The Obama-Supporting Media goes to the dogs

Literally.

President Dog-Eater's minions are still attacking Romney on his putting a dog in a crate on the roof of his station wagon in 1983. Even though they are looking more and more foolish as they claim Obama eating dogs isn't relevant but Romney taking his dog on vacations is. CBS, formerly the most trusted name in news, has a photo essay on presidents and dogs, showing Obama cradling his dog's head (the dog is named BO, as in Barack Obama). The 'story' is that someone released a report that dogs relieve stress, so they choose to do a photo essay on presidents and their dogs. They also happen to show Obama, the current president and the first president to eat a dog, with his dog. Either this is bias towards Obama or CBS ran out of news.

Part of what makes this whole dog scandal irresistible is that the Left can't admit that they hold anti-American and conflicting principles. Multiculturalism holds that every culture is equally wonderful except for America's. Obama put the dog-eating story in his biography because it was multicultural and un-American and therefore better. He talks about how the Indonesian muslim tradition allows animist and pagan beliefs and rituals such as the belief that eating an animal allows you to gain mystical power from the spirit of the beast. The paragraph ends with his stepfather promising that Obama would get to eat tiger. Tiger is rare and usually a protected or endangered species, certainly not an animal for the dinner table. If a bitter gun-clinger hunted the tiger, he would be attacked on the Left as a butcher and killer of a majestic animal not meant for sport. If the tiger is hunted and butchered and given to a small child on the belief that the tiger's spirit will pass to the kid, however, it is a beautiful example of a diverse and wonderful culture equal to our own. If an American kills the dog or tiger, bad. If someone from a non-Western culture kills a dog or tiger, good. Putting a dog crate on the roof of a car to take the dog on vacation means you aren't fit to be president. Eating dog as a child and talking about it in a memoir with no revulsion or shame means you are multicultural and fit to be president.

Here's a fun trick: read an article about a politician in trouble and count how many sentences it takes before their political party is mentioned. If it's a Republican, you'll be told that in one or two sentences. If it's a Democrat, they won't mention it in the first two paragraphs. A recent article about Democrat John Edwards, the 2004 VP candidate and 2008 presidential candidate who is facing thirty years in jail for using campaign donations to cover up the fact he fathered a child with his mistress while his wife was dying of cancer, never mentioned his political affiliation. He stole campaign funds from a 98-year-old woman to pay off his mistress who he was having live with his aide (he had the aide claim paternity even though the aide was married and had a vasectomy) while he was running for president. The Left can't mention his party, however. It's not like he took his dog on vacation.
