We all witnessed how the democrats have crucified poor 'Joe the Plumber" and many others for not submitting to the Obama agenda. Anyone who has spoken out against or has questioned Barack's position, policies or platfomr have been subjected to the lefts tactics of suppression.
Some in the MSM are slowly awakening from their stupor and are now finding themselves victims of Barack O-Nazi's brown-shirted storm troopers he calls his campaign staff.
From the Drudge Report --
The Obama campaign has decided to heave out three newspapers from its plane for the final days of its blitz across battleground states -- and all three endorsed Sen. John McCain for president!
The NY POST, WASHINGTON TIMES and DALLAS MORNING NEWS have all been told to move out by Sunday to make room for network bigwigs -- and possibly for the inclusion of reporters from two black magazines, ESSENCE and JET, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.
Despite pleas from top editors of the three newspapers that have covered the campaign for months at extraordinary cost, the Obama campaign says their reporters -- and possibly others -- will have to vacate their coveted seats so more power players can document the final days of Sen. Barack Obama's historic campaign to become the first black American president.
Only AFTER the papers endorsed McCain are they left with no seat. Of course the Obama Storm Troopers claim the papers endorsement of McCain had no bearing in their decision. But Washington Times Executive Editor John Solomon would disagree...
The Obama campaign informed The Washington Times Thursday evening of its decision, which came two days after The Times editorial page endorsed Senator John McCain over Mr. Obama. The Times editorial page runs independently of the news department.
"This feels like the journalistic equivalent of redistributing the wealth. We spent hundreds of thousands of dollars covering Senator Obama's campaign, traveling on his plane, and taking our turn in the reporters' pool, only to have our seat given away to someone else in the last days of the campaign," said Washington Times Executive Editor John Solomon.

Look, it's not surprising that in the waning days of a campaign he'd get rid of reporters who are not from swing states. Wasn't one of them from Texas and one from DC? No doubt Texas will be red and DC will be blue.
The fact is this is a non-issue and it shows that the right is grasping at straws trying to make something of this.
I'm an independent and this type of hysteria (along with ridiculous cries of "socialist") is why McCain is not getting my vote.
The right is out of ideas and it shows.
He should have run Dowd over with the plane. Dowd was booted quite awhile ago and furthermore she is NOT a reporter. She is a columnist and a crappy on at that.
ReplyDeleteIn fact it IS an issue! It shows that anyone who does not subscribe to Obama's wishes are silenced.
I do believe one of the reporters was from VA and I believe that is a swing state.
Why didn't FOX News get kicked off King? Your arguments have no substance on this particular issue.
