Groveling In Kenya: CNN Pays Price For Trying to Turn Obama Into Superhero
Breitbart ^ | 08/17/2015 | John Nolte

Posted on 08/17/2015 6:22:36 AM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

When President Obama visited the African country of Kenya last month, left-wing CNN went full hagiography, going so far as to send shameless Obama-groupie, Brooke Baldwin, over with a pair of pom-poms and her own camera unit. In trying to make Obama look like a superhero, though, CNN finally went too far when it smeared an entire country. Now the pro-Obama network is groveling to contain the blowback.

CNN, a cable news network already under scrutiny over charges of internal racism and its role in fomenting race riots, once again stepped on a rake, this time in a painfully obvious attempt to distract from the fact that Obama’s July trip to Kenya was yet another stop on the president’s endless journey of self-exploration. This one paid for by taxpayers. To make the president look brave and courageous, CNN repeatedly and falsely described Kenya as a “hotbed of terror.”

Yes, you read that correctly: the same network that spent months smearing Donald Trump as a racist because he dared speak the truth about the horrific problems associated with illegal immigration, smeared an entire African country as a hotbed of terrorism.

For CNN, it’s the cost of doing the Lord and Savior’s work, in service to The Glorious Cause.

"..once again stepped on a rake.."

I'm liking that. As a person who has actually "experienced" said action, both metaphorically and in reality, I'd consider it a good analogy for the buffoons. d;^)
