone. Come on, guys."

****On one or two occasions Obama has said that children of the candidates should be off limits. And yet he continued to allow the press to savage the Palin children when he, more than anyone, could have put a stop to it.

****Instead of throwing dissenting press off his campaign plane for the last few days of this campaign maybe he should have threatened to throw the "children-bashing" press off the plane months ago. Think that would have put an end to endless rumors, innuendos, and just plain ugliness thrown at the Palin kids? I do and I think others are thinking that too.

****And through it all Sarah Palin and her children have held their heads ups. Their faith in God, which has also been a held up to ridicule, is what is sustaining them now. May God bless those children.

Well said. I can't believe the propaganda through this election; I believe that liberty has died in this country. We're more corrupt than any nation on the planet, and it's been done under our noses while we arrogantly went about so proud of our "freedom".

Who is going to come along and clean up this mess?

Elisabeth said...

Agreed. The liberal press have behaved contemptibly - and BHO has not said a word to rebuke or correct them.

Adoro - WE are going to have to clean up this mess. God help us if he is elected, Tuesday - we'll have to stage a second American Revolution to overthrow the tyrant. He's going to make English rule look sweet!

Obama? What about his sidekick Joe Frankenstiden. He apperantly does not like to be hammered with questions about his political views and connections.

I think I dislike Joey much more than Giuliani.

Tom in Vegas said...

Nope. I dislike them both the same.

Adoro - I really think Laura is right. It will be up to all of us to fix this mess..

Tom - Hobgoblin and now Frankenstiden? You are so creative with your names.

Biden has an extremely low fuse and doesn't do well when someone yanks his chain. When I watch him my alcohol meter is twanging quite loudly. He may be a teetotaler for all I know but I just have a feeeeeling there is something a bit off there.

And Obama has no sense of humor. Never, ever trust a person who doesn't laugh - in particular at himself!
