The Media Never Did Get Around To "Vetting" Hillary. They Went Easy On Her.
Edited on Tue May-20-08 06:16 PM by cryingshame
Vetting here means the echo chamber treatment the media uses on something to intentionally do permanent damage to your candidacy.

The way they looped the few seconds of Rev Wright over and over to torpedo Obama.

And there was a lot of recent dirt on Hillary.

Clinton supporters who are now claiming the Media was against her are tripping.

1. Right.
The portrait of her as a warmongering, lying racist who's mentally unstable is right on the mark.

:sarcasm:

2. And this is why she will never be Vice President. She and Bill have so much dirt that got swept
under the rug this primary season.

It'd be a gold mine for the GOP.

3. The media has been KIND to Clinton in comparason.

Obama gets nonstop wright coverage and yet when Clinton blatantly fibs about NAFTA support. They barely talk about it.

What about Hsu and other connections the Clinton's had?

What about the rape trial decades ago she was involved in?

What about her vote against cluster bomb in civilian areas ban?

What about her saber rattling towards Iran?
