What if George W. Bush had done that?

By JOSH GERSTEIN,Politico

The media ignores Obama’s actions where they blasted Bush

A four-hour stop in New Orleans,on his way to a $3 million fundraiser.

Snubbing the Dalai Lama.

Signing off on a secret deal with drug makers.

Freezing out a TV network.

Doing more fundraisers than the last president. More golf,too.

President Barack Obama has done all of those things — and more.

What’s remarkable is what hasn’t happened. These episodes haven’t become metaphors for Obama’s personal and political character — or consuming controversies that sidetracked the rest of his agenda.

It’s a sign that the media’s echo chamber can be a funny thing,prone to the vagaries of news judgment,and an illustration that,in politics,context is everything.

Conservatives look on with a mix of indignation and amazement and ask:Imagine the fuss if George W. Bush had done these things?

And quickly add,with a hint of jealousy:How does Obama get away with it?

    THERE ISN'T ANYONE TO STAND UP TO THIS IMPOSTER-AFRAID OF WHAT THEIR PUNISHMENT WILL BE-IF THEY DARE OPPOSE HIM!! HOW SAD IT IS GETTING-TO NOT PUNISH THIS CHICAGO MOB –COMMUNIST-WHO IS TEARING DOWN THIS COUNTRY FASTER THAN YOU CAN BLINK.WAKE UP AMERICA-TAKE CARE OF THIS BULLY AND GET OUR COUNTRY BACK FROM IMPOSTERS. SOME ONE-PLEASE-HAVE ENOUGH "BALLS"TO TELL THE IMPOSTER WHERE TO GO AND DON'T FEAR HIS COMMUNISTIC IDEAS. HE IS ONLY DOING-WRIGHT,AYERS AND ALL THE REST OF THE COMMUNISTS-PLANS TO DESTROY WITHIN-AS FAST AS THEY CAN. GET RID OF THIS IMPOSTER-ILLEGAL ALIEN -WHO IS SPENDING MILLIONS TO HA VE HIS LAWYERS COVER HIS DIRTY DIRT. HE KNOWS HE ISN'T A LEGAL CITIZEN BUT PAID OFF-MILLIONS SO THOSE IN THE KNOW WOULD KEEP THEIR MOUTH SHUT. SHAME-SHAME ON ALL.

    • Agree with you 100%. "OOO"is an imposter,a thug occupying the oval office. The American people were duped into believing this man. I think the voting machines were rigged and thousands of voter registration forms submitted that were fraudulent. That's my opinion.

      Bert,
      You hit the nail on the head.This phoney has but one goal in mind and that is to take this country down.Why the media is giving him a pass on every thing is beyond me.Even if he is only a Carter one term President he will do so much damage in four years that it will take 12 years to repair.

  • Our hope is,the move by Phil Brown in his IMPEACHMENT movement on the net;and it's making great strides. Not only that there is the Calif. case in court that is slated to be heard of "OOO's"birth certificate. Let's hope these are successful. He needs to be removed before America falls. He is an enemy of America sitting in the oval office doing whatever he can to destroy her.

    We must prove in court that he is not a citizen of the US,Then put him in jail for lying to the American People.
