News media makes Obama a rock star

When Sen. Obama spoke in Germany, there was a free concert for German citizens.

The number one rock band in Germany, Reggeasanger and the German popular band, Reamonn, performed before, during and after Obama's speech. Also, the famous disc jockey in Germany, Mantu, was on the stage.

I did not see anything in the newspaper or on TV about these popular entertainers performing with Obama. Anyone of us could give a speech and draw a huge crowd if we have top notch free popular entertainment.

Last March, Obama was on "The View" about a week after snippets of Rev. Wright's hateful sermons first became public.

The ladies on "The View" asked Obama if he was going to leave his church where he had been a member for 20 years. Obama answered that if his minister was not retiring, he would leave the church.

Also, Obama said that if Rev. Wright had not acknowledged that what he said was hurtful and offended some people, and if Rev. Wright had not apologized for his comments, then Obama would leave the church. This show was rebroadcast on Aug. 4.

This was a lie because we all know that Rev. Wright never apologized for anything he had said. The ladies of "The View" were fawning over him and let him get away with it.

This will be the twelfth time I will be voting for president. I have never seen the mainstream media so biased toward a candidate and willing to overlook Obama's flaws and not question him on anything.

And I have never been more worried about a presidential election in my life.
