DON'T BE FOOLED: Rupert Murdoch, CLINTON'S BFF is at it again.
Edited on Fri Apr-25-08 08:31 AM by Skwmom
Rupert Murdoch, Clinton's BFF is trying to paint Obama as nothing more than a fund raising machine who does not have middle class values, sensible national security plans and by the way is nothing more than a big spending Democrat (while cheer-leading for Clinton).

"I believe the cement set around the Clinton coffin last Friday. The Obama campaign announced it had received the support of former Sens. Sam Nunn of Georgia and David Boren of Oklahoma. Both are what some of us nostalgically call Serious Democrats. They represent what the party was, but is no more: sensible on national security, spending and middle-class values. Obama receiving their imprimatur is like hands reaching out from the graves of FDR, JFK and LBJ to announce: "Enough is enough. This man is your nominee. Go forth and fight with the Republicans." Make no mistake: Superdelegates with sway took notice."

Sam Nunn and David Boren by political temperament should be in her camp.... (b/c it is Clinton who is the "serious" Democrat)

Big deal that they said Obama is the nominee. It's the same game they play with their so-called endorsements which are REALLY anti-Obama, pro-Clinton. Don't let the Clintons fool you. They are still good buddies with Murdoch and I'm sure they are counting on him to help out with their 2012 strategy. Notice how the piece INFERS that Hillary Clinton is sensible on national security, spending and has middle-class values. The Clintons and Murdoch are still still BFF.

Anytime a Murdoch owned tabloid is posted, they should be called on their lies and manipulation. Anyone who has paid close attention during this primary is aware that Murdoch has been helping out the Clintons from the very beginning.

Edit: By stating in the piece that Obama is the nominee, they know that it will be posted on all the liberal blogs allowing them to tear down Obama and prop up Clinton. It's the same game they played with the fake endorsements for Obama.

1. At it "still," not "again."
He never stopped.
