It's rewrite time again for Obama
Clarice Feldman
Steve Glbert catches Obama rewriting (without acknowledging he's done so) his pledge on dealing with Iran.
And Patterico reports that the entire Der Speigel interview with Maliki was rewritten by the magazine:
The weather's nice in most of the country. It's obvious that about 95% of the information the media is feeding us is wrong, and their attention is focused on a man who changes his position on the hour. Go outside and get some fresh air!

The Press is becoming a national security issue.
A few people at the top of news outlets can do what Hugo Chavez and his ilk does.
It's not too bad yet, maybe. But it's real.

Ron: You sir are dead-on right.....for the first time I am beginning to see how the press caused the loss in Vietnam.....at the time I did not recognize their true power.
They are dangerous because we do not really have a free press.....not at the level of mass information.....Fox and the internet certainly helps....but we have a long way to go.
There are probably less than one hundred people from the New York Times to the big nets.....who choose what is news. It's what they leave out that scares me.

Who cares what Barack says today?! It is change! We are the change that we have been waiting for! And we, US Americans, we believe in the change that we can change! And we can change the beliefs in change that need to be changed! We can change! Barack can change! Everything must change!

Josephine Berke - BRAVA!!!! We all need to get to Enough Already! He is overexposed on every level - the good, the bad and the ugly. In fact, I think McCain has taken himself out of the headlines this week so that everything becomes Oversaturated Obama.

The press did not cause the loss in Viet Nam. They were just enablers.
The loss was caused by cowardly citizens and self-interested politicians (sound familiar?).
We get the government (and the press) we deserve.

Josephine, Tired of hearing the truth? I guess you prefer to be oblivious to the world and inhale whatever the MSM decides to tell you, whether or not it is actually factual.
The fact is, sites like this, (the one you chose to read knowing full-well it was going to be about Obama) helps offset very slightly the incredibly biased media. If it wasn't for sites like this, we would have no idea what a horrible Presidency Obama will bring. Instead we would be snowed over with wonderful thoughts about Barry.
The media has incredible and terrible power to affect things like this. We can not let it tell us only one side.
Thanks Clarice for this article. Bring it on.
