Liberal Media Conspired to Save Obama

King David said, “The wicked plots against the just, and gnashes at him with his teeth.   The Lord laughs at him, For He sees that his day is coming,” Ps. 37:12-13.  Here’s a prime example.

It’s possible, if you’re on the Internet getting your news like you should be, that you’ve already heard this.  I have.  But I’ve not heard it so concisely presented as by Gary Bauer (Campaign for Working Families) did in a recent end-of-day email he sent out.  This is relevant to the end times (check out II Tim. 3:1-5).  Now the left and their cronies are so cock sure of themselves that they’re lying right out in open — repeatedly, this is just one example — and no one seems powerful enough to put a stop to us.  Deceit is raging in our world!

There is a shocking report today from the Daily Caller exposing a vast left-wing media conspiracy to save Barack Obama’s 2008 campaign by shutting down reporting on Jeremiah Wright.

This goes way beyond charges of media bias. This is much more than one reporter allowing his or her own opinions to slant coverage of an issue. This involves a cabal of journalists from multiple news organizations conspiring to control the news and plotting to impugn the reputations of other journalists all in an effort to aid a candidate for president of the United States. And it reflects a well-documented pattern.

After the Jeremiah Wright controversy emerged during a 2008 presidential debate, members of Journolist (an online community of liberal journalists, professors and activists) recognized the potential threat to Obama and began strategizing about how to respond. True to the Saul Alinsky playbook, their reaction was not to repudiate Jeremiah Wright, but to condemn those who dared to question Obama about his long-term relationship with Wright. Here was the plan, articulated by Spencer Ackerman of the Washington Independent:

“What is necessary is to raise the cost on the right of going after the left. …let the right know that it needs to live in a state of constant fear. … If the right forces us all to either defend Wright or tear him down, no matter what we choose, we lose the game they’ve put upon us. Instead, take one of them — Fred Barnes, Karl Rove, who cares — and call them racists.”

Change the subject by calling your opponents racists. If this sounds familiar, it should. It worked for the Left during the 2008 campaign, so it has continued doing it for the past 18 months. “Racism” became the Left’s retort to any policy disagreement. Whether it was town hall protestors worried about ObamaCare, Tea Party activists worried about out-of-control spending or Obama’s policy toward Israel, in the fevered brows of liberals, racism was always the culprit motivating every critic.

With a media establishment so willing to protect him – even willing to ignore the virulent anti-Americanism and racism of Jeremiah Wright – it’s no surprise that Obama feels free to distort the truth to advance his agenda.
