Free Press?

Writes Mark S. McGrew:
"Obama was sued in Federal Court to produce his birth certificate. He refused and instead hired two legal firms to make up reasons why he shouldn't have to. The case was taken to the United States Supreme Court and they also asked him to respond. Again, he refused. Obama took an oath to defend the Constitution. Instead he speaks of changing it.
Obama has spent an estimated $500,000 or more on legal fess to keep his birth certificate from being seen. For $25 or less, or probably no more than a phone call and a fax to Hawaii he can release his birth certificate and shut everybody up, once and for all. But he won't do that." (Pravda, The Mysterious Shadow: Code Name Obama, 18.12.2009, http://english.pravda.ru/opinion/col...e_Name_Obama-0)

Not only did the U.S. and world media fail utterly to make known this disturbing question about Obama's legal U.S. constitutional status to become president, it did the opposite. This has been brilliantly documented by Bernard Goldberg in his new book, A Slobbering Love Affair (Regnery Publishing; January 2009), where he writes:

"Never in my memory were so many journalists so intent on effecting change as they were during the campaign of 2008. Sure, mainstream journalists always root for the Democrat. But this time it was different. This time journalists were not satisfied merely being partisan witnesses to history. This time they wanted to be real players and help determine the outcome. This time they were on a mission, a noble, historic mission, as far as they were concerned. In fact, I could not remember a time when so many supposedly objective reporters had acted so blatantly as full-fledged advocates for one side - and without even a hint of embarrassment.
... Make no mistake: this is not the same old liberal bias we have witnessed for years. In 2008, the mainstream media crossed a line. As a result, their credibility is in tatters. Hardly anyone trusts them anymore. This is not good for them, of course. But it may be even worse for us."
- IS THERE ANY FREE PRESS IN THE WORLD AT ALL?
