That conspiracy not only has Photoshopped out all of Obama’s imperfections (and dirtied up his opponent McCain’s image) but also has put most of his questionable history down the memory hole.
***He came just shy of saying what we all need folks to say about the photoshopped birth certificate.

The MSM is disgusting . I haven’t paid attention to their biased reporting in years. Even though the trend is against old newsprint and network TV, there are still too many sheeple out there who think it’s the truth. Sickening!

If the media is dishonest with us, we owe them no respect. It’s simple common sense.

Wonderful article and frighteningly true. The hypocracy is staggering.

The public image of Obama as an idealistic, post-race, post-partisan, well-spoken and honest young man with the wisdom and courage befitting a great national leader is a confection spun by a willing conspiracy of Obama, his publicist (David Axelrod) and most of the senior editors, producers and reporters of the national media.

Other than that, he's really an OK bloke! /heavy sarcasm

I don’t pay attention to the Media anymore, it seems like every second another Palin smear comes out of the pipe for example. It also becomes harder to distinguish professional reports from sensational tabloid journalism. If they are going at it like that, why not address Obama’s Muslim faith gaffe, if it really was or just a Freudian slip.

Instead, as some people have said, it actually took Fox to break the report on the Rev. Wright. Before that we knew very little about him, which actually makes him worse as his Lost Weekends seem to be made out of nothing. But what we are really seeing is the impact of style over substance.

It is no secret that a few polls(and a symposium at my college) are about race and how it relates to modern politics. Hopefully one will examine how Black Racism isn’t acceptable anymore as a sense of grief if Obama loses. If they are giving Palin the Presidential treatment why not do the same to gender? Oh yes she is not really a woman or part of the Gloria Steinem “Patriarchy want a cracker!) fanclub.

Obama, and I will say this, has cruised to the top based on race. His only accomplishment in life that makes him unique was to be the first Black editor of the Harvard Law Review, yet he hardly did anything in that position. Say hello, Obama, the first Affirmative Action candidate who actually has more money than John McCain alone and Sarah Palin. According to Tony Morrison and Cornell West, that makes one white.

The public will be voting based on the idealized image of the man who never was. If he wins, however, we will be governed by the sunken, cynical man Obama really is. One can only hope that the senior journalists will be judged as harshly for their professional misconduct as Wall Street's leaders currently are for their failings.

I doubt our country will be in such a safe and free state to judge this mistake after he is done. We may not be around long enough to judge harshly with this man in charge. God help us defeat this man and the media that has quit being of service to its citizens.

He has had much help and prepping along the way, by very shady people. Must Read:

I’ve told all of this to my liberal family members, and have nearly been excommunicated from the clan for my efforts.

The author nails it, when he says that you have to look to the web to find what should be plastered all over the front pages of our nation’s newspapers.

This is exactly why my family reacts with outrage when I challenge them on Obama, “The Man Who Never Was”. They’ve bought the stylized and carefully scripted Madison Avenue image, and haven’t bothered to examine his record or his past with any critical analysis.

From what I’m seeing, most Dems that have, are switching to McCain.

This is no longer journalism; it is simply propaganda.

Understatement of the day.

Thus, the public image of Obama is of a "man who never was."

Most of his "history" comes from his auto-biography. I have no doubt what-so-ever that almost all of it is delusionally fabricated.

Obama’s candidacy is the biggest hoax since global warming, and he is on the verge of being “push-elected” by the insanely biased media. The election of this trojan horse will be the beginning of the end of American capitalism, after 8 years of reprieve. And in 20 years, Bush will be revered as the last great president before the socialist era.

Tony hits one out of the ballpark

This one breaks a windshield in the parking lot. Then glances off and knocks off a rear-view mirror.

You have to go to weird little Web sites to see all the stammering and stuttering that Obama needs before getting out a sentence fragment or two.

Hey, I resent that! This is a weird BIG website!
