The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

[scaeagles]

I seem to remember a whole lot about Bush stealing an election. So yeah, there was a whole lot of protesting before the Iraq war. That's when the cries of dictatorship started. He didn't care about democracy, apparently.

As far as the MSM....I could go over SO much that hasn't been in the mainstream media about Obama. Some has certain validity (how much about Van Jones have you heard except that he resigned and there was some grand conspiracy to make him do so, or about ACORN videos, knowing Obama's tight ties with ACORN....please understand I DO NOT think Obama would be supportive of the ACORN people knowingly assisting people trying to set up underage prostitution rings), others I'm sure are insane.

The video footage -- which has been edited and goes to black in some areas -- was recorded and posted online Thursday by James O'Keefe, a conservative activist. He was joined on the video by another conservative, Hannah Giles, who posed as the prostitute in the filmmakers' undercover sting.

Sonja Merchant-Jones, chair of Baltimore City ACORN, told CNN affiliate WMAR-TV that the fired workers were seasonal, part-time employees and that no senior ACORN staff members were in the building at the time the film was made.

"This film crew tried to pull this sham at other offices and failed. ACORN wants to see the full video before commenting further," Levenson said.

Just another right-wing attempt to smear ACORN.
