Check out this screen grab I just pulled from CNN.com. It's on their main webpage!!! Sorry for the size, but I wanted to make sure that everyone could see that it was an ad by "Obama for America". If it's still on their site, go there and click it. :) It's desguised as a poll. CNN is a joke, eh?
Oh, in case the link is down, it takes you here:

I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

The media really sounds like the Iraqi Information Minister...
The Obama wins is advertisement I believe. I have seen similar things on Drudge for both sides.
I notice subtle psychological tactics employed on that page, such as starting a sentence with "As President, Barack Obama will ... yada yada yada"
Putting the word President right next to Barack Obama, helps entrain the thought.
"President, Barack Obama"
Personally, no thanks!

Yeah, that's what's strange about it. It's a flash animation that says: "Debate Results" in big bold letters, then shows an image that looks like the results of some poll. If you click more information it takes you to the page to sign up for the Obama newsletter. CNN has to understand how bad this looks!!

This almost compares to the nearly identical ad that was displayed on the internet this MORNING that said McCain wins debate. Funny.....

I have stopped watching most news lately because the bias is just sickenning, the Drive by, parrot press, trained sheep media, has been parroting the evils of the republican party as told by the liberals in congress for a long time now.
The media has elected the next president, and it is up to us to make this not happen.
Oh yeah?

on CNN I've read that the debate was a tie that leans to obama, and that neither candidate scored a knock out punch.
that means McCain kicked his ass.

When Dan Rather got caught trying to use forged documents to throw the election to the Dems, instead of making the media ashamed and driving them to be more careful to be neutral, in an odd way it sort of liberated them to be even more biased.
It's pretty clear that most media people are Liberals who got into media to "change the world" back in the 1960s. They've never quite recovered from throwing the Viet Nam war to the commies.
Most of the TV news people are so old now, I'm curious to see if, as they die off, things might not swing back more towards the middle.
Then again, journalism schools are dominated by Liberals, so the next generation may actually be WORSE!
