U.S. Mainstream Media – The New “Tokyo Roses” and “Baghdad Bobs”
It’s futile – Obama will be re-elected. Yankee Go Home!
I’m now nicknaming any supposed “un-biased” press touting Obama – “Tokyo Rose”
UPDATE: Women media get called “Tokyo Rose” – Men get called “Baghdad Bob” – I’ll keep Thomas nickname “Tokyo Rose”

As race stands, Obama within reach of second term
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Five weeks to Election Day, President Barack Obama is within reach of the 270 electoral votes needed to win a second term. Republican Mitt Romney’s path to victory is narrowing.
To overtake Obama, Romney would need to quickly gain the upper hand in nearly all of the nine states where he and Obama are competing the hardest.
Polls show the president with a steady lead in many of them as Romney looks to shift the dynamics of the race, starting with their first debate Wednesday in Denver.
“We’d rather be us than them,” says Jennifer Psaki, an Obama spokeswoman.
But Romney’s running mate Paul Ryan says there’s time for the GOP ticket to win. “In these kinds of races people focus near the end, and that’s what’s happening now,” he told “Fox News Sunday.”
If the election were held today, an Associated Press analysis shows Obama would win at least 271 electoral votes, with likely victories in crucial Ohio and Iowa along with 19 other states and the District of Columbia. Romney would win 23 states for a total of 206.
To oust the Democratic incumbent, Romney would need to take up-for-grabs Florida, Colorado, Nevada, North Carolina, New Hampshire and Virginia, which would put him at 267 votes, and upend Obama in either Ohio or Iowa.

Maybe after Romney wins the media will be tried for treason and promptly executed….because they’re guilty as hell.

Don’t forget being an accomplise to starting the riots in the major cities when the Obummer voters think they’ve been cheated when polls showed the Man-Boy up by 15 points.

What worries me latey is that this may signal “the fix” is indeed in after all. And this is pre-emptive, such that the media will be saying after that BO was leading in the polls going in, so of course he won the election basically.
I pray not of course..

It’s crappy articles like this that make it so much fun to post over there and take pot shots at the Lefties.

Speaking of the fraudulent media, I just found this posting today showing absentee ballot data is not looking good for Democrats.
I thank God for the Internet otherwise I’d be drowning in an ocean of liberal lies.

The MSM now equals Little Lord Haw Haws. That they support a Fascist in the White House in no coincidence.

My response to Dead Media is akin to pelosi’s rebuke to the American people regarding oh-bah-mahcare: “You’ll just have to wait until the election to find out what’s real.”
(I think they really do believe this crap they read on their prompters.)

One small note of warning:
I’ve also noticed some calling Conservatives who are critical of the Romney Campaign “Tokyo roses” as well.
Though this *may* be justified in some cases, for the most part there is much to be gained/learned from well-placed criticism about Romney’s “dare to be cautious” Campaign to-date.
The danger is that an atmosphere is created in which only the “YES MEN” are listened to, and errors go unseen/unheeded until it is too late to correct.

They have to bullshit the uninformed to keep them from voting for the American.
Propaganda war is right. I miss the truth.
