After Discrediting McCain, Williams Again Cozies Up to Obama
A week after NBC's Brian Williams spent his time with John McCain and Sarah Palin in Ohio discrediting the accuracy of their claims and pushing for assurance their campaign wouldn't mention Jeremiah Wright, Williams on Thursday night in Florida returned to the same cozy approach with Barack Obama, though without the memories of mom, he employed in earlier interviews with the Democratic candidate…
Obama Infomercial Poster
While watching the Barack Obama infomercial last night, your humble correspondent kept thinking about an incredible Obama infomercial poster created a couple of weeks ago by a member of the Free Republic by the name of "Gloucester." This is probably the funniest political poster of the year. It is best appreciated if you are already familiar with the Shamwow infomercials. Oh, and Freeper…
Obama's 2005 Daily Kos Post : Tone It Down, and Usher in a New Progre
Barack Obama sent a letter to the Daily Kos which was posted back in 2005 to talk strategy and "change" to the Kossacks. Obama was very serious about toning down the rhetoric only until it was safe enough to "enforce a more clearly progressive agenda.” (h/t to Gateway Pundit for bringing this back through Sweetness and Light) (my emphasis added:)I thought this might be a good opportunity to…
Florida Went Democratic in 2000? CNN’s ‘Magic Map’ Colors It Blu
CNN’s "Magic Wall" map on Thursday’s Situation Room displayed an error regarding the results of the 2000 presidential election. Instead of indicating that President George W. Bush won in the state of Florida by shading it red, the map showed that Florida was a blue state.

Bush and Republicans isn't really an endorsement of Barack Obama and the Democrats in the upcoming election. Huh?

Chris Matthews 'Overwhelmed' by Sight of Obama with Bill Clinton
Last night Chris Matthews' beloved Phillies won the World Series, and perhaps more importantly to Matthews, Bill Clinton "passed the torch," to Barack Obama. Decked out in his Phillies red, the giddy Matthews found the whole thing, well, overwhelming, as he exclaimed over video of Obama with Clinton: That is a sight for the ages! That, I am overwhelmed by it. It is something to watch! Look at 'em…
Obama Whacks Hannity Again As Jon Stewart Mocks Conservative Fearmonge
On the Daily Show Wednesday night, liberal host Jon Stewart offered Barack Obama eight and a half minutes of mostly serious policy talk after his infomercial aired on seven networks. The most noticeable part of the interview was when Stewart cued up Obama to attack conservatives for cartooning him as evil, and Obama predictably whacked at "hardcore Sean Hannity fans." Why does Obama seem to…

NBC's "Today" show, on Thursday, aired an "Access Hollywood," clip of Cher wearing a "Barack the Vote," t-shirt as she actually bashed George W. Bush, to his first cousin's face.

Diane Sawyer Touts More Taxes for 'Disproportionately Advantaged
While interviewing three generations of voters in one Florida family, "Good Morning America" host Diane Sawyer on Thursday pushed back when the mother of the household assailed Senator Joe Biden's claim that paying higher taxes is patriotic.
