I am delighted the McCain campaign moved aggressively on this. Perhaps I'm a little "old school", but I strongly believe that if a lie is told often enough with no rebuttal, people will accept the lie as fact. McCain's campaign needs to do anything it can to cut this one off at the knees.

Furthermore the campaign needs to vigorously pursue all other such instances. The public seems to understand the bias going on. Failure to respond to reporters who takes sides is a sign of weakness. Aggressively confronting such behavior is a win-win. 1) McCain supporters admire the strong stance (quite the opposite of the way the Bush Administration often acted). 2) Those "undecideds" need to quickly and forcefully see how such deceptions are tilting "news" coverage.

I just watched the McCain segment at Saddleback again, and 15 minutes into it, immediately after the "When does life begin" question was answered, McCain is asked to define marriage and he says;

"Can we get back to the importance of Supreme Court Justices?"

The left will eventually latch onto this as proof McCain was, indeed listening in on the Obama segment. There was absolutely no reference to SCOTUS prior to McCain's comment.

I can see how McCain logically coupled the Abortion issue with SCOTUS appointments, but this is going to be awkward.

I would like to comment on this, but it's above my pay grade.

Well that didn't stop Obama, so here goes.  McCain should confront this because it's a personal attack.  If they were attacking his policy, then no response would be necessary.  But when the media makes personal attacks, then it should be confronted.

The McCain camp is smart here. "Androdia" Mitchell is NBC'S Chief Foreign Affairs Correspondent and gets a great deal "face" (ugh) time during prime time. As well, she has demonstrated a pattern of STRONG bias, not just in favor of The Obamanation, but also manifests antagonism toward McCain.

While lessers might warrant a note here and there, most people understand that people like Goobermann or Matthews are singing to the choir. However, Mitchell is given the status as an unbiased journalist, a trusted neutral source and a major voice of NBC news.

So what this will do is put NBC on notice that while their lap dogs are expected to be biased and sing The Obamanation's anthem, they will be challenged and checked with Trojan Horses like Mitchell. She's already had to apologize recently for her BIGOTRY toward southerners, so her trend toward personalizing news isn't new but this pattern of blatant bias needed checked and good for Camp McCain.

*I realize Androdia Mitchell will be 62 in October and while age itself isn't a factor, for people whose profession in television relies partly on the ability for others to look at their face for periods of time, my guess is that Mitchell is counting on people who have a high tolerance for "Star Trekkian" characters like Ru'afo from the Star Trek movie "Insurrection".

Trust me, the link is worth looking and comparing to Mitchell.

The answer to terrorism IS war. Next Please!

I'll tell you what will happen to Andrea Mitchell....officially, nothing.  Too bad too, although didn't NBC suspend Shuster a while back for some sort of shilling transgression?

But on the dem gabfest known as Morning Joe, she will now join Mika with a daily dose of Mark Finklestein here, and we NB's will have more fun trashing her. 

David Gregory, do you know which damn network you lie for? ~ Uncle Jimbo, @Blackfive

with the them that the media are so swooned that they can't except the reality of him losing a debate.

I think McCain should complain but I don't think it will do any good at all. NBC is over the deep end now and are worse than CBS. The only network with a shred of professionalism is ABC. ABC tries to be fair but they still can't overcome the group think and the fact that they understand and believe in liberals more. I think if a similar thing happened on ABC a meeting could bring about some change but NBC is going to give them lame excuses and won't change a thing.

McCain would probably have better luck talking directly to Mitchell but even that probably won't go anywhere. Bush's people complained about much more outrageous stuff and no apologies or changes were ever made. The only ones who can complain about bias and get action are liberals (especially the Clintons). And of course we all know conservative bias to liberals is letting any conservative opinion on the airwaves. Only liberal opinions should be allowed in their minds.

The truth will eventually come out that the MSM is being fed talking points from the Obamic Jihad, and that the Big 0 can't handle himself without help. 

I have not yet been convinced that Hillary is done.  Watch and see how the Clinton Machine handles the latest Obamistake...

Hussein O got a large barrel of  Whoop A** dumped on him and the DNC Networks (ABC,CBS,CNN, NBC) are spending the week trying to scrape it off. Maybe Mitchell should call some of the 'Rednecks' in to show her how hard work is done. Maybe we have a home remedy to remove the stains from 'his royal highness'. Mitchell has resorted to wearing pampers since she wets herself every time she speaks the name 'Hussein' the chosen one.  They need to send Blather Rather back to the Texas stock yards to pick up something the world doesn't already know about McCain.

Old, Retired and glad of it.

Hey -- Obama just eed me. Guess I didn't make the cut! Though he only bios six of them.  (John from Boulder sounds like a tire guage dope.)

How come he doesn't mention Jose from Mexico City? And Mohammed from Cairo?  Maybe he hasn't had their full bios yet.

Friend --

As you may have heard, 10 supporters will be joining me backstage before I accept the nomination at the Democratic National Convention in Denver.

I'm pleased to announce that those supporters have been selected, and I wanted to tell you a little about them.

The people who make up our movement are of all different ages, races, and backgrounds -- and these folks are no different.

Lenny is a former naval officer from Emerald Isle, NC. Barb is a teacher married to a farmer in Fallon, MT. James is a law student in Massillon, OH. And Anne is a retired budget analyst from Indianapolis.

John from Boulder, CO, believes developing alternative energy is the answer to an array of policy problems. And Kayla from West Fargo, ND, didn't feel like she could ever be part of the political process -- until now.

They each bring their own unique perspectives and experience, and they are united by their hunger for change.

You can read more about these amazing people below. I'm looking forward to meeting them at the Open Convention, and I hope you will join us in sharing this important moment.

If you cannot make it to Denver, you can get together with your friends and family and watch my acceptance speech at a Convention Watch Party. It's going to be a big night, and you can join millions of supporters across the country to make it a success.

Sign up to host or attend a Convention Watch Party in your community on Thursday, August 28th:

Thank you for your belief in our ability to bring real change to this country. You continue to grow and strengthen our movement in ways no one thought possible.

Vote 4 change. Vote 4 anything. See Jack & Mr Shy's first campaign ad for the ONLY viable 3rd party candidate.

Andrea Mitchell...NBC News (in Rush Limbaugh's imitation of her voice) will get a pass...as usual.

Will this have any affect on the rest of how the msm treats the race or reports...are you kidding...they will get worse...they are in desperation mode....as they should be...they see whats coming down the road...going to slam right in their precious little biased faces come the 4th of Nov. 

Just wait until the regular clowns from msnbc get back to their regular scheduled propaganda...you just got to know critters like Matthews and Olbie have to be going nuts....hehehee

I'm actually starting to enjoy all of this.....on going implosion....

Denver is going to be more than interesting...

Good on the McCain campaign for taking on NBC. Most of the MSM is practically campaigning for Obama. McCain needs to keep putting them on notice for it.

When you put the clowns in charge, don't be surprised when a circus breaks out.

Did anyone else see the CNN report regarding the study that the Center for Responsive Politics did?  I posted some information here.

The Left-nut blogs are very happy about this "study".
