The media went crazy when people questioned Barack Obama's friendships---they defended their savior and said it's a distraction from the issues--yadda yadda yadda. They, for the most part, ignored Obama's shady friends, but when it comes to John McCain's great, great, great, great, great, great grandfather (what's that, like 489 AD?) who owned a slave. Of course that is front page news!
Obama and Iranian Caviar
Obama is out there as the champion of the average Joe and he knows what you are going through and he so bravely is willing to pay more taxes (as he said during the debate) because he's fighting for you! So it must have been a mistake when he and his wife ordered some Iranian caviar while staying at the Waldorf Astoria, right? Read the transcript. Insiders listen here.
It's an abortion Friday!
Abortion came up as a topic during the last debate and Obama flat out lied about his vote from when he was a State Senator in Illinois. Professor Robert George from Princeton University joined Glenn today to explain why Obama's abortion stance is one of the farthest left he's ever heard. Check out their conversation and read this article by Professor George which has one of the best explanations of why the 'pro choice' label is one of the biggest political spins of all time. Read the transcript. Insiders listen here.
Can McCain Win?
Glenn spoke with pollster Scott Rasmussen about McCain's chances on November 4th, and the Bradley effect -- what is it and will it impact this race? Read the transcript. Insiders listen here.
Entertaining clip of the day
The media has called Sarah Palin an idiot since she was announced as McCain's VP choice. The media has largely ignored Joe Biden (hmm, possibly because he's a ticking campaign killing time bomb?), so it's possible many people may not have seen this latest gaffe from Biden. While any rational human being would admit that this is just a silly mistake, just imagine if Sarah Palin or George W. Bush would have made this mistake. Watch the video. Enjoy!
Glenn's new gig
As reported on the Drudgereport yesterday, Glenn has indeed made the decision to leave CNN and continue his television career at Fox News. While Glenn is very excited about working with everyone at Fox---he will equally miss working with the many wonderful people from CNN. Get the details.
