The Media and Obama: Reporters or Flunkies?

So the media falls over and swoons with Obama. Really, so what, this isn’t the 70′s anymore. In a few years the idea of them being neutral and unbiased arbitrators of what is newsworthy is completely dead, and the only watchers left are fanboi’s of their particular slant.

What I do find weird is the Dem’s covering up for their failings by plopping into the middle of the mud puddle. Dukakis sits in a tank, Kerry and his supposed military service with the questionable Purple Hearts, and now here is Obama, jumping on a plane to fly to his weakest flank, military and security. So he is a foreign policy light-weight, in many ways its not the end of the world. Why doesn’t he play to his strengths; urban renewal, a better energy policy, rebuilding the infrastructure, the financial services mess?
