I raise hand, lift a finger.
Sincerely,
I'll raise two hands, two fingers, AND my bare buttocks in your general direction!
CNN - Propaganda TV. America's version of Al Jazeera.
CNN will eventually turn against their chosen Messiah.
again: blame everything on everyone else except your FAILED ideology!!!!!!
keep talking this liberal fascist hypocrisy. you got your nose so far up there you cant see your
fanatic Muslim friends attack us again while B.O. is talking nice to those poor Jihadist. you know,
the ones that see us as the Great Satan and infidels. when they are at your front door you are
going to wish Bush never left. BTW, i dont trust any politician. they all should be replaced, but
we keep putting them back in.
diplomacy is something my children fail to understand at first. it takes constant persistence.
that's how you (warmonger) will understand that killing people thousands of miles away, as you watch from the comfort of your couch, will NEVER be the path towards success.
their rhetoric is just as toxic as yours.
a political philosophy, movement, or regime (as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition
2: a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial control <early instances of army fascism and brutality
The only better quote was Chris Mathews who getsa chubby from the words of the messiah.

So did Hitler.......
Obama's followers raise their arm with a fist.
CNN is soooo in the tank for this guy. Whatever happened to objective journalism?
The other headlines just show how vapid CNN is.
Sick people.
Keep going CNN. Soon, you'll be another failing MSNBC network.

"Obama raises hand, lifts a nation" is just further proof that CNN adores Obama as their new mesiah. Pathetic.
I used to watch them when they were a news station. I thought they were off the air.
CNN is a joke. Propaganda is right.
The All Barack Channel (ABC) is just as bad. How can these 'reports' even look themselves in the mirror in the morning.
When CONSERVATIVE Ronald Regan won, he won 49 state victories. THOSE are landslides, he had damned near 600 electoral votes, both times.
You really are a mind numbed Obama Zombie.
The Republicans just elected a true Ronald Reagan conservative to lead the Party, Micheal Steele, And we have Governor Sarah Palin, another Ronald Reagan conservative, and an actual leader warming up in the bullpen for 2012.
And before you or the other Obot freaks start up. Remember, Ronald Reagan lost in 1976 and then came back in 1980 to win back to back 500 + electoral 49 state landslides. (1980 and 1984)
Sarah Palin has that same ability. Her only problem was being dragged down by John McCain.
Even our worst President EVER, Jimmy Carter, who preceded Reagan, had a good 6 months or so before the wheels came off the wagon.
Obama has already seen his approval ratings drop from 80 percent to 60 percent in 10 days! Hell in 6 months, at this rate, he'll actually show a negative!!
Like Carter, Obama will be one, and done.
your living room right next to your painting of "Elvis" (You know, the one on velvet.)
You have to give CNN and those coin guys credit.
They know their market.
If you don't think that will happen, you should check out the 56 Illinois counties, including Dem leaning counties, that Obama LOST between 2004 and 2008.
Go back and read history, as well as the SCOTUS case Bush v Gore.
It was Al Gore who tried to steal the election. It was Al Gore who tried to have 15,000 valid military absentee ballots thrown out.
I know liberals have very low IQ, but drag out your pocket copy of the United States Constitution.
The REASON why SCOTUS stopped the vote is because Al Gore and the democrat Supreme Court of Florida. (100 percent) violated President Bush's 14th Amendment rights.
You see, the case had made it to SCOTUS in the first place, because that idiot Gore, and his cronies wanted to ONLY recount the votes in a couple of South Florida, democrat infested counties, NOT the entire state.
The United States Supreme Court GAVE the lower Florida Court a VERY simple remedy. COUNT EVERY VOTE.
The Florida Supreme Court, and Al Gore refused. The Supreme Court then stopped the recount, and directed the Florida legislature to certify George W Bush as the 43rd President of the United States.
Now there was a separate issue, as well. These counts had gone past a date certain cut off that was Florida law. The 100 percent democrat Florida Supreme Court ordered the Secretary of State, Katherine Harris, to violate the law, and commit a felony, and allow the count to continue.
I know facts confuse liberals, since they rarely get them from their sources. But go look this up. It's all in the history books.
Now if you want to talk election issues, how about those 4 cases at SCOTUS right now demanding Barry Soetoro produce his real birth certificate?
Does it bother you that Obama has spent a million dollars keeping his BC out of the public eye?
Liberals can't see the forest for the trees.
Also, how about Barry's ACORN community organizer thug buddies who are under investigation in over a dozen states for voter fraud by the FBI?
Or the ARMED Black Panthers who were found, and arrested at various polling stations on election day, and are now under investigations for civil rights violations?
