The Obama Bombshell has hoisted the Right on their own petard...


Obama Bombshell Video Discredits the Right

The Obama Bombshell video that the Right thought would end Obama’s presidency has done nothing but discredit its Right wing peddlers on multiple levels.

CNN’s John Berman suggested on Early Start that the Drudge, Daily Caller and Fox News worked in a “seeming high level of coordination” to get the Obama Bombshell tape out to the media. I’d take that a step further and suggest that whenever Mitt Romney wants to get a message out, the Drudge obliges and then the coordination of fail commences.

Needless to say, this is not done by serious news organizations (and hence shouldn’t be done by those pretending to be serious news organizations) and the media is now starting to catch on. The Right’s days of ACORNing their opponents are numbered.

The Obama Bombshell has hoisted the Right on their own petard. It was meant to damage the President, but it damaged them; it has outed the coordination of Right wing media, it has made clear yet again that when they accuse, they distort, and it has shown them to be the boy crying wolf yet again. Thus, they have been discredited to the mainstream media. They are officially an unreliable source that is known best for deliberate distortions and for airing Romney’s dirty, pathetic, inaccurate and rather boring attacks.

Conservatives are proving George W Bush correct, “Fool me, you can’t get fooled again.”
