Two great posts at Right Wing News – a serious quotable Bernard Goldberg interview and a post about the hilariously quotable website What Obama Means to Me. Samples:
This time it was different in the sense that normally (they’d put a) thumb on the scale for the Democratic candidate. This time it went from media bias to media activism because unlike with Dukakis or with Mondale or with John Kerry or any of those guys, this time reporters thought that this was a noble cause. This time they didn’t want to simply be eyewitnesses to history or even partisan witnesses to history. This time they wanted to help shape history because there was a historical component to this election unlike any other election. And even though I still think that the bias is largely the result of like-minded people getting together and doing the same job, I do think that they felt that they were on a special mission and crossed a very bright line from media bias to media activism.
and Obama continues to be all things to all people – the ultimate multi-tasker! From the What Obama Means To Me website:
On education and hard work:
What Obama means to Cris Albama, USA – 25 Feb 2009
Obama taught that with the right logo and marketing campaign I can have anything I want.
On internationalism:
What Obama means to Nils Goesche Berlin, Germany – 25 Feb 2009
Pessimist: “We could not possibly do any worse.”
Optimist: “Yes we can!”
On free speech, with a religion lagniappe:
What Obama means to Tommy T Texas, USA – 25 Feb 2009
I am looking into seeing if this vandalism can be considered a Hate Crime. I will turn all of you Freepers in. If the police won’t get you, I’ll also give ACORN all your information so they can stop you from your hatin on Obama.
What Obama means to Tommy T Albama, USA – 25 Feb 2009
Free Republic and all other wingnut sites should be banned from the internets. You don’t get free speech if you abuse it. Obama wants to feed everyone, give them homes, make it where they don’t have to work, stop unfairness and racism, end global warming, and stop the sea levels from rising. If you want to stop this, you must be ntohing but hate and the enemy.
Jesus only fed five thousand, Obama will feed three hundred million- who is more important?
On history:
What Obama means to Mark Arkansas, USA – 25 Feb 2009
He means the Fulfillment of the promise made by Khrushchev at the US all those years ago!
On terrorism:
What Obama means to Osama Bin Laden JackWhachistan, Afghanistan – 25 Feb 2009
Obama means the death of America and that we get to blow people up without interference! That’s pretty cool.
On family:
What Obama means to Ted New Jersey, USA – 25 Feb 2009
Obama means…
Big Brother
On bipartisan politics:
What Obama means to lee Colorado, USA – 25 Feb 2009
A Democrat for 35 yrs, I reluctantly find that I am now a (gasp) Republican. The man scares me to death.
