Where the MSM Stands

It truly is exhausting to have to constantly point out the deliberate deflection of the news by the liberal media.
Here we have a story of a presidential contender possibly committing multiple felonies and the media focuses on the state of Indiana that BTW elected a republican as governor.

Nets Devote 3x More Time to Indiana Law Than Hillary E-Mail Server Wipe

The stunning revelation that Hillary Clinton wiped her personal e-mail server clean is the kind of political cover-up that should have sent the networks into overdrive, except they had an even more important agenda to advance: smearing an entire state and its Republican governor as anti-gay bigots.  From the morning of March 27 through March 30 evening the Big Three (ABC, CBS, NBC) networks spent only 10 minutes and 15 seconds to the admission by Clinton’s own attorney that her State Department e-mails were wiped from the server that had been subpoenaed by Congress, but they devoted a whopping 35 minutes and 1 seconds to coverage of the Indiana religious freedom law.~snip~

The media want's to ensure that very few remember Hillary's emails.
I've always enjoyed fiction which is why I still watch the evening news, a habit I acquired back in the days when there were only 3 channels on TV and no net so I've seen first hand how the alphabet channels have changed.
They've become even more biased, the propaganda arm of the democrat party.

Romney Rerun?

A friend on facebook pointed me to this article

Politico Commentary: Strong Case for Romney 2016 White House Run

Former GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney insists he is not running for president for a third time, but a commentary in Politico Magazine argues he would have a reasonably good chance of pulling off the nomination for 2016.
The article was written by Emil Henry, former assistant treasury secretary under President George W. Bush. He campaigned for Romney in 2012.
Even though electoral history would suggest Romney's chances are slim, he has the advantage of being the de facto leader of the Republican Party, while no other candidate stands out in the crowded field of possible contenders, Henry wrote.
In addition, he wrote, Romney would be the only candidate in the last 50 years who wasn't a career politician.
Henry wrote this is relevant because voters' unhappiness with Obama is driven by a perception of incompetence. Romney would provide the desired contrast of someone who has experience from the business world of successfully executing initiatives.~snip~

Romney has indicated that he has no intention of running again, which I'm sure will be truly disappointing to the liberal/commie media because they won't be able to resurrect the knives they used against him in 2011.
But it got me to thinking about what the next republican nominee is going to be facing in 2015, especially if Hillary enters the race.
First the guy will be hobbled by the fact that he will be chosen by the RINO Rovian infested RNC who has already made it plain that Tea Party conservatives need not apply. He'll also be facing another round of the lickspittle media hyperventilating about electing another first.
The party that insipidly screams equality will pull the gender card out of the deck and play it for all it is worth.
The qualifications of either candidate will take a backseat to the constant refrain of shattering the glass ceiling. We run the real risk of electing another unqualified candidate to office for the simple reason of diversity.
I hope this time around most Americans will wise up enough to demand to know what kind of policies they'll be voting for.
Seeing as how most voted for "diversity" the last 2 times.
Because we now know what electing someone with no positions on anything has turned out.

After Multiple Policy Failures By Obama Hillary Grilled on 'Gay Marriage'

As Obama's foreign and domestic policies weaken the U.S. at home and abroad the vetting of Hillary for 2016 begins.
Of course the most important questions for the liberal/commie media is how she feels about "gay marriage".
10 Times NPR’s Terry Gross Tries To Get Hillary Clinton To Explain When She First Supported Marriage Equality

WASHINGTON — Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton got into a testy exchange with NPR’s Terry Gross on Thursday, as Gross tried to get Clinton to explain her views on marriage equality over time.
When Gross attempted to get the former secretary of state to explain whether she had changed her mind over time on the issue of marriage equality or whether she supported marriage equality previously but felt that she couldn’t say so due to the popular and political opposition.~snip~

ISIS is getting ready to march on Baghdad while the current administration dithers over their response, personally I'm not holding my breath that Obama will take decisive action to prevent Iraq from being over run.
We also have a humanitarian crisis at the border with 10's of thousands of children swamping U.S. immigration agents with no end in sight. The continuing scandal of the VA, Bowe Bergdahl and the Taliban swap, the IRS and plenty more if you want to list them all. 
While all this is going on the questions the media seems to be most focused on is Hillary's views on "marriage equality".
Is this the kind of stuff that we as Americans are going to base our decision on who to vote for?
The media has gone from being a irritant to becoming a danger to our republic.

Obama Dances Around Biden Endorsment

Errr....um....errr.
Some how I don't get the feeling that the Obamessiah and Joe are besties.
When the time comes I'm betting Obama's endorsement will go to Hillary as payback for her losing the nomination to him in the first place.
On the other hand Obama probably doesn't feel like wasting his endorsement.

