12. The NYT story about McCain alleged that McCain's ties with lobbyist
Iseman (with whom the "affair" rumor came up) resulted in some inappropriate transactions and dealings with Iseman clients whose business was before McCain in the Senate Commerce Committee, or who needed favors from the FCC, like Paxson Communications. McCain was even caught in lies several times, about the Paxson/TV station deal. He was also caught in a lie about speaking with Kerry in regard to being VP in 2004. The media dropped all the lies and allegations--gone. Doesn't matter what he does wrong, or how many times he lies or has his questionable ethics uncovered, it's gone the next day. But Obama has an old black preacher friend who sometimes sez stupid things and is sometimes angry about race--campaign killer! He'd better step down! He's lucky to still hold a Senate seat! The double standard is absurd--and I didn't even MENTION the shit on Hillary that goes down the media memory hole.
