MSM Refusal to Vet Obama: Affirmative Action President?

Posted on 10/17/2008 9:29:12 PM PDT by Bronco_Buster_FweetHyagh

Joe the Plumber asks Barack Obama a simple question, which elicits a damaging and revealing peek into Obama's true beliefs. Within two days, the Main Stream Media and left wing pundits and bloggers have waged a full blown character assassination of Joe the Plumber. (1) Insinuation Joe Lied about his name (its his middle name) (2) Accusation that Joe is a deadbeat (he has a tiny back tax bill), (3) Accusation that Joe is a law breaker (he works under the license of a different plumber like MANY tradesmen across the US), (4) Accusation he's a wife beater and a deadbeat dad (they dug through his divorce papers, (5) Accusation he's a shill and it was staged (trying to connect him to the republican party somehow). On and on and on.

So, the message from the MSM and left - if you dare to even ask a basic question of The One, and accidentally elicit a truthful response, we will assassinate your name, your character, etc.

Why hasn't the MSM vetted Obama the way they vetted Joe the Plumber?

Why haven't I heard even one single MSM or cable news outlet or large paper mention the Berg v. Obama lawsuit? The questions over his citizenship? His birth? His ties to radical Kenyan socialist movement? His ties to radical muslims? His grades in school? His "academic" works as a law review editor? Whether he even took a bar exam? His work as an attorney? Where are the interviews of ANYONE who knew him before he was in office?

It struck me - the MSM refusal to vet Obama seems to be an intentional effort to help him get elected.

It struck me - Obama believes that the "guys behind Joe" need the government's help to be successful, as opposed to successful people helping themselves. Why does he believe that? Is it because he needed help?

Did Obama receive affirmative action help getting into college?
Did Obama receive affirmative action help getting into law school?
Did Obama receive affirmative action help getting a job?
Is Obama receiving affirmative action votes? White guilt? Voter fraud? Vote early, vote often? Dead peole voting?

I don't want an affirmative action president.

It’s “racist” to point out Obama’s warts.

That was a progressive point, and it's written to point out that normally, it's obvious the MSM is biased to the liberal candidate - however, it's different this time - the refusal to Vet Obama is because they know that what they will uncover will hurt him. They have never been as afraid to be journalists as they have this time around. It's a tragedy.

Well, yeah. But we mustn’t mention this, for it would seem to be, well, “racist.”

It is odd that he wouldn’t release his transcripts, despite being the brilliant student who managed to be named president of the Harvard Law Review or whatever.

But the kid gloves treatment by the media is astounding, even for a Democrat candidate. Maybe we should start digging up dirt on them and spreading it around the world? Are they not public figures? Maybe they’ll think twice about carrying water for their favorite candidates when the world will find out just what kinda fruit loops they are.

The wheels are in motion to do just that.

I don’t think it’s an affirmative action thing, it’s that they know or suspect that Obama’s real beliefs and intentions would scare away voters, so they have to be kept hidden as much as possible until he’s elected. The American people aren’t going to vote for socialism, but they can be conned into electing a stealth socialist.

Oh, come-on! Let’s think positive thoughts... should Obama get “elected” and the massive voter fraud uncovered, it should prove that a) we need better safeties/controls on voting, b) fraudulent voting/registration should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, on EVERYONE who was involved, from the person signing, to any government officials who are grossly negligent through the registerator’s supervisor and the guy that actually delivers the fraudulent forms c) a real-life example that affirmative action IS actually counterproductive and contrary to merit-based systems.

So they discovered that Joe the Plumber left a toilet seat up after one of his jobs and that he is not a fully licensed plumber. What's the point? Can only licensed plumbers approach the Messiah?

So they discovered that he had a driving infraction. How does that compare with Teddy Kennedy's driving record or the Messiah's collection of unpaid parking violations at Harvard and in Washington, D.C.

For asking a very legitimate question about taxation and eliciting an embarrassingly frank answer (we're going to take hard-earned bread from your plate and “spread it around”), Obama’s media hounds have been unleashed to absolutely destroy this gentleman's life. The hypocrisy of the main stream media has no limits.

What a great idea, start digging up the dirt on these so-called "journalists" to see if they can take it as well as dish it out.

Joe is a private citizen. If they say something untrue, he can sue them for libel-slander-defamation. I hope he’s got an attorney. I’d be happy to do it.

To all who read this, I would like some information to complete or correct the details of the two following “resumes”. If I have stated something incorrect in either, let me know. I welcome both conservatives and liberals to offer their information for these resumes. The only requirement is that the information be correct. Thank you.


The clearest and most straightforward way I know to make a choice about an individual’s suitability for an important job is, first, to get a job description.

President of the United States: The President of the United States is responsible for leading the executive branch of the federal government, managing at the highest level those agencies responsible for enforcing the laws of the nation. The President is responsible for commanding the nation’s defenses and for annually reporting to the nation the state of the country and its government. Informally, he exemplifies what it means to be a good American and a good citizen. He takes seriously the concerns of all Americans and leads Americans forward in pursuit of life, liberty and happiness as long ago established in our founding declaration. The President advances and communicates our interests to the leaders and people of other nations. The President takes ultimate responsibility for the decisions, actions and outcomes of government even though they are often flawed. The President serves less as leader of the political party which harbored his pathway to the office than as leader of the best interests of the body of all Americans. The President serves as a role model for what it means to be a good American and sustains optimism and courage regardless of the challenges that face us.
