They gave him (political) life, they can take it away

Wednesday, February 20th, 2008

Well, as noted before on this blog, the MSM has begun its campaign to trash their favorite RINO, John McCain, after spending months and great effort to have him become the Republican presidential candidate. Michelle Malkin says “Maybe McCain will really mean it now when he jokes about the ‘jerks from the media.’” […]

And if he, um, breaks wind, will he get a standing ovation?

Wednesday, February 20th, 2008

Un-freakin-believable. Just when you thought you’ve heard it all on the “Cult of Obama,” there’s this:
It’s probably safe to say that you have arrived as a politician when your audience applauds when you blow your nose.

Tuesday, February 19th, 2008

Cue the negative McCain stories from the MSM now

Thursday, February 7th, 2008

Now that McCain has pretty much become a shoe-in (no, Hillary, I spelled it “shoe,” not “Hsu“) for the Republican nomination, expect to see the MSM trash their favorite Republican from now until the November election.

The NY Times in six words

Wednesday, February 6th, 2008