Oh yeah, they only endorse democrats.
CNN is nothing but a Democrat slanted OPINION SHOW; there's no news or anyone newsworthy there. In the real news world; CNN is an "also ran"
THAT'S WHY FOX BEATS THEM IN RATINGS CONTINOUSLY!!!!!
He had about 12 of these 'Gestapo Salute' shirts in his shopping cart.
I could see the label without touching anything on or near the guy (boy he was RIPE!) and the label actually read;
"Made with pride by Kathy Lee Gifford's kids. A portion of all proceeds go to the Democratic National Committee"
Communist
News
Network
They should throw in the towel and call themselves TASS
News can be turned to support or oppose any point of view, it's called bias, it's propaganda...it worked for the Nazi's, the Communists and now the Democrats.
No wonder most thinking people are now turning to the internet for news, just like my parents listened to Radio Free Europe.
I like Harold, return the gesture with a one-finger salute... i can still fletch my arrows and here's what you can go do with your hand...
Take CNN's shirt "Obama raises hand and lifts a nation"
Beneath put the quote ad the image of Hitler in a "Seig Heil" pose.
I'm waiting for the statues, and posters at every intersection. But I will never carry around my little red book!
I'll get off 5 rounds from my .38 before they come for me!
Chapter and verse, dude. Let's see if you can come up with the goods.
How's the coffee in your cube at Fox?
Obongo called.
He puked up a pair of your pantyhose...
This personality cult has to stop. I'm soooo sick of this Obama love-fest.
When BO gets done destroying our culture and economy in the next four years, his name will be used as an expletive.
Sign's of Hope & Change" ?
Get out your Brown Shirts , people !
But on the bright side atleast 0bama t-shirts are doing something to stimulate the economy becase his stimulas plan sure won't.

I thought CNN was supposed to be about journalism, not cheerleading.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZ5SVDYBNrY
CNN ratings is a joke compare the leader FOX....
CNN is his deoderant
This is scary. As well, how does this not show that NBC or CNN are absolutely in the can for Obama? That's a rhetorical question.
It's genius though, to spread headlines psuedo propaganda on t's. Friggin genius.
Now I know why Lawyers are celebrating! Plus now their offices will be filled with people suing their past employers for wage discrimination. I use to work for the government (sorry about that) and I am looking into suing the government for this very offense. The many (I believe most at management levels) self righteous that I worked for openly discriminated and at the same time preached about how that was wrong. Typical "do as I say, not as I do", Liberals.
it's sick. But we the American people continue to tune in to the main stream media's drivel...
Someone needs to make a documentary reviewing the past year reviewing the almost creepy mental state of Obama supporters. Talk about loonies.
At least they are not hiding there bias.
Who is blowing smoke up whose arse?
Hussein Obama is not the Messiah, nor is he Moses, who lifted his arm to part the Red Sea!
The liberal media has done it worst ever in this past election, by showing their true colors!
Beware of cult of personality figures.
Its ok, thats the reason O'Reilley has 3.8 million viewers and CNN has to sell T-shirts to make money....
Next we'll be seeing your anchors wearing them. They might as well, their certainly in the tank for Obama!
Disgraceful!!!
P.S. Go Rush!
But I worry that it may just be me and that oddball 27% who were still saying Pres. Bush did a good job. Or the 32% that didn't approve of Obama's job during the transition.
I hope I'm wrong and that others like me just are more sensible than I am and don't read the comments of what I hope are the most hostile, least critically thinking members of the Republican base.
Oh, and CNN is pretty silly to sell t-shirts with headlines on them.
Steph
If anyone is looking to blame someone for the economic hardship we are currently experiencing, please look back to when the Democrats took over Congress. I'd be hard pressed to say that this was a coincidence.
I think most of the people commenting are just really pissed off that they have to endure news agencies kissing the presidents ass. At least let him do something good before you begin brown-nosing.
CNN, like nearly all the MSM, need to get off their knees and wipe their mouths after the last campaign season. I realize they love Obama and hate women, but this is getting ridiculous.
if CNN was so fair and equal why were their no shirts for President Bush
fuckin socialists.
I USED MY WALL STREET BONUS MONEY TO PAY FOR OBAMA'S INAUGURATION!!
