More on topic: LOL Febreeze. I’m loving the man-crush between these two.

There are plenty of other Obama gaffes though.

There have even been academic studies that confirm the bias.

WTF?!

The definition of a recession is two consecutive quarters of negative growth. There hasn’t even been one quarter of negative growth yet, but the MSM are talking the economy down.

And while unemployment has risen slightly, it fell significantly during Bush’s term. But that wasn’t given the same coverage.

AP and the like are mostly staffed by Democrat supporters, and they form the news to promote their political agenda. It’s best to assume they’re lying unless it can be proven otherwise.

In just a few short months, Obama has racked up an impressive array of gaffes. My name is linked to a handy collection of them.

I agree the media slants a lot of what they report one way or the other. But at some point, you have to recognize the facts in this slanted reports.

In Israel, Obama said:

“You don’t just have to look at a portion of my words. You can look at my deeds. Uh, just this past — uh, this past week we passed out of the U.S. Senate Banking Committee — which is my committee — a bill to, uh, call for divestment from Iran as a way of ratcheting up the pressure to ensure that they don’t, uh, obtain a nuclear weapon.”

But he’s never been on that committee. It’s just a plain, casual lie that’s so blatant as to defy belief. What sort of arrogance makes a man think he can get away with that?

Sadly, the mainstream media did let him get away with it. Obama’s campaign team includes the New York Times and MSNBC.

Like Bush, he was often portrayed as a moron by his contemporary enemies. They misunderestimated him.

Your Obamessiah is an empty suit, as will rapidly become apparent the more exposure he gets.

Wall Street expects a Labor Department report today will show the economy shed jobs for the seventh straight month in July. Economists polled by Thomson/IFR predict that payrolls shrank by around 72,000, beyond the 62,000 positions eliminated in June. So far this year, the economy has lost about 438,000 jobs.

The Labor Department releases July employment numbers today, a day after news that the economy grew at a lower-than expected pace in the second quarter. The unemployment rate is expected to have risen to 5.6 percent from 5.5 percent, and could rise more as the lack of credit stunts businesses’ expansion plans.

The employment report, often regarded as the most important economic reading on Wall Street, gives investors insights into the health of the consumer. People who have lost their jobs or are worried about being out of work are likely to spend less, a disturbing prospect for investors as consumer spending accounts for more than 70 percent of U.S. economic activity.

The American economy expanded more slowly than expected from April to June, the government reported Thursday, while numbers for the last three months of 2007 were revised downward to show a contraction — the first official slide backward since the last recession in 2001.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) — The economy, boosted by $90 billion in stimulus checks, grew at a faster pace in the spring but not as strongly as expected, the government reported Thursday.

The Commerce Department also lowered its readings on growth in the two previous quarters, resulting in the first contraction in the economy since the 2001 recession. The report is likely to spur further debate over whether the economy has fallen into a recession.

The gross domestic product, the broadest measure of the nation’s economic activity, grew at an annual rate of 1.9% in the three months ended in June. That’s up from a revised 0.9% growth rate in the first quarter.

Still, the reading was weaker than expected, as economists surveyed by Briefing.com had forecast growth of 2.3%.

The first-quarter reading was revised lower from a 1% growth estimate a month ago.

The Commerce Department revised the fourth-quarter 2007 reading to a decline of 0.2%. The previous fourth-quarter reading was 0.6% growth.

They kept us safe from the threat of nuclear annihilation or Communist takeover.

A proud legacy indeed.

It’s only the racist affirmative action mentality of the Democratic Party that has put him in this position.

On top of that, the way you throw in the phrase “Affirmative Action President”, could you be blowing that old dog whistle any harder? Quit playing at civility and just throw out one of the more obvious epithets you’re biting back from the tip of your tongue…we can almost smell from here just how badly you want to…

Besides, Reverse Ace McCain (personally destroyed 5 or more US aircraft) only got his spot in the Naval Academy because his daddy was an Admiral…but then, hey I guess actually having life handed to you on a plate is only OK if you’re a Republican scion, right?

We don’t need an Affirmative Action president.

The only recession is the one in your mind, from believing the liberal media spin.

All hype and no substance.

You hate hearing about it because it’s true.
