We might as well be under a dictatorship which censors and filters our news. I'm so sick of being fed CNN and ABC's views. CNN controls HNN, CNBC, MSNBC and CBS. CBC operates our local WSBT, and our other local WNDU is also owned by CNN. If I didn't use my remote control satellite and constantly flip to all these news channels, including FOX, I would not get the real story of what's actually going on.
If you're only watching mainstream media - you're getting the view their Democratic far-left liberal owners want you to get. The only time I get to see a Republican speech in full is on FOX. The other stations show a small portion of it, then cut it off, and you have to listen to half hour of their commentary views of what they say was said. I prefer to form my own views.
The mainstream media will dictate our next election. They promote Obama by giving him (according to a non-biased news coverage study) three times the coverage over McCain. Obama, the smooth-talking Harvard lawyer, is seen constantly walking back and forth, above his crowd, talking empty talk. He's a trained speaker. He appeals to those who want a movie star to lead us.
He charms his audience the way Bill Clinton did playing the saxophone. The TV show "The View" raved about how sexy he was. "The Ellen Degeneres Show" had his wife on to do "the little dance." She has the best hip moves I've ever seen from a future first lady of America. Is that what we want from our leaders - performers? If you think Obama is America's savior - others agree with you - his supporters include Oprah, Ellen, Whoopie Goldberg, Michael Moore, Paris Hilton and Madonna.
I watched the first debate between McCain/Obama on Fox in full, then switched to CNN stations to hear them all declare Obama won. Only FOX commentators thought McCain won. I watched for myself and I say McCain won. McCain is a real man, a decent man who served our country, was kept and tortured in prison camp, and would have been willing to die for America. Only a real patriot would run for president, as a Republican, knowing the powerful news media will belittle, cut down and malign every thing he says. McCain is running because he actually cares for America with a passion.
I wish every one could view the Saddleback Church friendly forum on the Internet. The presidential candidates were kept separate in sound proof areas while the pastor asked each one the exact same questions in the same order and allowed them to respond without any comments from the pastor. When Obama was asked difficult questions he stalled, stammered and then talked around the subject without giving a clear answer. McCain's answers were immediate and direct. Anyone who watched this in its entirety would get a true picture of these candidate's views.
I'm a Christian, conservative and for less government, so I decided NObama for me.
