Poor perception. The media is obviously against him. Life is so unfair!

NYT REJECTS MCCAIN''''S EDITORIAL; SHOULD ''''MIRROR'''' OBAMA
Mon Jul 21 2008 12:00:25 ET

An editorial written by Republican presidential hopeful McCain has been rejected by the NEW YORK TIMES -- less than a week after the paper published an essay written by Obama, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

The paper''''s decision to refuse McCain''''s direct rebuttal to Obama''''s ''''My Plan for Iraq'''' has ignited explosive charges of media bias in top Republican circles.

''''It would be terrific to have an article from Senator McCain that mirrors Senator Obama''''s piece,'''' NYT Op-Ed editor David Shipley explained in an email late Friday to McCain''''s staff. ''''I''''m not going to be able to accept this piece as currently written.''''

In McCain''''s submission to the TIMES, he writes of Obama: ''''I am dismayed that he never talks about winning the war%u2014only of ending it... if we don''''t win the war, our enemies will. A triumph for the terrorists would be a disaster for us. That is something I will not allow to happen as president.''''

NYT''''s Shipley advised McCain to try again: ''''I''''d be pleased, though, to look at another draft.''''

[Shipley served in the Clinton Administration from 1995 until 1997 as Special Assistant to the President and Senior Presidential Speechwriter.]

............WHY are America''''s news outlets filled with EX-DEMOCRAT political personnel ????

Iraq is a foolish theocracy hiding behind a puppet government calling itself a democracy. You can''t have a democracy based on the KORAN, for goodness sake.

Iraq will collapse. It will collapse whether we get out now, 5 years from now, 20 years from now or FIVE HUNDRED YEARS FROM NOW. It doesn''t matter. Any theocracy cannot last. Any government built on religion cannot last. It''s like building a house of cards on a raft in a hurricane. You can''t even get a good start.

This is the failure GW bush the the republicons have given us.

Time for a change.

Arabs say this all of the time... if we leave Iraq too early, then the country will collapse. It is in Iran''s best interests to keep Iraq weak in the region.
