Re: Rmoney and Ryawn: (none / 1)

They're outraising Obama, have the corporate media on their side, and are up against an uppity nigger whose being blamed for the slow recovery of the economy which they deliberately engineered... Based on the economic fundamentals alone, they should actually be ahead.

Re: Rmoney and Ryawn: (none / 1)

have the corporate media on their side

citation needed. All those anonymous officials that get to praise Obama for Keeping Us Safe are hardly a sign of a hostile press.

Re: Rmoney and Ryawn: (4.00 / 3)

The way that Romney gets away with flat out lies and gets it treated as equivalent to the Obama campaign telling truths about Romney that Republican don't want to hear ... that's a fairly compliant corporate media.

I've been accused of being a Marxist, yet while Harpo's my favourite, it's Groucho I'm always quoting. Odd, that.

I didn't say that they were hostile to Romney. As Colbert memorably explained, the corporate media employs mostly stenographers.
If the Republicans tell them Obama isn't tough enough on the Iran - Moon Nazi alliance they will print it. And if the Democrats insist that the President personally killed Osama with a harpoon suspended over a shark tank they'll print that too.

Re: Rmoney and Ryawn: (4.00 / 7)

Which is a practice that most favors those willing to tell the most flagrant lies the most often. Picking between McCain and Obama on that front would take more in depth spelunking than I have time for, but in the present campaign, that clearly favors Romney.
