Doug Edelman, a local right-wing activist, was quoted in the article version as well as the video as saying, "The so called major media, mainstream media has universally misconstrued, mis-reported, unreported, under reported, mislead and deceived the american public with their reporting in general."
But if you look at Mr. Edelman's blog, you will find that he repeatedly questions whether Barack Obama was actually born in the United States and promotes lawsuits about whether Obama is actually eligible to be president, delcaring, "If there is any doubt in your mind as to the constitutional eligibility of Barack Hussein Obama to serve in the office of President of the United States under Title II, then you have a constitutional duty to withhold your electoral vote." Edelman has also proclaimed, BTW, that "Joseph McCarthy was right!!!" about communists hiding under every rock, just waiting to take over the U.S.
Yup, if you are legally insane and believe that Obama is a secret Muslim born in Kenya as part of a plot to take over the United States, I can see why you'd think the media has a liberal bias.
In all my years I have never met a communist as yet. Will Mr Edelman tell me where I can find one? I have conversations with every type from Socialists to Neo-conservatives, and I would like to talk to true Communist to learn that point of view.
ReplyDeleteLet's see: There are SO MANY errors with this post!
ReplyDelete1) "Birther". One who subscribes to the notion that Barack Obama was not born in the USA. From my read of the articles he's posted, Edelman points out questions of eligibility based on Indonesian citizenship aquired post-adoption by Lolo Soetoro.
2) He reported on multiple lawsuits filed. That's NEWS. What's wrong with that?
3)"If there is any doubt in your mind as to the constitutional eligibility of Barack Hussein Obama to serve in the office of President of the United States under Title II, then you have a constitutional duty to withhold your electoral vote." What's wrong with that statement? IF you DO DOUBT the eligibility of a candidate - are you NOT being IMPRUDENT by ignoring that doubt without evidence to VERIFY that eligibility?
Is not Obama's Mentor Frank Marshall Davis an AVOWED Communist?
Is Anita Dunn's praise of Mao NOT something McCarthy would have found disconcerting (not to mention the average American)?
Is not Van Jones an UNASHAMED ADMITTED Communist?
Is Marxist Philosophy not RAMPANT in this administration?
Who amongst the Czars is NOT a Marxist, a Socialist, a Gay Activist, an anti-capitalist or a one-worlder? How was Edelman wrong with his McCarthy article?
