US Olympic Committee Sanctions Bigotry Against Religion, Forces Peter Vidmar to Step Down

CNN “Journalist” host admits he advises Obama

Worse yet, Obama admits he takes advice from a CNN journalist.

Is it weird that a CNN host serves as an advisor to President Obama? The same reporter who seems to attack Glenn Beck on a fairly regular basis? Fareed Zakaria’s close relationship to the White House is a little odd for the supposedly unbiased reporter.

Zakaria says “Mostly it’s been face‑to‑face meetings. You know, it’s usually organized by Tom Donilon, the National Security Advisor. What I’m struck by… is how much time he’s spending thinking about the issues of the Arab strain, particularly the issues of Egypt, how to make it go right, what are the mechanisms that the United States has to help the moderates and liberals. It’s been a very thoughtful conversation.”

Yes, that’s a CNN reporter admitting that he and Obama talk about how to make thing go right for liberals and moderates in Egypt. Conservatives? No. Christians? No.

Associated Press Uses 2-to-1 Democrats in Obama Poll

The Associated Press has released a survey, taken on May 5-9, 2011 to measure public approval of Obama after the killing of Osama bin Laden. The poll purports to show that the president’s job approval has soared to 60 percent. Don’t you believe it.

The AP sample contains twice as many Democrats as Republicans (35% Democrat vs. 18% Republican). While party identification is, itself, a variable to be determined by polling, the normal sample usually contains an approximately equal number of Democrats and Republicans. Lately, Republicans have actually been slightly in the plurality in most statistically valid samples.