Many prominent Wall Street executives have bundled large amounts for Obama's inauguration, including:
• Louis Susman, vice chairman of Citigroup Corporate and Investment Banking and managing director, vice chairman of investment banking, Citigroup ($300,000);
• Mark Gilbert, senior executive, Lehman Brothers ($185,000);
• Robert Wolf, chairman and CEO, UBS Americas ($100,000);
• Jennifer Scully, vice president, private wealth management, Goldman Sachs ($100,000);
• Bruce Heyman, managing director of the Private Wealth Management Group, Midwest region, Goldman Sachs ($50,000);
• Kobi Brinson, senior vice president and assistant general counsel, Wachovia ($35,000)
"It’s no wonder that Wall Street is pouring so much money into this inauguration," said David Arkush, director of Public Citizen’s Congress Watch division. "The executive branch has given bailouts worth trillions of dollars to Wall Street firms and is considering trillions more. Wall Street has a lot at stake."
Disgusting propaganda by CNN. Obama is a Marxist from a corrupt political machine, schooled by a domestic terrorist and funded by a Syrian slumlord. Glorifying him will lead to our destruction.
johncmr
Did you actually read what you wrote before you sent it?
All news is propaganda , and its a "view" of the truth.
No, that's called commentary Jane.
The News should be based on unbiased fact.
FoxNews. Where people who want America to fail get their news.
And even the conservatives took Bush to task daily.
BTW, Fox News viewership is split 3 ways, democrat independent and Republican. The numbers are almost dead even at 33 percent and some change each. In raw numbers, Republicans are actually the smallest single group of the three!
Of course, as a libtard, I know facts are lost on you.
Record Act of 2009' will help to disarm law abiding citizens and open the door for more gang and Criminal activity.
The Dems are destroying America from every angle possible.
You guys effed up our country.If you don't support Obama, your support terrorists.
Support Obama, not the terrorists, you America-hating-conservatives.
He is the one that wants to chat with Iran, close Guantanamo, and send all the terrorists home as long as they promise not to do it again.
BTW, The Republican party did not "eff" up this country. Ask your Democratric buddies how they forced banks to loan money to poor pieces of crap that could never pay the note back !!
(As previously stated) Look when the Democrats became the majority in Congress and how it corresponds to the current economice crises.....Scary stuff.
Let's quit with the name calling, while we're at it. If you want to make a point, then make one. This has been a problem with Democrats for the last 10 years. Republicans offer arguments, and the Democrats rebudle with name-calling and finger pointing. Give it a rest.
can I get one free on skittles.com?
Get off Obama's "bird".
Regards,
The Truth.
Report online claims the media is biased toward President Obama.
In other news, the sky is blue and water is wet.
Film at 11
You would think Jesus has come again and his name is obama.
This Obama cat is an idiot. Someone has got to rein him in. He is in the process of tearing the hell out of this country. Former crackhead, nicotine addict. Bad combination when you throw in the stupid part.
They may have to change their name to ONN, just so they can claim accurate reporting.
It makes me feel so safe knowing terrorists approve of Obama...you got to really enjoy his TV interview after taking office was with the Arab world...he knows the base that got him elected don't even follow policies...they are thinking of spring break...
Of course CNN loves Zerxes
Zerxes is going to pay for us when we get sick
pay off our houses
pay off our cars
educate us
clothe us
OH and tax the h3ll out of us, but will do it with a smile as long as we kneel before his greatness.
praise be to Allah (Zerxes)
how about we try working together for a change?
We need to find a way to cut their profits and they'll possbily see the light.
Really, how?
By signing executive orders, freeing terrorist murders and catering to excessive financial waste by handing out our tax dollars to insolvant banks that just so happen to all be friends with members of Obama's cabinet?
Journalistic integrity my arse.
Signed
Chris Matthews
Kudos!
what is a CNN?
Second only to MSDNC in their worship of The One.
CNN is just another Barack Obama lap dog. And they wonder why they are losing viewers to Fox!
Boycott CNN.
DO NOT WATCH CNN!!!!!!!
It needs a new name...leave out the NEWS part...how about STATE TV..OBAMATV
Shame on CNN
On the good side, Americans have woken up sooner than I expected.
The bad side is, they are going to fight a good fight to continue to control us and enslave us. God help us.
Maybe we DO need the Fairness Doctrine.
Oh, and the internet, they want to censor it, as well. Google already does it for the Chinese, so they know how!
The media in America is apparently the last to realize what a joke it's become.
You just can't take it seriously on any level.
far more fitting for this CLOWN
Just Words. Will this an object of the fairness doctrine?
I just wish this would be admitted by these companies instead of hiding behind a lie and praying on people less informed or people who are just plain stupid.
Obama moves pen millions of unborn babies will DIE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Obama speaks and stock market TANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I still have to clean my birds` cages every week.
When is NASCAR on again, boys?!
2012!! 2012!! Can't wait to hand you your asses again in 4 years!!
