NY Times Rejects McCain Op Ed

The NY times and my internet provider Time Warner-aol&cnn are foolishly anti-God, Anti-American and anti-conservative. If they show a picture of W Bush, he's never smiling, but obama,pelosi or "POS" like that are always smiling. The print media has dumbed-down themselves so much, they will not entertain any ideas other than their own.

New York Times equals one word TRAITOR. Shut down the anti American propaganda machine of our enemies. Those people should all be deported back to the holes they crawled out of.

Fox News has more lies and spin in every 15 minute segment than the New York times has in a month. If the RepubliKKKans don't like the fire they should have gotten out of the Bill Clinton hating kitchen long ago.

Well known liberal bill kristol writes fot NYT.

If the NY Times gave him the reasons for the rejection. . . then just rewrite the thing... like define what winning in Iraq means. what's the big deal. matter of fact it might be more effective. .. why give up? that's the problem with these candidates, whenever there is an opposing point of view. . . both don't no how to effectively communicate in the face of the disagreement disagreement. That's why neither are going to make good presidents.

The Times has a Journalistic Duty to review and reject editorials which fail the journalistic integrity test. They must be current, contain news, must differtiate between opinion and verifiable statents of fact. If opinion, some verifiable supporting citations should be included. They should also follow some semblence of the basic law of journalism, inclusion of who, what, when, where and why and if possible How. Failure to pass this litmus test must result in rejection, for politicians as well as any member of the public. Accepting an opinion which is merely a rehashing of previously published personal attacks, which fail to provide any further insight or evidence merely to provide "Balance" is poor Journalsim, is actually Bias in favor of the party providing the questionable opinion piece, demeaning to our intelligence, and contributes to the dumming down of Journalism.

I finally understand what my Republican sisters have been telling me for years. The media is shamelessly biased. Check out the BBC or Public Television for the best source of news. Also Lou Dobbs on CNN is a good place to go for news.

all libs watch MSNBC with the a-hole Mathews. He said he gets shivers down his leg when Obuma speaks POS station

It's so funny how liberals think Fox News is so biased (which it is) but can't see the NYT is exactly the same way, only on the other side. Who is surprised this???? Please!

Can someone explain how anyone is a winner in war??

The offical paper of the american communist party.They wonder why their circulations are down.

Maybe they didn't accept McCains op ed because we all know Mccain doesn't know a Sunni from a Shiite and he is still looking for Czechoslovakia.

Possibly the Times didn't print McCains op ed was because it wasn't signed off by GW Bush

How do you win a civil war butthead McBush?

Tommy Christopher,

I love The New York Times. It is by far my favorite source for news. Maureen Dowd is my favorite columnist even though she has had some things to say that were tough to here about Hillary etc. She is fair and has a biting wit that I appreciate. But, as you know by now I have often disagreed with you and David Knowles and you two are my favorites on here. Your writing styles couldn't be more different.

Recently, you wrote an article that was supposed to be satirical and even though it was dripping with sarcasm (a wonderful tool for satire), I just did not believe it was intended to be satire. Maybe it is because you discuss journalistic ethics openly and satire was the last thing I was looking for in that story. By the comments, I wasn't alone in my assessment.

Back to The New York Times. I think their call on this one was valid. John McCain is acting desperate right now in my opinion. He chided Sen. Obama into the trip he is currently on and diverted attention away from himself and his campaign.

If I recall, Sen. McCain at one point offered to show Obama around Iraq etc. which would have reinforced his assertion that Sen. Obama was not equipped to deal with Foreign Policy and was not Commander-In-Chief material.

Well, it looks like this all came back to bite him in the ass. Sen. McCain's piece for The Times seems more like a free attack ad. Good call by you and The Times.

Hey, I was thinking about Bloomberg's upcoming party for Hillary. Do you think she is thinking about a run for New York Governor?

Sincerely and respectfully,

Mr. Clark

Tommy,

That was supposed to be "hear" not "here" in the first paragraph. I felt compelled to fix one editing mistake since I have made at least one on every post I've made today. When I am tired, I think I need my own editor for comments.

Sincerely and respectfully,

Sandy (Mr. Clark)

WWII’s TOKYO ROSE IS NOW A “TRIO” [ABC/Charles Gibson; NBC/Brian Williams; CBS/Katie Couric]!

Although we needed NO more proof of media bias, this trip seals it.

McCain goes abroad to help America and almost nothing is said.

When Barack Hussein Obama goes, it’s more than news; it’s glorification of an incompetent ignoramus.

It needs to be said: this kind of stuff is treason, pure and simple.

At the least, it is not the role of a free press to support a candidate for public office in this manner.

I’d say write your Congressman, but that’ll do no good.

The only thing left for decent Americans is their vote.

The media in America is more than a disgrace; IT IS THE “ENEMY WITHIN”.

They have never vetted Obama, even though it is their job to do so. They did not tell about his ties to terrorists and anti-Americans until AFTER half of America had voted.

Furthermore, their fawning over him in the Middle East will give aid and comfort to the enemy.

Get angry — Cry Treason!

GOD BLESS AMERICA.

VOTE FOR JOHN McCAIN IN 2008.

Is it not ammusing how when a person or in this case paper does not report things, or things they way, they want them they immediately shout BIAS? In this age in America of "gotchas" and catch phrases the name calling has gotten a tad out of control. What ever happened to the ages of scholars, of information, of knowledge for the sake of knowledge and learning, not for reaffirming what one previously believed to be truth? To learn one must accept that what was preciously believed may not be true. It's a sad age I was born into. May many eyes open and mine see with more clearity in the days, months and years to come. Good evening.

The changes that Senator Obama made to his plane were from funds that supporters donated. To quote the information from above article:

“This means, of course, that the people of Afghanistan, Iraq, Jordan, Israel, Germany, and other countries will see a plane without an American flag — a plane on which the sole symbol is all about one man: Barack Obama”

I’m voting McCain if Clinton is not the nominee. There's still a chance for Clinton to be the nominee at the convention... but Obama is trying to block all efforts to have her name on the ballot for a fair nomination voting process.