Awww No Hillary Documentary: Update Et tu NBC?

In a lot of different ways this is kind of disappointing.

Director nixes Hillary documentary for CNN after pressure from Clinton aides

The filmmaker who was planning to produce a controversial documentary on Hillary Clinton has pulled out of the project, claiming that Clinton aides exerted pressure on him and that dozens of potential sources refused to grant interviews.
Director Charles Ferguson revealed his decision regarding the now-canned documentary for CNN Films in a column posted Monday on The Huffington Post. He cited opposition from members of both parties -- the Republican National Committee had threatened to boycott presidential primary debates hosted by CNN over the project -- but indicated the strongest resistance came from the Clinton world.
"When I approached people for interviews, I discovered that nobody, and I mean nobody, was interested in helping me make this film," he said. "Not Democrats, not Republicans -- and certainly nobody who works with the Clintons, wants access to the Clintons, or dreams of a position in a Hillary Clinton administration."
Ferguson said that after approaching more than 100 people, "only two persons who had ever dealt with Mrs. Clinton would agree to an on-camera interview, and I suspected that even they would back out."~snip~

I seriously doubt republicans threatening to boycott CNN had much effect on the decision, I've only been able to make it through 5 minutes of their "reporting" before the tears from my laughter made it impossible to see.
My guess is that Hill put the kibosh on anybody cooperating for the documentary so it wouldn't cut into any of her book sales. I mean after all why would low information voters bother reading a book when they can just watch it on TV?
I don't think it has anything to do with her worrying that the truth might actually get out there either seeing as how CNN has no problem carrying her water when she lies anyway.

Clinton says she 'misspoke' about sniper fire

Yeah that's the ticket.
One story and then never spoken about it again, I wonder if they'll remind their viewers about her less than honest assertion when she runs in 2015 like they did when she testified in front of congress about Benghazi?
Oh wait.........


update: NBC Scraps Hillary Clinton Miniseries

So who out there doesn't think Bill and Hill had this die on the vine?

Not News, Clinton Foundation is Sleezy

The news is that the New York Times wrote a story on it.

Unease at Clinton Foundation Over Finances and Ambitions

Soon after the 10th anniversary of the foundation bearing his name, Bill Clinton met with a small group of aides and two lawyers from Simpson Thacher & Bartlett. Two weeks of interviews with Clinton Foundation executives and former employees had led the lawyers to some unsettling conclusions.
The review echoed criticism of Mr. Clinton’s early years in the White House: For all of its successes, the Clinton Foundation had become a sprawling concern, supervised by a rotating board of old Clinton hands, vulnerable to distraction and threatened by conflicts of interest. It ran multimillion-dollar deficits for several years, despite vast amounts of money flowing in.
And concern was rising inside and outside the organization about Douglas J. Band, a onetime personal assistant to Mr. Clinton who had started a lucrative corporate consulting firm — which Mr. Clinton joined as a paid adviser — while overseeing the Clinton Global Initiative, the foundation’s glitzy annual gathering of chief executives, heads of state, and celebrities.~snip~

The Telegraph does a better job of translating the NYT's newspeak into plainer language.

 The New York Times takes down the Clinton Foundation. This could be devastating for Bill and Hillary

Anybody who's lived in Arkansas for any time knows that the kind of "good old boy" politics that the Clintons practice was finely honed during Bills time as governor.
What's really interesting is the appropriation of the foundation as a base of operations for Hillary.

In the coming months, as Mrs. Clinton mulls a 2016 presidential bid, the foundation could also serve as a base for her to home in on issues and to build up a stable of trusted staff members who could form the core of a political campaign.
Mrs. Clinton’s staff at the foundation’s headquarters includes Maura Pally, a veteran aide who advised her 2008 presidential campaign and worked at the State Department, and Madhuri Kommareddi, a former policy aide to President Obama.
Dennis Cheng, Mrs. Clinton’s deputy chief of protocol at the State Department and a finance director of her presidential campaign, will oversee the endowment drive, which some of the Clintons’ donors already describe as a dry run for 2016.
And Mrs. Clinton’s personal staff of roughly seven people — including Huma Abedin, wife of the New York mayoral candidate Anthony D. Weiner — will soon relocate from a cramped Washington office to the foundation’s headquarters. They will work on organizing Mrs. Clinton’s packed schedule of paid speeches to trade groups and awards ceremonies and assist in the research and writing of Mrs. Clinton’s memoir about her time at the State Department, to be published by Simon & Schuster next summer.

That right there begs the question that, seeing as how the Clinton Foundation is listed as a 501(c)930 organization, if Hillary runs in 2015 for president will the Foundation get the same scrutiny as Tea Party aligned organizations do?
