What is the value of liberty to you? Is it worth the price of a government check?

ENOUGH!

Thank you to this Boston Globe writer for nailing it:


Note that the Boston Globe is one of the liberal bastion publications in the country...

Ugh. Toran, jeez. This article is almost as bad as the attacks! As an expression of frustration, ok, but it cites all the worst-case comments. I have no doubt I could very easily drudge up similar material on Obama from hard-core right-wingers.

I agree much of the attacking is kind of gross in tone, and sometimes content. But this article does nothing to address the substance of it. In fact, it misrepresents the seriousness of much of it by glossing over it.

In my (probably wrong, haha) opinion... =]

I don't know this writer, but I'm not aware of any conservative writers on the Boston Globe staff. In any case, it's interesting to see this kind of report from a liberal paper...

Also, you make a point when you say you "could drudge up" untrustworthy right wing material on Obama. I'm sure you could, but it would indeed take some effort! Not plastered day after day all over the mainstream media.

well, it has been in the past! it was just spread out over time.

keep in mind we have a very tight time frame for vetting this unknown candidate. it's crunch time. lots of unanswered questions.

I don't think I have seen the mainstream media cover allegations against Obama...maybe they have but I don't recall it, not just recently but "over time." Certainly nobody can miss what's being said about Palin in the mainstream media. And Obama is the top guy in their ticket! Seems more important to vet the #1's even than the #2's.

David said...

true. but these egregiously hostile comments are not mainstream sources. that was my point. =]

The really nasty comments, you're right, but they mention the Washington Post and certainly there have been innuendos totally unfounded in the mainstream media, cable, etc.
