Except he never mentioned race and this wasn't preemptive anyway.

So you're going with Gibb's explanation that his remarks were about years of experience in DC?

Keith Olbermann wasn't even buying that.

Those who have been claiming that any critism of Obama is gonna be called racist are starting to look prescient.

Are you just going to keep ignoring me in this thread, Fern?

We're not talking "ANY" criticism. I'm open to valid criticism and would have more than a few of those myself. But this is dishonest BS on the level of the bully hitting the wimp with the wimp's fist saying "Quit hitting yourself! Quit hitting yourself!"

Pal, if Hillary couldn't beat Obama, then she could never have beaten McCain.

I'm totally sure that many San Antonio Spurs fans believe their team would have beaten the Celtics in the Finals easily, but unfortunately for them the Lakers beat the Spurs first.


..the media was in the tank for the obama from the get go. she lost all her willing accomplices in the media when they realized it's better to support symbolism over substance thus the obama.

Dude, he even said "Because I'm black?" in one of the speech.

Yes, because the moderators in a nationwide televised debate this spring questioned the patriotism and religious beliefs of the white candidate?

No, in fact, they didn't.

I already asked you to quit trolling your usual ignorant one-liners.

Let me clear, you're a moron. And until you finally some miraculous day decide to start taking some responsibility for what you say and backing up your whacky outlandish accusations with at least some logic and facts, I'm going to keep calling you that.

Hillary had the media around her finger until she lost Ohio. She still has large and powerful factions of the media, like the NY Times, strongly in her corner.
And finally, there is no single "the media" in the US that acts, thinks, and reports as one. Not even remotely. Using that sweeping a generalization just makes you look stupid and ignorant of the obvious reality in front of all our faces when we all the different media sources and all their different biases and spins.

I don't think I've failed to respond any of your posts to me in this thread, at least not pruposefully.

If you think there's one (or more) I've overlooked, PM the date/time stamp on the post of yours and I'll respond.

TIA

but that's unfair... the Lakers got too many points... there should be a windfall points tax to give some points to the poorer teams who would then be more equal...

cross thread pollination strikes again...


I still see Kobe going to the free-throw line, and the replay showing that either nothing occurred, or the foul was committed by him.
