Would you classify someone who said he would probably vote for Obama as an “uncommitted” voter?
Here is what Oliver Clark, the man who asked the first question about Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, posted on his Facebook page today:
CLARK: So the Sunday before last, I received a call from the Gallop Poll. They asked a few questions regarding my choice in the Presidential election. They asked who I would vote for. I said most likely I would be voting for Barack Obama. They followed with, “is there any chance that you would change your mind”? I said “Of course anything is possible.” They then asked me as an uncommitted voter would I like to participate in the Town hall debate. I said “Of course!”
MSNBC’s First Read found this, but they didn’t highlight the part where Clark said he was essentially supporting Obama and then was picked. They decided to flag this part where Mr.Clark speculates McCain is racist because McCain suggested the American public may not be familiar with how exactly Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac worked.
CLARK: In defense of the Senator from Arizona I would say he is an older guy, and may have made an underestimation of my age. Honest mistake. However, it could be because I am a young African-American male. Whatever the case may be it was somewhat condescending regardless of my age to make an assumption regarding whether I was knowledgeable about Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
MSNBC didn’t go with the obvious story about bias, they’re running away with the raaaaaaaaaacist charge. Sort of sums up the entire race so far, doesn’t it?

Yet one more incident, one more example of the endless ways the MSM is shilling, promoting, and otherwise providing unpaid political support for Obama and the Democrites.
There was a time when the press was considered the watchdog of the Gov’t; the ally and a champion of Liberty. No more. They are arguably a threat to Liberty.
I remember well in the late 1960s and early 1970s talking about the media mergers and consolidations that were starting to take place with ever-increasing scope and size. It was ominous; a dark cloud on the horizon of our future.
That proved to be absolutely true, and we are seeing it now. And many if not most Americans are too ignorant or stupid to see it. Many Obama supporters come from their ranks.

Anyone who votes for Obama should be committed, to the nearest looney bin.
