John McCain and Sarah Palin with Orange County Choppers
Heavy metal music thundered from loudspeakers. Then, barrel-chested, blond-haired, grandly tattooed Paul Teutel slowly rode a gleaming, cream-colored chopper up a ramp and onto the stage, followed by sons Paul Jr. and Mikey. The crowd cheered at the sight.
The trio are best known as the constantly squabbling stars of Orange County Choppers, a custom motorcycle company based in central New York state (no, not the other Orange County) that is featured on “American Chopper,” a long-running reality TV show on the Discovery Channel.
Paul Sr., a Vietnam veteran, climbed off the bike and leaned over to the microphone. The chopper, he said, was a special POW-MIA tribute, referring to prisoners of war and missing in action. “How many people out there love their country and the military?” he asked.
Satisfied that enough did, he noted that McCain suffered as a POW in Vietnam and said, “This bike represents that. All the people who have been POW-MIA, this bike represents that.”
McCain, standing to one side, grinned wildly. “Marvelous,” he enthused, after grabbing the mike. “Sarah and I are going to get on that chopper and ride it right to Washington and raise hell when we get there.”

..... So we accompanied them up the hill, we went right to the bus, where it was, and Governor Palin, Senator McCain, Cindy, Todd Palin, they're all standing there. We're in this inner circle with just us and them, and the Secret Service agent, and they came right up to us and thanked us for coming out, said they loved our sign, and Governor Palin immediately said, "May I hold your daughter?" and our daughter Chloe, who's five, went right to her, and I have some pictures I'd love to send you maybe when I'm done here, but Governor Palin was hugging Chloe, and then her little daughter brought their baby Trig who has Down syndrome from the bus, he was napping, and Chloe went right over and kissed him on the cheek, and my son Nolan who's nine, he thanked her.

Day after day it is the same thing as this extremely important election nears. The media blatantly refuse to inform Americans about Obama’s past in order for the electorate to make an “informed” decision as they go to the polls and vote for an individual to fill highest office in our nation - The world.
It is mind boggling and mind numbing to watch this process continue, and one can only ask, “WHY?” Would the integrity of the press be different if Tim Russert were still alive, or would the conduct of the media during this crucial election have killed Russert anyway with media credibility being destroyed before his very eyes - Something that was paramount to Tim Russert. Who do we turn to now?
The answer is very limited. And the truths regarding Mr. Obama are even more limited. When speaking to average Americans in the streets regarding Obama’s extremely close relationship [spiritual adviser] to Rev Wright, and Obama’s twenty (20) year membership to this hate spewing, anti-American church; people say, “I did not know that.” When asking average Americans who will go to the polls to cast their vote if they were aware of Obama’s spiritual adviser preaching to Obama and his congregation, “Not God Bless America, but God d— America,” you will get the same answer - “No, I was not aware of that.” Our electorate, who blindly will cast their vote for Obama respond the same way when questioned if they knew Rev Wright was delighted on 9/11 at the loss of over 3,000 lives as our nation looked on in horror as we were attacked on our own soil. No, our electorate are not informed that Obama’s ”SPIRITUAL ADVISER,” Rev Wright said, “Yeah, the chickens came home to roost!” Are Americans informed that for twenty (20) years, Obama was never provoked to stand up and leave church on any given day out of disdain for this hateful rhetoric? NO! And to leave the church a few months ago for his political aspirations does not cut it, nor does it give the media a pass not to cover it.
You can continue to pound your head against a wall, and continue asking, “WHY!” Why has the media chose to protect Obama’s hidden past, and Obama’s anti-American and anti-white close associations? But the answer remains irrational, unreasonable, and most of all perplexing.
We, the American electorate have only one weapon to battle this egregious “wrong.” Hit the media where it hurts the most - Money. Hit the advertisers sponsoring this dishonorable media bias the same way - Money.
I am proposing a media blackout for networks and sources of this unethical reporting. We all must stand together, choose a day(s) that will most impact the networks and the advertisers, and the channel(s) remain off. This is our only weapon for the electorate to be informed, instead of being lied to, and we MUST use it. And use it NOW!
Please. Please let us organize this day and spread the word. Our nation and its people are at stake. May God Bless America, and may He guide and protect us.

Here is link to a news video report of the 10,000 plus that attended:
Fox News: Palin Talks to Media (No, Not That One)
Sarah Palin still hasn’t addressed the media traveling with her yet, but she did address Media, Pennsylvania today, a suburb of Philadelphia. Clad in a red leather jacket-–possibly a motorcycle jacket–she introduced her running mate and unveiled a gift for him. A motorcycle to commemorate his service as a prisoner of war in Vietnam made by the Orange County Choppers, “Before we go to Washington to shake things up, we have a special surprise for Senator McCain. Today we have a very special veteran with us—Paul Teutul. Paul is a Vietnam veteran and the founder of the Orange County Choppers, a custom motorcycle company,” Palin said, “And they built, you guys, they built a special bike honoring all POWs and Vietnam vets and they brought it by to give Senator McCain a chance to see it up close.”
The Alaska governor told the excited crowd–also dressed in red–that a McCain-Palin administration would be more transparent and pledged her support for putting the details of which financial companies are being bailed out and the cost to the taxpayer online:
“John McCain and I want reform. We want transparency in Washington. As the governor of Alaska I did things like put the state’s checkbook online so that everybody could see where the money was being sent. We want to do the same thing in D.C. John wants to do the same thing with the treasury deal,” Palin said. “We believe that the American people have the right to know which firms the treasury is helping and what that selection is based on and how much that help will cost you. It’s your money and you do have a right to know where it’s going.”

