Liberal Media Conspired to Kill Stories About Jeremiah Wright

Barack Obama with his spiritual mentor, racist Jeremiah Wright.

Ever since Barack Obama's close association with the racist, Jew and America hater Jeremiah Wright was revealed, it has been our contention that Barack Obama, who boasted that Wright was his spiritual mentor, is not fit for the Presidency.

If a Republican politician were unmasked as a follower of a white hate group, you can be sure his viability as a candidate and his career would be over in about ten seconds—as it should be.

There is no difference between the vulgar race hustling of Jeremiah Wright and some grimy white supremacist.

That Obama spent over 20 years as a faithful member of Wright's so-called church is a moral outrage. That Obama denied ever hearing Wright's hate speech—“Israel, that dirty word”—is another obvious lie from a serial liar.

We understood why the mainstream media shrugged off the story. For liberals, Obama was never Obama. He was black. A hard leftist. Identity politics are at the core of the leftist/liberal/progressive belief system.

Nothing, not truth, not decency, not even the basic journalistic ethics, would be allowed to stand in the way of this false political messiah.

Now, the Daily Caller has published a series of leaked documents—the left does not have a monopoly on whistle blowers—from a private, off-the-record email group called Journolist. This clique of seething hysterics and self-righteous progressives includes several hundred journalists, professors and activists. The emails clearly demonstrate that members of the liberal media literally conspired to ignore and downplay the Wright story. Further, these so-called journalists—propagandists is a more apt description—plotted to besmirch the reputations—“Call them racists”—of good and honest members of the political opposition.

Indeed, the charge of racism is once again being used by the liberal media against the Tea Party, against Sarah Palin, against anyone who opposes Barack Obama's far left policies. We are labeled racists because the Democrats/Progressives/Liberals have no real arguments and so they default to the most toxic charge they can conjure.

Of course, these liberals are simply projecting their own deeply ingrained racial prejudices—liberals are obsessed with race and gender—to the Conservative enemy. It's the exact same psychological mechanism whereby Hamas and Hizbullah, Islamo-fascist movements, label Israel/Jews Nazis.

Perhaps one of the most revealing and disgusting revelations comes from a well known, ahem, feminist:

Katha Pollitt... didn’t disagree on principle, though she did sound weary of the propaganda. “I hear you. but I am really tired of defending the indefensible. The people who attacked Clinton on Monica were prissy and ridiculous, but let me tell you it was no fun, as a feminist and a woman, waving aside as politically irrelevant and part of the vast rightwing conspiracy Paula, Monica, Kathleen, Juanita,” Pollitt said.

Pollitt understood that this was filthy work—she admits that Clinton is a sexual predator and a possible rapist—but she was willing to go along because, well, the ends always justifies the means for fanatic members of the radical left.

No need to wonder how a mass-murdering Communist dictatorship triumphed for so long in the Soviet Union, just gaze at the American left and we discern the identical ideological stance, strategies and authoritarian tactics. And of course these documents reveal scores of leftist intellectuals aping the Soviet hacks who disappeared and manufactured news for Pravda. Of course, not one person on this listserv mentions right and wrong, truth or falsehood. For these creatures, It's all about justifying lies and libeling the opposition.

This might be the most significant story of the Obama presidency. In fact, it is the story of Obama's presidency: the liberal media conspired to carry water for a candidate with few qualifications—suddenly, being a community organizer was the apex of a resume—for the nation's highest office. In fact, the liberal media volunteered to serve as footstool to an Alinsky thug who is now driving America to Socialism and fiscal insolvency.

Look for the liberal media to:

1. Ignore this story.

2. Charge that, duh, we are racists.

It was the moment of greatest peril for then Sen. Barack Obama’s political career. In the heat of the presidential campaign, videos surfaced of Obama’s pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, angrily denouncing whites, the U.S. government and America itself. Obama had once bragged of his closeness to Wright. Now the black nationalist preacher’s rhetoric was threatening to torpedo Obama’s campaign.
The crisis reached a howling pitch in mid-April, 2008, at an ABC News debate moderated by Charlie Gibson and George Stephanopoulos. Gibson asked Obama why it had taken him so long – nearly a year since Wright’s remarks became public - to dissociate himself from them. Stephanopoulos asked, “Do you think Reverend Wright loves America as much as you do?”
Watching this all at home were members of Journolist, a listserv comprised of several hundred liberal journalists, as well as like-minded professors and activists. The tough questioning from the ABC anchors left many of them outraged. “George [Stephanopoulos],” fumed Richard Kim of the Nation, is “being a disgusting little rat snake.”
Others went further. According to records obtained by The Daily Caller, at several points during the 2008 presidential campaign a group of liberal journalists took radical steps to protect their favored candidate. Employees of news organizations including Time, Politico, the Huffington Post, the Baltimore Sun, theGuardian, Salon and the New Republic participated in outpourings of anger over how Obama had been treated in the media, and in some cases plotted to fix the damage.
In one instance, Spencer Ackerman of the Washington Independent urged his colleagues to deflect attention from Obama’s relationship with Wright by changing the subject. Pick one of Obama’s conservative critics, Ackerman wrote, “Fred Barnes, Karl Rove, who cares — and call them racists.”

My good friend John Nolte weighs in saying that Racism is the least surprising of the revelations.

And the great Andrew Breitbart reports that even the reporters at Pravda were not such insufferable BLEEPS!
