Every day there are many perfect examples of the hard core political and ideological bias in mainstream media, and just as anyone could have predicted, they prove, yet again, that their primary goals are; A. Protect democrats from any potential criticisms that may hurt their chances for election, B. Create a new and dishonest narrative that shifts America's attention from the real problems, to issues that progressives are trying to advance, and last but certainly not least, C. ENDLESSLY VILIFY REPUBLICANS!!
We had a terrorist attack on a gay club, leaving dozens dead or wounded. This could have been avoided considering how much more invasive our multiple, redundant intelligence agencies have become under Obama, and yet they failed miserably because they had this guy under surveillance, but then apparently decided he was a good guy!
Then they allowed a suspected terrorist to buy guns!! Are you kidding me? We already have regulations on the books that prevent felons, drug dealers, mentally disturbed people from buying guns!
That means that the gov't, under Barack Obama are to blame for these repeated attacks! The gov't failed, period!
But what do the media focus on mostly now, a comment made by Trump that he predicted this would happen, and his comment that Obama doesn't seem to grasp the problem. In other words, a typical political comment made by a politician is FAR more of an issue than 50 dead gay people! Do we see these activist journalists criticizing the president for the repeated failures to stop terrorist from killing people? No, never..... That doesn't accomplish their goals....
We ALL know that if any Republican had presided over this many attacks without preventing them, in spite of having a gov't that monitors millions of Americans, that Republican would be blamed and crucified by this same media.
We saw them blame Bush every time anything went wrong, for 8 years..... These people really don't care about the victims, all they care about is ideological advancement, otherwise theyd be consistent in their criticism.

A republican presided over 9-11. We found out that he ignored repeated and clear warnings and actually pushed back at the intel. We then found out the attack helped his secret day 1 agenda to invade Iraq. He even let OBL and ""the largest concentration of Al Qaeda fighters of the war" walk out of Tora Bora. Bush was not crucified.
The decision not to deploy American forces to go after bin Laden or block his escape was made by Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld and his top commander, Gen. Tommy Franks, the architects of the unconventional Afghan battle plan known as Operation Enduring Freedom. Rumsfeld said at the time that he was concerned that too many U.S. troops in Afghanistan would create an anti-American backlash and fuel a widespread insurgency.

How do you compare 9-11 to another nut with a gun? Once again a conservative posts based on ideology not reality.
VERN, why do you think Obama's been lying to the American people ? Whats motivating him to push the false narrative thats ISIS is contained when in fact its just the opposite?

Your Bush obsession is turned all the way up to 11 today VERN. Its 2016, not 2001.
I asked you a question.
Why do you think Obama's been lying to the American people about ISIS ?
Why is there such a huge disparity between Obama's ISIS narrative and John Brennans ISIS narrative ??
CIA director grave warning: ISIS dangerous as ever - CNNPolitics.com
Obama is trying to prevent a war with all of Islam because that is what ISIS wants. Is that what you want, too...a war with all of Islam?
er uh fenton, had you bothered to actually read my post you would see the reference to Bush was in direct response to yet another conservative delusion.Your Bush obsession is turned all the way up to 11 today VERN. Its 2016, not 2001.
I asked you a question.
I don't want war of any type but, sadly, we are already embroiled in a war with islam. We need to finish it.
Perhaps, some war hawks, zealots and Christians might think we're embroiled in a war with Islam....but most of us don't. Most of us understand that we are fighting a war with violent extremists who do not represent the views or opinions of the vast majority of Muslims anymore than the Westboro fundamentalists represent the views of the vast majority of Christians.
Please Vern, I know you love to lie about this stuff, but tell me what the warnings were that Bush ignored then tell me what he should have done in light of those "clear" warnings. Then tell me how you found out about his 'secret day 1 agenda.' Did Cheney tell you? Thanks. I await your predictably hackish reply.A republican presided over 9-11.

You, like Obama, engage in false alternatives. There is zero chance of a war with Islam and no one is advocating one.Obama is trying to prevent a war with all of Islam because that is what ISIS wants. Is that what you want, too...a war with all of Islam?
By "contained", I think Obama meant that ISIS in Syria where the battle is being fought was contained. It's just pure partisan stupidity to think or pretend he meant otherwise.

:roll:C. ENDLESSLY VILIFY REPUBLICANS!!
That seems highly unlikely.We had a terrorist attack on a gay club, leaving dozens dead or wounded. This could have been avoided....
Yes, and...?Then they allowed a suspected terrorist to buy guns!! Are you kidding me? We already have regulations on the books that prevent felons, drug dealers, mentally disturbed people from buying guns!

Uh, hello? The mainstream media has covered this from a variety of angles, including pointing out that banning people on the No Fly List from procuring guns would not have stopped the Orlando attack, and that there is no due process to be put on or taken off that list.But what do the media focus on mostly now, a comment made by Trump that he predicted this would happen....
And yet, the press didn't vilify Bush 43 much for governing while the 9/11 plot was planned and executed. In fact, they lined up behind him and gave him carte blanche for years, until he basically started blowing it.We ALL know that if any Republican had presided over this many attacks without preventing them, in spite of having a gov't that monitors millions of Americans, that Republican would be blamed and crucified by this same media.
It's not the media's fault that Bush screwed up in all sorts of ways, including:We saw them blame Bush every time anything went wrong, for 8 years....
The perception in the ME and Muslims all over the world think the US is fighting a war against Islam. So why would we they think that?
They certainly represent the way Mohamed practiced islam. It is religious fundamentalism and it is growing by leaps and bounds. I think "most of us" have no idea of how large and serious this threat is. That is why we aren't fixing it. But I do appreciate the politically correct reply.
A former CIA agent who did clandestine operations in the ME and Afghanistan.
One guy now speaks for all muslims around the globe. Got it.
No, it was the opinion of the many people that the agent talked to while working over 10 years in the ME.
So all muslims have thought we are at war with them for over 10 years now?
