OB(ama)SESSION

Without getting too political here, can I just vent for a minute about "Obamamania"...or "Ob(ama)session" (Like my play on words, there? You can use it if you want to.)For real, when will it stop? At Barnes and Noble, this was the current events magazine section




I swear I didn't rearrange the magazines for dramatic effect; it really is that ridiculous! He was on an additional cover in another section, so that makes at least FOUR magazine covers for him this month. He has been on the cover of Time 7 times this year, as opposed to McCain's 2. It's pretty unfortunate that the media is so obviously biased, and is not making any apologies for it. They all but admit that they are biased, but that McCain just isn't as intriguing. Hmmm...I, for one, am sad that our "freedom of the press" has seemingly turned into propaganda. We'll see if McCain is on 5 magazine covers at the same time when the RNC comes. Doubtful.

*Vent Done* :)

I totally agree. I think we should just have 2 documents for the whole election process. 1 for Obama and 1 for McCain listing their experience, vision, course of action, and moral beliefs that will effect how they will run the country. No more, no less, no media. :)

I know what you mean! I was at the grocery store the other day. On one gossip magazine, there was a picture of Obama and his family: the title, "My life with my girls". On another was a picture of Sarah Palin: the title, "Babies, lies, and scandals" or some such thing. It's ridiculous how biased they are! But, McCain is definitely getting more attention now that Palin is on the ticket.
