Why make a big deal of such a non-issue?




Um, because that's what the Republican attack dogs are trained to do?




I don't have the Republican play book, so any useful information you want to tell us, that we should know, would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

LA Times: "Fox News' faux documentary sets new low"

Now and then, Fox News makes a stab at living up to its "fair and balanced" tag line.

At other times, the cable network's operatives throw off all pretense, let their neatly trimmed hair down and do what they seem to love best -- blame all of the world's evils on those pointy-headed, America-hating liberals. Like, say, Barack Obama!

Fox host Sean Hannity and his producers served up a heaping portion of just such red meat Sunday night on "Hannity's America." And they've since been making lame defenses of the faux documentary, which bore the subtle title: "Obama and Friends: The History of Radicalism."

Fox's hourlong screed is just the kind of media coverage that has contributed to the increasingly angry and irrational tone on the campaign trail. Even by the low standards of this election's advocacy journalism, the program plumbed new depths -- relying on innuendo and guilt by association to paint the Illinois senator as a dupe of the shadowy forces of the left.

Much of Hannity's report was based on interviews with half a dozen partisan commentators, whose main qualification seems to have been a previously expressed disdain for Obama.

Near the top of the program, the host introduced one of them, Andy Martin, as an "author and journalist." But reporters in his Chicago hometown know Martin better as a perennial political candidate and serial litigant.

The Chicago Tribune has spent some time examining Martin's past. He was refused entry to the Illinois bar in the 1970s, in part because his Selective Service records showed his thoughts exhibited "a paranoid flavor and a grandiose character."

In a 1983 personal bankruptcy case, he referred to a judge as a "crooked, slimy Jew." And a federal judge noted his history of "vexatious, frivolous and scandalous" lawsuits.

When he ran for Illinois governor two years ago, Martin quoted a nearly 30-year-old Tribune editorial that called him "an absolutely brilliant campaigner" when he was running for a Senate seat. He didn't mention that the same editorial said he "has no more business in the U.S. Senate than an elk has in a phone booth."

The producer of the Hannity program declined to be interviewed, so it's impossible to determine whether Fox didn't know about Martin's history or just didn't care....

I go to website that is garbage according to you such as Huffington, crooks and liars, KOS, and Democracy Now!. But it is unfortunate that neither Sara Palin nor John McCain ever wrote a autobiography. Obama did write a book and also outline his position.

Kind of hard to claim my being Obsess, when you weren't inform that Reverend Wright was a non-issue with Obama? don't you think? The McCain campaign drop that long ago.

BTW is pretending to be a liberal while bashing the democrats in the playbook??

I have seen demonstration of people now claiming to be a liberal after spouting the Karl rove talking point for 7 years or so.

I have also seen picture of Bush in corporate offices being replace by JFK portraits on the wall. Some sign I believe that having a Bush portrait is now toxic on the wall for producing cash flow with other clients.

Please rephrase this in a way that actually makes sense, and then I'll respond.




Nah! I am fine with your non response. Like I have said most have move on with your nonsense of attacking a person for their liberal views. You believe whatever you want to believe. As far as who you are, only you know, I never tried categorizing you, but only point out years of you attacking me for my liberalism. I don't think your a liberal, and I am sticking to it. I don't need to prove who you are, but I think you would have a hard time convincing anyone in here that you are. It's up to you to prove otherwise, and honestly I don't care what you are. The burden of proof is on your end.

on the topic outisde of the ot civil war, i actually felt bad for mccain for a minute having to deal with people lke that racist woman who whispered "i think he's an  arab".  i mean of all republicans we could have seen he is the best (not saying much lol).  

but then i remembered the campaign he and the pitbull have been running lately.

after what weve seen the last decade, conservative arrogance of the first half of it both domestically and internationally crashing back to earth and right on top of them, when you go around making unfounded insinuations of "terrorist" you have to expect that for the most part only the very most ignorant of americans are still going to be on side.  

judging from the eruptions at recent republican rallies that's exactly what's happened...

Are you reading anything I'm writing?






For the past 2 years! Notty for the past 2 years you been trolling for my views, not yours. I never categorize you and I think no one could be label. Yet you label me as a martyr, a nut job, even put up a poll for me, just for a discussion in threads like this. Now your asking me to go there and prove myself of who I voted for.

The point was that there is this rehashing of what seems like a civil war going back in time of our thinking. Bush approval is down to %15 and there seem to be less of trying to shut up the progressive thinking from speaking, but you have prove otherwise. Here in the BEA one have spoken of how uncomfortable it is to have an opinion other than your own. I think many of us, and not just in here but worldly are not going to shut up anymore.

For 2 years anything I had to say about this administration, you have made a huge obsession to shut me up. Yet you could have exercise your restraint by not reading anything you don't want to read.

I tried to be your friend, and I open up to you about myself, and you turn around and started a poll to see if anyone thinks I am crazy. If anything you have proven to be severely mean spirited. There are lots of people with a violent past in their lives and they have moved on with therapy. Yet you are so obsess that you even have a thread on being Dr Notty in the house and ready to analyze. Ready to fix my grammar, my psyche, and my opinion on politics. And you think I'm obsessive?
