CNN is selling Barack Obama t-shirts on their website, as if further proof were needed of the indiscreet love affair between the main stream media and Barack Obama. Read about it below.
CNN Obama T-Shirt
The main stream media has had a tingling up their legs love affair with their chosen messiah, Barack Obama, since he came on the scene with a speech at the Democratic National Convention in 2002. When he simultaneously won a seat in the U.S. Senate and began his presidential campaign two years ago, the unadulterated adulation just grew …. and grew. It became more constant and more obscene.
At first the old news tried to deny that they had become little more than the media wing of the democratic party. As Obama’s power base grew there seemed to be less of a need to pretend they didn’t have their own agendas. Who was to stop them anyway? Obama could and can command the very best propaganda videos, news reels, marketing and making that Hollywood has to offer. Spit and polished and ready for public consumption. You will hear and see what they want you to hear and see. Blemishes in style and policies will be easily airbrushed out.
We don’t really need any more proof of that. But should you want more proof, you can find it at the CNN website where they are selling Obama t-shirts. Cnn.com has Inauguration memorabilia, much like virtually everyone else. The collection of Obama t-shirts are tagged, “Some of the most historic shirts money can buy.” Yes, that’s unbiased advertising for sure.
Even the Canada Free Press is calling CNN out on this. CFP editor Judi McLeod has said that CNN is “not only cashing in on the sales of the T-shirts, it provides tangible proof that ‘The News is Propaganda.’”
Here’s one of the headlines the shirts capture: “Obama raises hand, lifts a nation”.
I am very concerned as to how far this can take the far left in their attempts to move America towards communism. They have the use of unlimited money, resources and the media. When you add those factors to the fact that Americans have an attention span that maxes out at about two days, then you can see how there could be some real trouble down the line.

Did you see the one that says “Obamas juggle inaugural balls”? I have no idea why but it makes me giggle like a 12-year old boy every time. I know it must not actually be funny because it didn’t appeal to Golf Guy’s juvenile sense of humor at all.
On a more serious note, “‘The News is Propaganda.’” Well, duh. Can anyone under 65 remember when it was anything else? I changed my major from Mass Communications to Business in 1988 because my journalism professor was such a flaming Leftist and I can’t imagine that he was much different from other journalism professors around the country at the time or since. Heck, I started blogging because of the Dan-Rather-Fake-Documents scandal.
I’m not saying that their spreading propaganda is right, obviously it’s not, it’s just a fact of modern life.
That’s where bloggers like you come in, you have to get the truth out. Preach it, Sister!

This goes way beyond being in the tank. It’s more like, move over Michelle, we are having sex with your hubby.
After Chrissy Matthew’s tingly comment, I wonder what MSNBC will come up with? Hmmmmmmmmm?
Even my local stations here in the Air Capital are still having orgasms for obama. When will the silly shit stop?

They have built such a myth around him. It doesn’t matter what he says or does, they will build it up as though its the words and deeds of a messiah, because that’s what they want him to be.
Its truly sad and more than a little pathetic.
