For 8 fricking years the media gave bush and the repukes a free pass. Now everything that this administration does is subject to criticism.

Why weren't they doing their job during the bush administration?

If this isn't double vision I don't know what is

The most recent example is the sequester. They let the rpukes spout their misinformation, but 99% of the reporters do not believe they should ask these same republicans who are blaming the President for it, why they voted for it?
 
I have not heard one reporter ask a repuke that question.

The drone attacks should rightfully be questioned, however, all the garbage that the bush administration pulled, not once was this kind of stuff questioned.
 
I guess the question to the media really comes down to this:

Why do they require an African American to have a higher standard than they required of a white president?

1. Because the MSM is owned...

...by and large by rich white men.

Tax breaks for the 1% sound real nice when you are in the 1%...

2. I definitely think there is a racist element to it

Ho-hum.

The primitives being racist again, as usual.

3. You ask... "Why weren't they doing their job during the bush administration?"

You might be under the mis-impression that "their job" is to inform you.

It is not.

"Their job" is to sell advertising in order to enrich their investors.

Period.

7. You forget, this African American is a democrat

in the highest circles of power it was decided that Democrats have no right to rule over the United States. If they do things like the NLBR might happen, and we cannot have that.

The New Deal really has made the right in this country go crazy for now close to four generations, and we all know them crazy libs pushed for that, which is close to communism (I wish I was making this up, but reading a book on the history of the conservative movement right now, and trust me, I am not off)

The media sure as been tough on the idiot in chief about...

Unemployment
Benghazi
Homelessness
Tax increases
Deficit increases
Fema incompetence
Civil Rights abuses
Endless lies
Tax dollars wasted on green energy fantasies
DOJ corruption

Good Lord it sure sucks to be him. 

You stupid ****s.

everything you write sounds made up

[NHSparky]

Uh, it pretty much IS made up.

[GOBUCKS]

What is "the NLBR"?

[franksolich]

What is "the NLBR"?

National Litte Britches Rodeo Association.

Really.

Yeah the MSM has been so hard on 0bama since day one. I still recall the wall to wall coverage about 0bama's association with Bill Ayers in 2008.... oh wait.
Well when 0bama slipped up and said that he had been to 57 states it was on every channel with reporters asking if that would ruin his chances for winning.... oh wait.

Ohh I got one that time in Benghazi when they lied about the video leading to the death of our ambassador. The press hounded him day and night for answers.... oh wait.

Well there was the time the media shrugged off Marco Rubio drinking from a water bottle during his response to the SOTU show.... oh wait.

Looks like the DUmmies are wrong once again.

Yes they are. Ran into two of them this morning.....no bouncy, no conversion and no cheering.

Is it the drugs, the stupid, or do you just live on a different ****ing planet to the normal sane people ?

I guess we can strike coherent and succinct off your resume Baldidwarf.  Yeah, what book is that?

Oh, they can because the believe it.  Look at their claim, but counter that with the MSM coverage of Abu Grahib, which they tried for MONTHS to lie on Bush's feet.  Ask them how many times Bush played golf in eight years and they can tell you how many, which days, and probably tell you what he shot each time.  Ask them how many times Obama has played and you'll get a blank stare.

Different pres__ent, different rules.

Or if he went to his ranch in TX to clear brush.  The ditch witch was always near with the MSM.  I would like to compare how much money Bush in 8 spent on vacations vs the Obama's in 4.

There's probably no comparison, as the Bushes apparently cost chimp, er, chump, change when compared with Massa Barry and Moochelle.

I'll never forget that headline in a London newspaper a few years ago, when Massa Barry and Mochelle went to India, almost the whole entire U.S. Navy escorting them.

"Not Since the Days of the Pharoahs....."

I'd be afraid it would make me delusional. It obviously made the dummie that way.

About the only places I can remember Bush going to were either his dad's house or his own house which wouldn't really count as vacation--more like a stay-cation or telework.  Not much cost to the taxpayers.

Barry, on the other hand, spends money like it grows on trees.

We keep saying that, and yet they keep proving us wrong.