Obama lifts a pen and signs away our freedoms
Not good enought to wipe my **s
And are definitely not in the news business.
Pravda, here we come!
Nope, no bias here. Just like the left says!
<End Sarcasm>
Obama = ass + clown
BTW - I don't hate Obama but he hates me and my country -USA.
Bob
TO lift a nation",
might have been an acceptable declaration of the spirit of the moment.
The words on the cnn t-shirt are inaccurate. The man 'hopes to' lift a nation.
It will be "News"- only when and if lifting happens.
Has anyone ever heard anything on Fox that challenged their perceptions?
Or is everything you hear exactly what you want and expect to hear?
pfft...
Tom
Problem is that when we get a terrorist attack Obama will likely surrender. Oh it will be dressed up as an incredible accomplishment of dipomacy but the substance will probably have us paying protection money to Hamas. But then again that is something a chicago thug politician understands all to well.
He probably stirred the kool aid withthat finger!
...how wonderful is it that only the news sources that agree with you are the only one's that are never wrong, biased, etc. Oh, What a country we live in
What do you want from the drive bye media.
But then, Frank, Pelosi, Reid & Dodd haven't cared about the country's economic stability engine (ie, the middle class) since they took office.
That's why illegals can get welfare, healthcare, heat & food, but contractors who worked full time & waited for years to become employees are now out in the streets with no unemployment, no nuthin'
Bite my BUTT CNN and MSNBC
Face it, your guy LOST! IN A LANDSLIDE!
So follow the advice of Wheelchair Dick Cheney and go F yourselves for 8 years.
Enjoy being out of power for 8 years -- maybe 50 years.
From these comments, it looks like nobody but racists and morons oppose Obama.
!! All the networks are part of Obama's Ministry of Propoganda.
There is no lifting here, the chains we are having placed upon us, in the form of the HUGE debt, are drowning us.
Every one who votes for this future disaster should have to be held accountable for it when we all go down with it.
Obama you had better be putting your hand down and putting some $$$ in your worshippers hands. That's why they voted for you. They want the money that your going to take from all of us that actually work for OUR money.
I can't believe these worshippers of his. They will defend him even though they still have no clue who this guy really is.
But what is wrong with communes in a capitalist system? Seems like a commune full of computer hackers, farers, and weapons experts would do pretty good in today's economy.
You Americans are morons, good ridence...
shoots bird to republicans
then flushes taxpayers and economy
down the toilet.
Change you can believe it.
Michelle is proud for the

"Well, they didn't sell Bush DVDs because nobody wanted them. The Obama merchandise is selling because there is a DEMAND for it. I thought conservatives were all about free-market economics. If you don't want an Obama coin, don't buy one. I think there is bitterness on the internet among the minorities -- that is to say, the conservatives, who are very much a regional minority."
That's net even close. These aren't DVDs, they're T-Shirts. Lots of sites sold Pro Bush T-Shirts for 8 years. None of those sites were pretending to be unbiassed news sites though.
Obama & CNN: We did it!
all media is biased - consume all of it & make your own opinion.
Bite me you filthy liars!
Un-freakin-believable.
Obama raises debt, lowers boom
Obama raises hand, waives goodbye
Obama raises hope, should be fear
Obama raises hand, loses a nation
Obama raises hand, lifts a nation (by its underwear)
This proves that CNN is part of the biased Leftist media. I guess if the Democrats get their way, though, CNN would have to start offering positive Republican options, too. . . due to the (pseudo) Fairness Doctrine and all.
Which is really all they're all so excited about.
Just the other day, Obama walked into a window that he thought was a door. Where was the howling Stewart, Colbert, Leno? Nowhere to be found. Imagine what they'd have done to Bush in the same circumstance.
But this is all trivia: The larger and more troubling issue is their unquestioning acceptance of this grotesquely mis-named 'stimulus' bill.
We are well and truly screwed. Praise be to Obama and his sycophant media boot-lickers
Anybody else want to come over to the center and help get us back our country?
How about "Obama raises heat - Midwest freezes"
“He’s from Hawaii, O.K.?” said Mr. Obama’s senior adviser, David Axelrod, who occupies the small but strategically located office next door to his boss. “He likes it warm. You could grow orchids in there.”

this guy is a joke now he wants to cut the military budget
ALL HAIL THE MESSIAH
"Obama raises a hand, lifts a nation."
......In the tank, all the way! CNN
"Obama sat for 20 years listening to racist, anti-Semitic, anti-American dogma from his mentor and all I got was this lousy t-shirt"
The First Nigga is just a "Jump Down Turn Around Pick A Bale of Bull$hit" myth ...
