Media Tweets Begin Silly Season

I borrowed "tweets" from a Salon story, which wrote about how the media is following Karl Rove's cue. Rove called Obama arrogant and then all the press calls Obama arrogant.

Now "journalists" like ABC's Jake Tapper, are saying Obama played the race card. The Wall Street Journal has an editorial on it today titled "Obama's bad turn."

Sadly, the Wall Street Journal has been a mouthpiece for Rove.

The funny thing is, Obama has been saying those lines -- about how he doesn't look like presidents of the past and how republicans try to make him seem like an Other  --for a very long time. 

He has his schtick, so to speak. Sometimes he'll mention his big ears. I've been following his campaign for some time now and no one seemed to care until McCain launched his silly ads, the official launch of Silly Season. 

Now is when the media -- biased for and against Obama -- kick it into high gear. 

Also interesting is that not a single media outlet covered the fact that McCain, yet again, couldn't answer the Viagra-birth control question at his Wisconsin town hall yesterday. He gets away with some stupid stuff. 

They did cover how proud McCain was of his ad. 

Today, McCain says he's proud of the race card charge.
