The media are in love with Obama

Nauseating... damn groupies.

The Media is in love with Obama (watch your grammar). I think it is hilarious that supposed adults are scared to death of a half white half black man possibly becoming president. Just remember that 51% of America voted for Bush the second time so I am sure that that 51% will be stupid enough to vote in an aging lunatic Bush-like good old white boy.

jan,

Media is plural and requires the plural verb "are."

And it is not Obama's race that is scary, it is his ultra-liberal positions.

OBama "We live in the greatest country on earth and I hope you will all join me
in changing it"
Media *Orgasm Orgasm Orgasm*
I haven't seen such media hype since the Beatles first came to America!
Are Matthews and Carlson talking about Obama or the hottest chick in the world?
TLJ, you are right about Matthews, he is a freak, he talks about Obama and Deliverence in the Biblical sense,if Obama gets elected we'll be getting Deliverence alright, and in the background we will be hearing Dueling Banjos.

This is what I found on Merriam Webster sight:
usage The singular media and its plural medias seem to have originated in the field of advertising over 70 years ago; they are apparently still so used without stigma in that specialized field. In most other applications media is used as a plural of medium. The great popularity of the word in references to the agencies of mass communication is leading to the formation of a mass noun, construed as a singular <there's no basis for it. You know, the news media gets on to something — Edwin Meese 3d> <the media is less interested in the party's policies — James Lewis, Guardian Weekly>. This use is not as well established as the mass-noun use of data and is likely to incur criticism especially in writing.
So I guess it could be used either way. It is just like the word "monies" that everyone uses today. It just doesn't sound correct. Thanks for the insight.
You have to admit that the Ultra-Conservative policies that we have experienced the last 8 years have put us in this economic hole we are in now. I believe you have some number statistics flashing on your website as the Gross Natl' debt and all the young men and woman we have lost to the Bush war are increasing by the second. As far as Media hype isn't that what an election is all about? I am sick of it already..but that is what the mute button is for.

In the beginning, I felt sorry for Obama because he appeared to be an ignorant person. Now, he's still ignorant, but he's also arrogant and so full of himself, he is disgusting. People like him can become dangerous. He says pretty things that have no meaning. He's always associated himself with anti American types. And now, people love him, though he can't distinguish when to use the words, an and a. He know little about geography, and less about history. And, he's faked out millions of people, who sees something that isn't there, but who hopes it's there. They are gambling with America in an all or nothing scenario.

Arent you, TL, "the media"? More nonsense! Winger talking points?

Yea happy I'll bet, most Harvard Law grads are ignorant, where did you attend?

dan,

If I were "the media" coverage would actually be fair and balanced and you would actually be armed with facts instead of liberal propoganda. And you would be hearing about all the candidates who can mathematically win and not just those from the puppet master Republican and Democratic parties.

Where I went to school, I didn't get in on affirmative action. And, it doesn't matter where he went to school, because he is not a very bright person. He hasn't learned the basic courses that are taught in elementary schools. He cannot speak without a prompter, and certainly can't think on his own. He's proved that over and over. Instead of getting that tingling up you leg, listen to the man. On second thought, your grammar, spelling, and punctuation is as bad as his.

Tl, you are a part of "the media", and IMO, you have never been fair and ballanced, when ity comes to (D), and Liberals. I have never seen it. And have yet to see, you trash, anyone, you support, for being stupid, or criminal.
Maybe you should read, Protecting McCain, Pounding Obama, by Brent Budowsky, over at Consortiumnews.com? Obama will win, like it or not. Or maybe you should spend more time, telling us whats right about an (I) or (L), instead of wasting time trashing people,
that you dont like?

The problem, dan, is that I tell the raw truth about liberals and their anti-liberty agenda and you simply don't like it. Fair and balanced does not mean "things dan would like."

If you want to be a liberal, that is fine. But don't pretend you care about having a free country, because you can't support liberal policies and a free country at the same time. They are opposites.

~tjl~

jt,

I am not defending ultra-conservatism because I don't think that is what we have. Bush is simply a liberal war hawk. Conservatism, when done properly, means reduced spending, reduced taxes and reduced government. That is the key to a great, and free, nation. Bush, on the other hand, has destroyed the economy with his excessive spending and illegal wars. And the liberal Democrats are complicit by allowing it to happen.

~tjl~

And have yet to see, you trash, anyone, you support, for being stupid, or criminal.

Please interpret.

Hey, Happy, I believe the appropriate term for it is "educated ignorance"... lots of book learnin, but very little common sense. p.s. "Dan" = "Pops" ?????

Tom said, "If you want to be a liberal, that is fine. But don't pretend you can about having a free country because you can't support liberal policies and a free country at the same time. They are opposites."

Careful there, Jan might correct your typos too....

Thank you Susan, typo corrected.

Susan, Of course dan is pops. There surely are two people in Lima that ignorant, are there? And yes, book smart and no common sense happens, but Obama is not smart through and through.

Just wanted to to say sorry for the missed time. It's good to see everyone is still commenting on the ignorant and brainwashed people in the world. I'm still glad I have the ability to think for myself!

for now...

aren't Happy, are you igmorant? You finally got something right.

Welcome back, bengalbob!

A typo here and there doesn't bother me. Neither does misspelling. But, I do get bothered when I need an interpreter. Are you into hieroglyphics, pops?

Here is an excellent satire on the King of the World:

He ventured forth to bring light to the world
The anointed one's pilgrimage to the Holy Land is a miracle in action - and a blessing to all his faithful followers

Obama's star is rising like a rocket, but watch it fall just as fast. He is proped up by the media. Never mind the crowds in Europe that he drew. The two houndred thousand people crowd he drew in Germany was a fake. He spoke right after a free concert that the people showed up for. I think people will come around and see him for the empty suit that he is.

Adolph Hitler drew those kinds of crowds in Germany, too ...

Happy,
Excellent satire. Thanks for giving the link, it was very funny.

Tom,
You think that Obama has just more than rock star status now. Are you concerned?

EASY people.....2012 is near. The magnetic poles are in the midst of a reversal...the Earth and Sol are about to cross the Milkyway Galactic equator in line with the blackhole in the center (like an eclipse of sorts) ...Obama just may be the anti-christ. MARK my words, these next 4 years will be very interesting indeed. Both on a man made level and a natural cyclical level too. But in the mean time...DAN, you are sooooooooooo freeekin stupid.
