Media Bias Roundup - 05/20/08
May 20th, 2008 by Terresa Monroe-Hamilton
Because I just love slapstick humor and because, well, this reminds me solidly of our politicians - here is today’s humor:
Onto the roundup… From the Democracy Project: A Real Republican Contract For November. A great post on what could save the Republicans in the next election. Gee, sounds like real conservative principles and less RINO wishy-washy doody… What a concept!
From AJ at The Strata-Sphere: Pakistan And US Are Purging Tribal Areas Of Militants. Kicking jihadist (can I say that now?) behinds and taking names in the tribal areas - good times…
And from Pierre Legrand’s Pink Flamingo Bar, we have a very strong post: We’re so sorry Uncle Mohammed! We didn’t mean to dishonor a book that calls for the rape and murder of our families. War is hell folks and sometimes apologizing is a true sign of weakness, not necessary and truly damaging and dangerous…
From The Radio Patriot:
THIRDWAVEDAVE BREAKS THE STORY: OBAMA SAYS HE’S “NOT FAMILIAR” WITH THE HANFORD NUKE SITE DESPITE VOTING ON IT IN THE PAST (12-19-05 5:53 PM)
ONCE AGAIN, IT TAKES A BLOGGER TO DO THE JOB THE OBAMA-ENRAPTURED MEDIA WON’T …
OUR SHOW PRODUCER THIRDWAVEDAVE has the goods on Obama. He burned the midnight oil, did the hard work that Obama and his people can’t be bothered with. After all, Barack’s the Messiah. He already knows everything he needs to know. Right?
Before you go any further, click link below the headline to read what DAVE uncovered:
OBAMA SAYS HE’S “NOT FAMILIAR” WITH THE HANFORD NUKE SITE DESPITE VOTING ON IT IN THE PAST (12-19-05 5:53 PM)
http://thirdwavedave.blogspot.com/2008/05/obama-says-hes-not-familiar-with.html
Hanford is the most contaminated nuclear site in the United States and the focus of the nation’s largest environmental cleanup.
I remind you that Obama was ELECTED to represent his constituents to the best of his ability. He has the public trust. He’s making his living EARNING constituents’ tax dollars for his labor in the Senate. (Not on the stump, but that’s another story).
He didn’t KNOW about the Hanford site? He didn’t know?
He only VOTED on a bill that included funding for its cleanup. He didn’t KNOW???
I have much more to say about this at my site. But before you head there, go read what Dave’s written. It’s a corker.
Just doing my job to keep you informed…

From AJ at The Strata-Sphere: That Michelle Obama Mystery Tape Surfaces Again:
Larry Johnson, big Clinton supporter and political hack, is attempting to destroy Obama’s candidacy and blame the GOP for it. If there ever was a myth that needs busting this is it. Clinton seems to have a tape of Michelle railing against ‘whitey’. What Johnson is trying to do is get it out while blaming the GOP for it, so Clinton won’t get the backlash from black voters.
The Anchoress: Obama’s 34-word manifesto. Definitely our post of the day…
