MSM Already Going for McCain's Kneecaps
Now that a candidate who represents pure moonbattery has arisen, the mainstream media will stop at nothing to see that Barack Hussein Obama is installed in the White House, from where he can carry out the key progressive objective of dismantling America in the name of Change. Already the New York Times is stooping to new lows in an attempt to break John McCain's kneecaps with sleazy and unsupported allegations.
Philanderers JFK and Slick Willie are heroes to Democrats. But Republicans are held to a higher standard, so the shady Gray Lady may manage to inflict damage with allegations that McCain had a fling with lobbyist Vicki Iseman. Unfortunately for Obama Nation, the smear job relies on innuendo and anonymous sources. Unfortunately for the rest of us, gutter journalism doesn't have to be based on fact to stoke voters' doubts.
Here's something no voter should doubt: McCain might be bad, but an immature leftist like Obama would be immeasurably worse.
On a tip from Cheetah.

yeah, i mean mccain has pretty much all but promised NO change, and at least 100 years of war in the Middle East, so he can't be all bad, right?

"Here's something no voter should doubt: McCain might be bad, but an immature leftist like Obama would be immeasurably worse."
Thats the only reason I will end up voting for Old Lettuce Head. That nonsense about 100 years of war in the middle east was a sound bite created by the DNC. Does anyone expect McCain to live to be 180 years old??? The first Clinton administration ignored radical Islam and we ended up with various overseas terrorist attacks against embassies and military housing and the USS Cole culminating with 9-11. If either Shillary or Osama wins we can probably look forward to something far worse as they will bury their heads in the sand. Not that Bill Clinton was all that bad as he cooperated with Republicans to cut capital gains taxes and reform Welfare. Bush was the opposite he cooperated with liberal buffoons like Ted Kennedy but took Islamic radicalism seriously. Both Bush and Clinton are/were mixed bags. But the current crop of Democrats running for President are truly horrifying and would make the country look like Zimbabwe.

Convenient timing on the story. Hey New York Times?

In stark contrast to the Clinton scandals, in this case both parties, McCain and the female lobbyist, deny that anything ever happened. In other words, there is NO STORY here, but that doesn't stop the NY Slimes from concocting one.
Regarding the timing, my first thought was that it would be better if they broke the non-story right before the election. But then I realized that they probably have a large stack of such hatchet jobs lined up and carefully scheduled for publication between now and November. They'll save the juiciest ones for the last week or so before the election.

Hmmm, didn't take long for McCain to bring YOU toolbags to your knees.
Soon to be followed by blind worship.
I LOVE the politics of fear.
When the neocons are on the run, that is....

Hashfamily is just picking a fight again. Whereas real Conservatives know that McCain was never our choice in the first place, but the loudmouth MSM's pick.
Aas for moral standards:

No, I'm not, Hot...let's recap!
Last week, Limpbowel draws and quarters the presumptive Rethug candidate on the radio, wingnuts hack McCain up and devour his flesh.
This week, the Pigman defends McCain's honor, and same wingnuts rally to the defense of the same man they referred to as "McShame" last week!
Baaaaaa, baaaaaa!!
The only reassuring aspect to this is that you'll all follow your own shills. Straight off a cliff.

you watch ...hashfanatic, when it's time for the general election, John McCain will be the second coming of Ronald Reagan.
Amazingly the blogger here has been desperatly reaching to drag Obama through any remote kind of mud he can find. Years later this guy is still dragging Clinton through the mud for his sexual indiscretions, yet one mention of John McCain, newly knighted wing nut hero, in an unflattering light is "stooping to new lows".
Unbelievable.

You know, before anyone is drug through the mud there is this crazy thing called "evidence" and "proof" and I think every Journalism school across the country teaches classes on how to substantiate claims made in a news story. Unfortunately the NYT, just like thier liberal following, does not operate using "facts" but rather inuenndo to manipulate the sheeple. They had zero proof and ran the story anyway. That is irresponsible... oh, I'm sorry, I used a word ya'll are unfamiliar with! Normal people will stand up for others, even people they don't like, when they are being smeared with no evidence whatsoever. It isn't because everyone "loves McCain", it's because what the NYTs did is WRONG, period. I think people would be outraged if they did it to anyone with absolutely no substantiating evidence to support the story! It is problematic because there are still many who read a newspaper and because it is in print "assume it's true". I hope McCain sues the Times for this. It would serve them right. I suppose "publishing fantasy as fact" is something ya'll are used to though.

since when do "facts", "Evidence" and "proof" matter to you?
This is a new development.