Hey CNN how about this slogan -
Obama lifts his arm and I lift my middle finger right back at him!
Socialist!!!!
Media Propaganda!!!!
Every newscaster out there should declare his/her political affiliation and let the viewers know where their loyalties lie.
And for those of you who bash FOX News - my question to you is why? Have you ever taken a moment to watch FOX? Or are you just another sheep? I watch all the networks and allow MYSELF to decide which is the most rounded news - you should too - you'll be surprised what it's like to use at least one halve of your brain.
http://changeyoumustbelievein.com/
the Clinton News Network............it carried it through the Bush years
and is now a pimp and prostitute for the Obama Administration....
We are a lost country
You think you've won the ball game when you've merely managed to take over on downs. This is not a victory, simply a change of possession. You can try to move the ball, but ZeroBoy is going four-and-out.
Watching your growing disappointment, frustration, and consternation with your Kenyan-born, closet Muslim Obamessiah as he fumbles on his empty promise of false hope and change for the worse will be highly amusing.
Then burned down Los Angeles......
THIS BOY NEEDS TO GO BACK TO HAWAII AND LIE ON THE BEACH....HE HAS "PETER PRINCIPLED OUT".

The results for this campaign have been phenomenal. More people are watching video on CNN than ever before. If CNN never sold another shirt (Obama-related or otherwise) I'm sure they'd be fine with that. In other words, the news isn't propaganda, it's business. Just ask FOX, MSNBC, or any other news outlet.
The Obama shirt seems to represent a serious conflict of interest. News that reflects negatively on Obama, could affect T-shirt sales.
That's the problem, just stick with journalism you greedy gossiip hogs. We don't need more silly T-shirt companies.
This will bring on The Collapse, which is good because then we can start over. So I support all of these huge new gov't programs.
Is that true, Clouseau? The Clinton News Network is biased?!? That can't be true. The American news media is proving an old Soviet Saying, "There is no Tass in Pravda and no Pravda in Tass"
CNN is done - one look at their ratings tells you why they've switched to the apparel business!
Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mike Huckabee and the other great conservative talk show hosts in this country - Keep up the great work -keep fighting the good fight!!!
BTW - what ever happened to Air America? ;-)
Want to make a real statement? Buy their CNN logo tan button down shirt and take it into a sewing shop and have them add "Propaganda Bureau" under it. Then you can walk around with a small tape recorder and large microphone and get into any Democratic function with ease.
You see they don't need to be discrete about it because if you don't want to get shut down under the Fairness Doctrine you need to start demonstrating your fealty to his highness in a more outright way. Even Fox News has started in this direction. The devil is in the details and even minor bits like this should be kept in the back of your mind so that you can cope when the day comes that they tell you to accept that they know what's best for you and that you need to get with the program so to speak. Fall in line liberal sheeple.
If you doubt that just count how many stories, every day, come out with something negative about Governor Sarah Palin. She is Hussein's and the Left's biggest threat and the media is the attack dog for the Socialists Party. (There is no Democrat Party.)
I thank Judi McLeod of the Canada Free Press for doing what the American press will not do - report the truth.
PENSIONS ARE KILLING OUR ECONOMIC SYSTEM!
Dear Leader has won the election and they're STILL bitter and whiney...
Did you all notice that liberals do not have to pay taxes until they are appointed a job in this idiots administration. I guess that is the change. Tax evaders beware DO NOT ACCEPT A JOB WITH PRESIDENT HUSSEIN.
Why do you think the Democrats hate Fox News, Rush, talk radio and certain bloggers so much and are so desperate to shut them down with that Orwellian named "fairness doctrine"? I can tell you why, it is because in order for the MSM's propaganda to work they have to be the gatekeepers of information and they also have to control the spin. Having people pointing out that the Democrats are lying hypocritical thieves and that the emperor has no clothes on is defeating their carefully crafted propaganda campaigns.
I hate to correct a fellow dittohead, but Walter Cronkite was the Wolf Blitzer of his day. It was Cronkite who declared that the war in Vietnam was unwinnable after the Tet Offensive (which was, in fact, a military disaster for the North Vietnamese, but "the most trusted man in America" never told us that).
I'm ashamed that Cronkite is from Texas.
Perhaps if a "journalist" ever asks Obama a tough question, I'll think about reconsidering. But that is a hell of a longshot.
Enough about all the layoffs.....
FOOD FOR THOUGHT!!
Wouldn't it be fair to say that when the US DEPT of Labor came out and said that by the year 2010 = next year...the LARGEST employer would by SELF...
We ALL should Plan accordingly...
Your future is in YOUR hands not your employers...unless YOU give them YOUR power...
