Yes, you'll be glad to know that when America is facing $4/gallon gas, and skyrocketing prices for health care, food, and just about everything else, the corporate media is focusing on the really important stuff. Namely, whether Obama did or didn't refuse to fist bump a kid the other day (the story is bogus, the kid actually wanted Obama to autograph his hand).
How is this news? Seriously. How is it news whether or not Obama fist bumped a kid this week? If they're not genuflecting before John McCain's greatness, they're reporting on every bizarre story they can to hurt Obama. Yes, don't say anything that the press deems unpatriotic about John McCain, but feel free to question whether Obama has a problem with the American flag. That's fair game because, you know, while the media knows McCain loves America, Obama is black, I mean Muslim, I mean he has a funny name, I mean, well I don't know what I mean - but you know what I mean. We need to write story after story about whether Barack Obama is "patriotic," about how he may not love the flag, we need to ask Obama if his preacher loves America, but any time anyone asks a legitimate question of McCain, Mrs. Alan Greenspan and Bob Schieffer will flip out at you. Maybe Obama should be inviting Mrs. Greenspan and Schieffer to more barbeques and donuts. I understand that once you do that, you're in like flint.
