For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. ---Ephesians 6:12


"The age of casual Catholicism is over; the age of heroic Catholicism has begun. We can no longer be Catholics by accident, but instead must be Catholics by CONVICTION." ---Fr. Terrence Henry TOR, Franciscan University of Steubenville

MSM's Obama Bias Will Be Damaging For Country

This is how I blog when I'm in a big hurry.

From Laura Ingraham's E-Blast:

[NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS AT THE LOS ANGELES TIMES

What if a few years ago John McCain had partied the night away with a house-full of assorted terror sympathizers and Fox News had a video of the festivities that it refused to air? The national media would not stop until they shamed Fox into releasing the tape. According to National Review's Andy McCarthy, the Los Angeles Times was given a copy of a tape of Sen. Obama at a farewell party in 2003, held in honor of Rashid Khalidi, the erstwhile terrorist mouthpiece for Yasser Arafat. The newspaper has declined to release the tape. Yesterday we asked listeners to write the Times and demand that the tape be made public. Here's one response:

Subject: RE: Not read: The L.A. Times Suppressing Obama's Khalidi Bash Tape?

Thanks for your note. More than six months ago the Los Angeles Times published a detailed account of the events shown on the videotape. The Times is not suppressing anything. Just the opposite -- the L.A. Times brought the matter to light. Please read the article at: http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/washingtondc/la-na-obamamideast10apr10,0,3025411.story Thanks again for taking the time to write.

Nice try, Jamie. How can the Times possibly argue that the content of this video is not newsworthy?! It's one thing to read what Obama said at the party--it's another to hear him talk about "his friend" in his own words. Big shock that with this lack of news sense and obvious pro-Dem bias, the Times is bleeding money, losing circulation, and laying off staffers.] (end of E-Blast)


It is obvious to most people, especially Hillary supporters, that the Main Stream Media is extremely biased in favor of Obama. Never in recent memory has the MSM ever sold their souls for a candidate. Makes one wonder if several of them have been paid off from the hundreds of millions that Obama has received from "donors" both here and abroad. But the last time the media really came down on one side vs. the other was in 1992 (though not as badly or more obvious than today) in showing their support for Clinton over Bush '41. That resulted in many Republicans accusing Clinton and the Media of "stealing" the election. And I don't have to remind anyone of the seething hatred felt toward the Clinton administration for eight full years. An Obama victory under the current circumstances may result in a country more polarized than anytime since the Civil War.

Yet Another Horrific Sarah Palin Scandal!

It has just been reported that many many years ago (it isn't known exactly how many, but it's never too many when Republicans are involved) before Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin married her husband Todd, that he recorded on his VCR a baseball game between the Giants and Dodgers. He did this wantonly, without the expressed written permission of Major League Baseball or its affiliates. Todd Palin could not be reached for comment (we lost his cell number).

It should be noted that it's not quite against the law to record baseball games on one's own VCR for private viewing, but we here at St. Blogustine (me, myself, and I...and sometimes my cat) are disturbed by the appearance of impropriety suggested by this reckless, youthful indiscretion.

An unknown source reported the following unsubstantiated reactions:

Senator Charles Schumer-- "He should have faxed the request! I would have...hell, anyone would have!"

Senator Barack Obama-- "That is not the Todd Palin I...guess I...uh... never really knew anyway...I guess."

Senator Hillary Clinton-- "Well,...I dunno...I've always been a Yankees fan."

Okay okay, this is all a load of dreck! But I hope the point isn't lost on anyone. A lot of mud is being slung at the Palin family, not just the candidate. From a 22-year-old DUI from the husband (who must have gotten it about the same time Obama was snorting cocaine) to Trooper-gate, in which Governor Palin fired the man who was supposed to fire (and didn't) her state trooper ex-brother-in-law who tasered his 10 year old step son.

The liberal leftist media are betting that their readers are not reading beyond the headlines, like the provocative one found on the cover of a recent 'US' Magazine issue--Babies, Lies, And Scandal. While the headline implies that Palin lied, the actual article makes it fairly clear it was others who lied about Palin. Ten thousand subscribers and counting have cancelled subscriptions to that magazine because of this. It's called a backlash...and the leftist media better get used to it. In fact it may be the tipping point that loses the election for Obama.
