The CTV.ca web site keeps propping up this old canard, in which it is “proven” that Obama is best for America on the basis that “the world” likes him the best. All of the media keeps regurgitating this imbecilic, meaningless tripe over and over as if it’s some sort of scientific “proof” of something —the likes of which could only be compared to the impeccable scientific “proof” that their United Nations division drummed-up regarding the “man-made global warming”.
CTV headline: “If world could vote, Obama would steal U.S. election”.
As a sane, sober guy, I see this as exactly the opposite of what I think it is intended to do: I think it speaks to a huge Obama negative. The jealous, envious, less rich non-United States world (of which liberal-left Canada is apparently the team captain, with Iran, Cuba, and Venezuela serving as ball boys and cheer-leaders and towel boys), which all love to hate the United States and which all compete as best they can against the U.S. economically and snub them at every turn, each one’s citizens thinking they’re somehow superior in every which way to the lowly Americans, believe Obama will serve their interests the best.
They trust Obama to bring America down, the best of all the candidates.
It’s how liberals think: bring down the rich, so as to prop up the poor, et al. Even if it’s all an illusion.
EXTRA TIDBIT:
Who conducted the polls? Newspapers in each participating country were the ones who conducted the poll. (Hello!) We know that the media is generally not biased at all, and certainly not liberal. (Hello!)
In Canada, the paper they got to do it was La Presse, a Quebec paper which is only read by Quebecers, and from a province which is notoriously anti-American and left-wing or even outright socialist. In Britain, the paper they chose was The Guardian—a notoriously left-wing or even far-left-wing paper, which, like all newspapers, routinely sacks McCain or any conservative or Republican.
So this is some solid stuff. Good on you for reporting it, CTV. Good solid journalistic stuff.
