Joy Reid: Media Were ‘Enchanted’ with Palin, Bush While Finding Obama

MSNBC’s “AM Joy” host Joy Reid lamented Sunday how the media viewed former President George W. Bush and Sarah Palin as authentic and enchanting because of their speech while also “disparaging” former President Barack Obama for “being almost too erudite and articulate.”

“There is a thing in Republican Party politics where not being erudite as a speaker is seen as a virtue,” said Reid. “It was with George W. Bush, the idea that he’s plain-spoken, and so, when he would mangle the language — even the media would read that as authentic and great, right? He would make up words and people would say, ‘That’s great.

Yeah, when those dummies Bush and Palin talked about 57 states and “corpseman” I thought, if only we could have an erudite, articulate leader.

Her statement underscores her racism. The media bent over backwards for Obama, and in my view hurt other black politicians. By facilitating the election of an ideologically motivated person willing to bend and break rules to achieve his agenda, they assured that the first nominally ‘black’ President would be a divisive figure. This hurts the efforts of patriotic black politicians who wish to serve their country and make things better in the US.

Come on Joy, your employer as been telling us for years that we hate Obama because he’s black, not because he’s articulate. Racism sounds much worse than “anti-articulatism””.

And yet even with all this opposition, Obama was able to free the slaves.

The media eagerly dropped the soap whenever Obama was around.

This woman apparently does not remember history.

Part of this is due to stupidity.

Another is deceit. She's lying, probably both to herself and her viewers.

But it is very deceitful on purpose, mostly.

Incredible data disconnect. Now we know. The cognitive dissonance is strong with the Left.

Talk about mangling words. Where on earth did she learn to speak? Who could even follow the nonsense that comes out of her mouth?

She’s not delusional. She’s flat out lying.

No, I really don’t think she does “know history”, nor remember it being made in front of us, nor does she believe anybody else remembers history as it actually occurs.

She lies inside her own bubble of a distorted reality that DOES reflect only her own “feelings” and memories that are constantly re-reflected by her head-nodding “guests” and agents and cocktail party sympathizers who “know” only the same latest specially-fed factoids.

She is actually that stupid/foolish/mind-numbed with hatred that each different latest lie is easily accepted (her memory - if any - of each previous actual event is washed out). This leaves a blank canvas that the latest lie can be breathlessly repeated from her heart.

Why? Because that lie is what her faith WANTS her to believe, and that lie is what she desperately WANTS to believe. She has no morals nor ethics that bring her back to reality.

I’m sure you are correct regarding many deluded individuals. But I don’t think there’s any doubt that the media have long been in the business of propaganda and ‘making’ news rather than reporting it.

That’s an amazing article. The media slobbered over Obama and hated Palin.
