Never Again! Not the Holocaust. We're talking about the MSM's determination not to let Barack Obama be "Swiftboated." In successive segments today, CNN provided a perfect example of the phenomenon. First, a one-sided trashing of Obama Nation, the anti-Barack book by Jerome Corsi, who co-authored Unfit for Command: Swift Boat Veterans Speak Out Against John Kerry. In the succeeding segment, anchor Suzanne Malveaux worried out loud to Paul Begala that Barack Obama might not be responding fast enough to attacks against him, thereby "falling into the same trap as John Kerry."

Introducing the first segment, Situation Room anchor Malveaux didn't hesitate to make unequivocal claims as to the Corsi book's inaccuracy.

SUZANNE MALVEAUX: There's a new book out about Barack Obama, and it is not flattering. The facts are mixed with accusations about Obama that are misleading or just flat-out wrong. Yet despite all of this, there is concern that author's claims might catch on with some voters. Our CNN's Jessica Yellin joining me now, and Jessica, the author even admits that there is an agenda here behind this book.

Boo Freaking Hoo...

Now, they are the filter for the ‘truth’?!

Maybe the old MSM should check out some of their ‘facts’ before claiming to know everything about Obama that the voters should know.

I think I will decide that!

This is good publicity for the Book. Thanks, CNN, for the millions of dollars of free publicity for “Obama Nation”.

I watched Corsi on H&C last night. Trust me; he’s no light-weight. He can take the heat.

You were correct about the 3-D!!!

I didn’t recall seeing that when I first found the image and did have to use screen capture to save it!! Really strange but you are very observant!

Just with those “lowest common denominator” types.
