Why conservatives can't whitewater Obama

The Republican Noise Machine is falling on deaf ears
Twenty years ago, conservative media mavens seemed able to turn any minor flap into scandal gold, be it a decade-old land deal that lost money or a mundane replacement of White House travel office staff. They even pressured Bill Clinton, early in his first term, to accept an investigation led by an independent special prosecutor, which years later led to his own impeachment. Liberals, in disturbed awe of the Right's ability to control the media narrative, dubbed the conservative media the "Republican Noise Machine."
Yet today, no matter how loud conservatives scream "Benghazi," "Solyndra," "Fast and Furious" and even "Intim-O-Gate" (Glenn Beck's failed attempt to brand the IRS and leak investigation controversies), President Obama glides past. His poll numbers remain relatively stable.
That is because they have the liberal media covering for Obama. It is propaganda. :bs: :mental:

I see only failure from owebuma on all fronts. I do not think his failures and people's resulting opinion of him reflected in the polls.

Water's World did another man-on-the-street interview over the NSA scandal. Only about 10% even had a clue what it was about, and most of them were okay with it, if Obama was doing it.