First of all, I would like to make it clear that I do NOT support Obama but I was upset when I saw the post stating that a soldier named Cpt Porter sent an email that lied about Obama ignoring the soldiers. Go to the site http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/afghanistan.asp and you will read the real story along with a short video from the Department of Defense and view photos submitted by other soldiers that did meet Obama and shook his hand. Obama even ate lunch with the soldiers in the mess hall. At the bottom of the page there is an admission by Cpt. Porter that he did not write accurate information about Senator Obama. When I receive an email message that is trying to discredit a person, I always go to snopes or to www.truthorfiction.com to verify if the message is true or not. I don't like to see anyone be falsley accused of something they supposedly did/didn't do. Sincerely, Kakmck

Below is a very disturbing message from a U.S. soldier serving in Afghanistan as he describes Obama’s visit there. Not only did Obama egregiously snub our wounded fighting for our nation, but this soldier tells it like it really was when Obama stepped off the plane in Afghanistan.
These brave men and women are putting their lives on the line every minute of the day for months, sometimes years to fight the greatest threat to our nation in modern history - Fundamental Extremist Islamic terrorists who wish to destroy our nation.
For a presumptive nominee for CIC with an already questionable twenty (20) year close association of an anti-American ”hate” church to look down on these soldiers and not offer them even a thank you is dishonorable to them, and to our beloved nation. This is unforgivable.
John McCain suffered almost six (6) torturous years as a POW during the Vietnam War as he fought for our nation. Can one possibly imagine the kick in the gut Obama gave these brave military as he paraded past them - The kick in the gut he gives to all who have served fighting and dying for our freedom and our great nation, including John S. McCain.
Again, to the “media” coverage of Obama: It is not simply the excessiveness of it, but the truly blatant falseness of it which strikes at the heart of the media’s integrity. WHY?
Forwarded Message From Jeff In Afghanistan
Hello Everyone,
..I am not a very political person. I just wanted to pass along that came to Bagram, Afghanistan for about an hour on his visit to ‘The War Zone’. I wanted to share with you what happened. He got off the plane and got into a bullet-proof vehicle, got to the area to meet with the Major General (2 Star) who is the commander here at Bagram. As the soldiers where lined up to shake his hand, he blew them off and didn’t say a word as he went into the conference room to meet the General. As he finished, the vehicles took him to the ClamShell (pretty much a big-top tent that military personnel can play basketball or work out in with weights) so he could have publicity pictures taken of him playing basketball. He again shunned the opportunity to talk to soldiers to thank them for their service.
So really he was just here to make a showing for the Americans back home that he is their candidate for President. I think that if you are going to make an effort to come all the way over here, you would thank those that are providing the freedom that they are providing for you.
I swear we got more thanks from the NBA pla yers or the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders than from one of the Senators who wants to be the President of the United States. I just don’t understand how anyone would want him to be our Commander-in-Chief. It was almost like he was scared to be around those that provide the freedom for him and our great country.
If this is blunt and to the point I am sorry but I wanted you all to know what kind of caliber person he really is. What you see in the news is all fake.
In service,
CPT Jeffrey S. Porter

"HYPE: The Obama Effect," is a full length documentary by Citizens United which will open in select theaters September 1, 2008. New York Post reporter, David DeSario examines the take on HYPE in his own video, "Right Takes Aim at Obama."
http://www.nypost.com/video/?channel=PostElections&clipid=1458_350250&bi...
David had emailed me with a copy of my blog entry, "Obama's Trip Around the World - Short and Simple," and we spoke by phone as we discussed the excessive coverage of John McCain's opponent. During our conversation Mr. DeSario asked me a unique and mind numbing question, "What do you think would happen if we elected an Anti-American as president?" My response before I dropped the phone was immediate, "Don't you think the media should be asking Obama this question?" Isn't this question, because of Obama's twenty (20) year close association with an anti-American "hate" church and extremely close ties to its leaders (ministers if you will,) what the media's main focus SHOULD be?
David then took the conversation to the plight of African Americans as well as other minorities, and that possibly Obama could help in their desperate needs such as reforms in education. My response was that I'm of the strong belief that those in the lowest levels of poverty, including poor whites who are trapped within these institutional walls which stand as a road block to the American dream, should be free by crushing these walls.
BUT, the real question is "who" should be our leader, not only for extreme and dire social issues, but economic as well as extremely dangerous and tumultuous foreign affairs. My feelings remain. A man who chose to not only allow himself, but also his wife and children to ingest hate filled anti-American rhetoric in a church for the past twenty (20) years, only to break ties for political aspirations is not an answer to our critical national and international issues. Hate begets hate! Hate only destroys ones soul, it will destroy the soul of a nation - Our nation. And THIS is what the media's focus should be for the sake of our beloved America.
This whole issue of HYPE from my vantage point goes beyond fairness in political media coverage between two (2) presidential contenders. This issue of the media's bias and refusal to address what Obama will bring to the presidential table with his "hate" background is more at stake, and the responsibility of what I always believed was the media's job to ethically, honorably, and credibly examine. If you wish to remain an ethical, honorable, and credible media as you cover Obama, start by speaking with the grieving survivors of 9/11, and countless military lives lost in our fight against Islamic Extremist terrorism. Go ahead! Ask them! Ask them how they feel when they hear Rev. Wright, Obama's spiritual adviser, say GD America, and take pleasure in the three thousand (3,000) lives lost on 9/11. I ask you the media who feeds our populous, why are you not talking to these people in all of your hype??
I always demanded "acrediblepresident." I now demand "acrediblemedia!"
