1. I remember last week
when Mcfullofshit was ahead by four points the media was going wild and pretty musch insinuating that Obama was dead on arrival. NOw that the polls have switched to reflect the same numbers as Mccain last week, i don't see any of the media pundits pouncing on how dead is McCain.. As a matter of fact, i was watching MSNBC this morning with some blond woman as host and said although OBama was up, the polls reflects an statistical dead heat and are both running even..
contrary to what I heard last week.. By the same points Media was buring Obama.

This double standards really pisses me off...

2. The media were warned and threatened post 9/11
to be "patriotic" i.e. pro Repukes .... and they won't come out of it until there is a demonstration in all US cities against the MEDIA.

Someone needs to organize this quickly.

5. Yup. That's if they mention the polls at all. When McPuke was leading
that's all we heard 24/7. Now that Obama's back on top they grudgingly mention it, if at all.

7. Someone MUST take the lead
AND organize a MAJOR rally against the MEDIA.. if it is done througout the country with FORCE it will push them to report it.

WE MUST HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE. I will follow suit if i am told something like is being organized.
We can't have a free society and true democracy if we don't have a free press. It is just appalling what the media IS NOT REPORTING during this election. Serious issues are at stake that could affect our lives for the next 20 years. This is not about republicans and democrats, it is about us, the American people.

Everyday i wake up and feel frustrated at the media/press. What they are doing to us is disheartening.. (sp)?

what gives me hope is what i did yesterday for the campaign. It was my first time volunteering for Obama. The Latin supermarket where i stood for eight hours yesterday under a tremendous heat asked me to not be partisan (otherwise i would be thrown out of the front of the place), 98% of the people i registered were democrats and fully vocal in support of Senator Barack Obama. I could not celebrate this event because i had to keep my composture of being "bipartisan" but inside i was happy, smiling and feeling hopeful.

The Latin Community really knows what's going on and are terribly hurting during these difficult times. I admire their awareness. When I went back to the campaing's office to turn in the registration cards everyone was very excited that i have done so well in my community!!.

Let's stick it to the lying Media!!!

9. I do not believe the d... polls
I believe the polls of 1,000 to 2,000 people are bias and that
Obama has a larger lead...
Every year the same thing happen.  Republicans control the
numbers to make the race close so it doesn't look as bad when
they steal another election in the months before the race.
I can not believe a bungling lying idiot like McCain and his
lying bull dog could attract that many idiots.

A poll of 2,000 voters amount to 40 voters a state.   Could
you pick your own results with this type of polling of
individuals.

**********
Same thing will happen again and nothing will be said or
done...

Harvey Wasserman, author and lecturer, told the International
Press Service,

"As far as I'm concerned, this election was clearly
stolen. What they did in Ohio was systematically deny
thousands of African Americans, and other suspected Democrats,
the vote.

"It was like Mississippi in the fifties, and it was
deliberate ... had there been enough (voting) machines, and
had people equal access to the polls with a reliable vote
count, there is no doubt that John Kerry would have carried
Ohio."
