Media Bias Roundup - 05/22/08
May 22nd, 2008 by Terresa Monroe-Hamilton
Meanwhile, this just in, not only has the MSM declared Obama the new mesiah, the stars have aligned for his foretold reign. Geesh, give me a moonbat break will ya… From the great and wise Anchoress (hey, just reading her tea leaves here): Astrologers and scary Bush.
And while we are anointing uber liberals, surf on over to Small Dead Animals who makes an excellent observation: Prayer Vigil. Not sure whether to laugh or cringe…
And more fun with the AP from Pierre Legrand’s Pink Flamingo Bar (just received an Instalaunch): AP Creative Writing Techniques…Sheesh didn’t Realize this was Kosher!
From The American Pundit comes this tip:
Just wanted to give y’all a heads-up on this. Remember that RNC ad a few days back that went after Obama for the windfall tax on oil companies? McCain may have just wiped away any hope of using that line of attack.

“Um, I don’t like obscene profits being made anywhere – and I’d be glad to look not just at the windfall profits tax – that’s not what bothers me – but we should look at any incentives that we are giving to people, that or industries or corporations that are distorting the market.”
That transcript is via Michelle Malkin.
TOTALLY unrelated but funny and just because - from the bowels of You Tube:
Sorry, just watched South Park and can’t do a thing with my humor today… Just goes to prove that anyone can be a star these days.
