Thanks to listen Bill O'Reilly in -- week there's a -- segment tonight you may know mr.

Goldberg and I've been analyzing how the liberal media is treating the Obama administration much of the coverage.

Has been soft to say the least however recently.

There's been -- tone change in someplace it's.

Let's not mince words economy stinks let's take a look at at the trend this is not just a one month blip look at these numbers.

There in the first part of -- the second quarter 800077.

Past 68 -- and that's the worst quarter of job creation in two years.

-- -- -- the president talking about how we vacationed as a child on Greyhound bus isn't going to Howard johnsons are -- Joe's a contrast to Mitt Romney who is in New Hampshire on his speed boat and on jet -- so I think this.

Interesting sub text of the relate the campaign is coming out about it.

Which is essentially class warfare.

-- -- invested very heavily in the -- capital.

Element of trying to it.

Convince people of what Mitt Romney is about and yet this particular ad got four Nokia's from the Washington Post which is not.

True.

Joining us now from North Carolina the purveyor of Bernard Goldberg dot com you should go over nine -- -- before we get to this analysis you have a comment on waters world.

But this is a serious point -- people in waters world who thought the declaration of independence was signed like in 1964 whatever.

They should not be allowed to vote here's why.

Now here's why that young woman gets one vote right Charles Krauthammer.

Gets one vote.

Does that sound fair to anybody listening to this it makes no sense at all -- -- here's the rug out armor they did get one vote each here's a -- -- -- our founding fathers in their wisdom and I mean this seriously.

Said to every American you have a right to be -- moron.

You have an absolute right to be a moron and if you are more on.

We are not gonna penalize you -- the federal government now the private marketplace will penalize you and -- You know probably not prosper economically but we the government and allow you to be a moron if you want and many of us exercise that right.

And then -- that that's sort of just say so you're saying they're merely exercising their -- their constitutional right to be an idiot.

All right fair -- -- look at the media how many of the media people exercise that right every.

Single.

Evening.

Nice segue though if you will look.

Okay are right now we have seen a little toughening up.

Against the Obama administration's economic performance have we not.

Yeah and and I've said on this very program that from time to time the media would be tough on Barack Obama.

But if this is suggestion.

That this may be the beginning of a historic change in how the so called mainstream media treats Liberal Democrats like Barack Obama.

No way is that happening I'm gonna give you one example.

Two it can't prove my point because it's gonna happen tomorrow morning you said in the talking points.

That if Barack Obama got his way and taxes went up on the wealthy the top one or 2% of the wage earners in this country.

That would provide enough income I think you -- for eight and a half days are correct.

Okay do you think that's gonna be on page one of the New York Times tomorrow that's a very important fact.

Because that shows that that would Barack Obama said today has not -- to -- economics right after everything to do with politics so let's -- if the New York did.

Not patriotic front page of any liberal newspaper and it's not going to be to be taken into account by the liberal economists.

Because they don't want to tell the people the truth and I think this is what he Bernie and I.

And I'm speaking for -- now and he can correct me in a moment if I'm wrong.

What Bernie and I -- trying to get across the -- media segment every week is that many in the media powerful people don't wanna tell the truth to the people.

Because it's more important to them to get their ideology.

In play.

Then to let the folks know what the truth is and that's -- to -- won't change from what the American Media.

Was 3040 years ago.

Yeah that's pretty close to my position except I don't know if -- suggesting.

That they consciously.

Wake up in the morning and say.

I'm gonna try to help Barack Obama going to do that but unconsciously wake up in the morning and they say.

I'm not gonna report things that make my ideology look back.

I don't -- -- -- consciously say at -- I don't think -- let -- but they do it they do it looked like can I give -- another -- your facts let me give you another example.

There's a piece in the current edition.

Of by the weekly standard.

By a very Smart -- -- -- winner who's on fox from time to time I'm just give -- five fact just five.

Fact number one.

As a candidate Barack Obama promised to create five million new.

Energy jobs alone just five million.

Energy jobs fact number two.

He claimed but that by the end of his first term.

His health care plan would quote.

Bring down premiums by 2500 dollars for the typical family -- number three.

He guaranteed that his financial rescue plan would help stop foreclosures -- number four.

In the first year of his presidency he pledged quote to cut the deficit we inherited in half by the end of my first term in office.

Fact number five he said he would quote -- two million Americans from poverty and quote -- to our economy back to life.

Have you seen that any place in the mainstream media but -- got to be Obama has mailed.

Nobody apologizes.

Except for the weekly standard nobody is brought -- but.

All politicians make promises and -- deliver to be fair.

Yes but it's one thing to promise.

Vaguely.

I promise you hope and change these are very specific promises listen.

The same mainstream media that put.

Mitt Romney's stupid stunt while he was a teenager in high school.

All over page one and on several jump pages and the same mainstream media that put on page one and Romney's.

Horse thing you know where she rides horses which is a very expensive hobby.

They found enough time and space to devote to that.

Why can't they find time to devote to this because they want President Obama to be reelected -- -- guys it really is very.
