There is a troll in our fora. Why is that ok with the moderators?

Where's the trolling? Phatscotty made an evaluative statement that is actually becoming supported by more information as more people actually investigate Obama's personal history.

Woodruff wrote:Let me get this straight...the fact that "the left leaning media" has been reprimanding and disciplining their reporters for misconduct is somehow a reason why "the left leaning media has lost A LOT of their credibility this year"? That actually makes sense to you?

Actually, it's because they're conducting the misconduct in the first place.

Irrelevant to US politics because none of it took place in the US (or was in any way related to the US).

Thanks Strike, but woodruff is just trying to get a rise out of me. For woodruff, the details are important because these media people are taking the side of Obama, against Romney.

And to steal the answer to Woodruff's questions to Strike, if I may step into Woody's world for a moment. All these media reporters from MSNBC, NBC, CNN, ABC, CBS, TIME, the one guy from Fox (Beckel) getting suspended and fired...noooooooo, that does not hurt their credibility! Getting fired and suspended for plagiarism, dishonest editing, conclusions without any evidence to support, totally losing their cool and cussing on TV, breaking the rules about giving money to political campaigns.....that HELPS their credibility! :twisted:

Perhaps a little education is in order. These guys cannot begin to have the proper context without certain bits of true information....straight from the horses mouth

We Control the News Media - Anita Dunn Barack Obama's Communications Whitehouse Director
"Very rarely did we communicate with the press about anything we did not absolutely control" @2:15

Anita Dun, Obama's handpicked Communications Director - "My favorite philosopher, and who I turn to most (...Communist leader of China and hands down largest mass murderer in history) Mao Zedong"

how they controlled the media to spin what they wanted out there. She explains how the Obama campaign controlled the spin and "worked" the Mainstream Media. Whoever controls the media controls the masses and the spin like true totalitarians.

Of course the Media went along with this because they wanted Barack Obama to win. If they didn't they would've ran more stories about his lack of experience and his old ties with questionable charters, (not to mention even speaking about his college transcripts, while today the media is going through all Paul Ryan's college records and interviewing Ryan's college professors....)

But this should be an embarrassment to the mainstream news media like NBC, MSNBC, CNN, ABC and CBS that those in power can control you, but then again the majority of them back and protected Obama and are still doing it today. They should do their job, instead of attacking those who are asking questions of those in power.

This is one reason the Obama Whitehouse is going after Fox News because they can't control them.

Yep, the polls are telling you to vote for Obama.

They most certainly are NOT telling you what people are voting for.

(Of course, a lot of that oversampling comes from conservatives who are now independents because of failures of the Republican party but will never vote for Obama because they're true conservatives.)

yes. those polls. I still still think the majority of people who are not sure who they will vote for until 1 minute before they enter the voting booth. For example, sure the polls seem split (like always!!!) but look at how many people think the USA is heading in the wrong direction? It's 72%. And how many think the USA is heading in the right direction? I'll just put it this way, Congress (%7) has a higher approval rating than the amount of people (6%) who think we are heading in the right direction!

Obama's perception has been able to maintain a plane unaffected by the direction of America poll, and that's because of his likability. But when perception meets reality, reality wins every time.

Obama should not condemn Biden's remarks, and the Republican party should praise him as exactly the kind of "straight shooter" they ostensibly love. The metaphor of a chained or shackled American people is common-- Santorum claimed that the ACA "will put you in chains" at his own Iowa State Fair speech last year-- and as Biden himself indicates in his remarks, the Romney campaign has described their plans for deregulation as "unshackling the economy." Whether or not you agree with his larger point, it's unreasonable to claim that Biden was out of line for using the Romney campaign's own imagery against them.

I think the point is that he is talking about putting "people" in chains, not chaining the economy with regulations. If Biden were talking about the economy, then I would have never even asked the question

Also, does what you say hold true, if say, Trent Lott cracks a private joke. not even about slavery, but about segregation, at a birthday party (he had to step down)? Can a Republican say what Joe Biden said, criticism free? Do you think there is a double standard going on here?

I see what you're saying. There is a difference between what language is acceptable to apply to people vs. what is acceptable to apply to abstract concepts, but I truly don't think this crosses a line. He wants to show that deregulation will have a negative effect on peopple, and he does this using the rhetorical device that his opponents have used in the past. "Opponent says Good Thing? More like OPPOSITE OF GOOD THING" is fairly routine political rhetoric, and while I'm not blind to the undertones, the reaction from Romney's campaign has been excessive.

Do you believe there is a double standard? In my last post, I mentioned Santorum talking about how the ACA would put people in chains. As far as I'm aware, there was not a negative reaction to that remark. Likewise, the recent Romney campaign ad claiming that Obama ended work requirements for welfare has come under fire for factual inaccuracies, but not for the "dogwhistle" image of lazy food stamp sponges and welfare queens that it conjures up.

I was not politically aware in 2002, and only have a passing familiarity with the Trent Lott controversy. Was it a joke, or a gaffe? He shouldn't have been pressured to step down (from his role as Senate Republican Leader, not from his Senate seat as I initially believed), but this isn't enough to prove a widespread double standard is at play. Newt Gingrinch said that Obama could only be understood by people who "understand Kenyan, anti-colonial behavior," but he still got to run for the Republican presidential nomination. Elected officials who are or were birthers still hold their positions. Trent Lott is an unfortunate outlier, not evidence of a larger trend.
