The liberal mainstream media, from the 2008 presidential campaign season to this day, refuse to look into and vet Obama’s background.
More than that, the media took their lesson from Satanist Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals , especially No. 5 (Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon), mocking Americans who question The Anointed One’s birth eligibility to be president by giving them the derisive label of “birthers.”
Now that Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker is polling at the top of likely 2016 GOP presidential candidates nationwide and even in California, lo and behold, the MSM are giving him the anal probe, with the Washington Post’s David A. Fahrenthold leading the way.
Below are excerpts from Fahrenthold’s article for the Washington Post, Feb. 11, 2015, “As Scott Walker mulls White House bid, questions linger over college exit."
Scott Walker was gone. Dropped out. And in the spring of his senior year.
In 1990, that news stunned his friends at Marquette University. Walker, the campus’s suit-wearing, Reagan-loving politico — who enjoyed the place so much that he had run for student body president — had left without graduating.
To most of the Class of 1990 — and, later, to Wisconsin’s political establishment — Walker’s decision to quit college has been a lingering mystery. […]
Walker clearly liked college politics more than college itself. He had managed to line up 47 campaign endorsements, including ones from the ski team and the varsity chorus, but he had trouble showing up on time for French.
And, after four years, he had faltered on both fronts. He’d lost an ugly race for president. And he apparently had far too few credits to graduate.
[…] Walker’s own explanation has been short and simple. He got a job. He meant to go back. But he just never found the time.
Today, Walker, 47, is the governor of Wisconsin and a strong contender for the GOP’s 2016 presidential nomination. He is known for an astounding political hot streak: Since 1993, he has run 11 races for state legislature, county executive and governor — including a highly unusual recall election in 2012 — and he has won them all.
But before that streak came a string of defeats: the campus election, his failure to finish college and his first campaign for state office.
[…] Walker was not available to comment for this article, according to a spokeswoman for his new political committee, Our American Revival. He is visiting London this week, conducting a trade mission and bolstering his foreign policy credentials.
Blah, blah, blah.
I still want to see Obama’s records and his passport details which have conveniently been deleted.
Commie hypocrites in the communist state controlled “media” strike at America again! Whadda country!
Also stay tuned for the tidal wave of Homeless Updates, due to begin in probably a little less than two years.
So far the many previous Walker anal probes have either backfired or come up empty.
We would still like to know which of the three different versions of Obama’s birth certificate is the real one, how he became president if he registered for college as a “foreign student” and what his grade point average was. Inquiring minds want to know just how smart he really was to have been admitted to the Harvard Law Review and why he didn’t write anything while on that exalted perch. What happened to his license to practice law?
So many questions never asked by the Leftist media about our First Affirmative Action President.
He’s been through this, he knows how to handle them, and I hope he gives them a real taste of their own medicine.
Ridicule.
Point out their hypocrisy.
This is the same tactic that the Democrats and their friends in the mainstream media used in the last Presidential election cycle. They no longer wait until the Republicans have selected their candidate. Now, they take down whoever seems to be emerging as the top contender before the primaries even begin. Last time around, they took down Herman Cain once he began to attract some attention. Then, they went after Michele Bachmann as soon as her campaign began to get some traction. The objective is to have the eventual nominee seen as “damaged goods” before the campaign gets underway.
Yes, the level and intensity of the media’s attacks function like a fear meter. A key example of this is the Tea Party. The Dems and their allies in the corrupt MSN were terrified of it and so they vilified the movement at every opportunity in a well orchestrated campaign.
Walker will have to beat the Dems, the MSM, and the GOP. I think he’s up to the job.
Catching flak.... on target.... bombs away!
Walker is who they fear most, based on this level of attack.
ANY Republican looking solid in any polling will get major hit pieces against them. It’s such a wide field there’s also likely much damage done via infighting. The Clinton machine came up with the worst dirt on Obama (his mother’s naked picture, for example), but he was (half) black so none of it mattered.
Insanely high black turnout (and fraud) was required for Obama to win twice. Hillary, Biden... I don’t see them firing up any voter base like that.
Will also be amusing to see the specific plans required of Republicans while Obama got elected on ‘hope’ and ‘change.’
It is they who got this incompetent fool elected and consequently enabled many of the evil things currently going on in the world today.
If Iran develops an atomic bomb and kills hundreds of thousands if not millions with it, then those deaths need to be placed squarely on the heads of those Liberal Democrat Union Members from New York City (and Los Angeles) who have been operating the information control system in our country.
Our number one goal ought to have been a massive effort to destroy these people financially and make them unable to influence the course of the nation.
We should have been building a communications network to put these people out of business.
Light will push back darkness.
I know.
They are making a big deal out of his lack of foreign policy experience when Obama had less than zero.
Amazing!
He showed up late for class and didn’t like college. Big whoop. Is THIS the worst they have?
So far the many previous Walker anal probes have either backfired or come up empty.
...but what they CAN’T find, which is nothing, they will make it up....anyone who doesn’t think or feel like they do, is racist or they do everything they can to destroy whatever is in their way.....
I read the article. There is nothing in it other than what Walker has said in the past. The trouble the left has in going after Walker now is that they already fired all their bullets in his three elections as Wis. Governor and failed all three times. The only dirt they will uncover now are things they will make up.
Funny how they could quote friends of Walker from his college days but nobody can seem to find anybody who ever heard of Obama from most of his college years
He was smart enough to get the hell out of college so his mind would not be corrupted by the liberal professors.
The media will do what ever they can to discredit anyone who is obviously better than they are. They fear Walker to no end and can see him becoming the next POTUS unless they do what ever they can to destroy him. We’ve seen this happen time and again.
I think that he was sick of the liberal professors’ attempts to indoctrinate the students and simply quit.
