Actually, not so shocking. They were the “correct” sort of Christians.
During a question and answer session at a conservative Christian college in Iowa on Monday Republican presidential hopeful Rick Santorum faced some opposition on social issues (health care and gay marriage) from a couple of Democrat students. BBC America’s Kate Dailey couldn’t contain her joy:
It’s not too great a leap to conclude that Dailey doesn’t feel quite the same way about conservative Christians.
(The tweet links to this article about the event by a CNN journalist whose own leanings are not difficult to discern).
Dailey also recently revealed what a big fan she is of Obama’s eldest daughter:
Time and again we see BBC journalists expressing their dislike of Republicans and conservative causes while cheerleading all things Obama and “progressive”. It seems the entire BBC America staff is on the same page politically, so it’s really no surprise that the BBC’s coverage from the U.S. is so completely biased.
Disciple MARDELL, Obamessiah’s supplicant, obediently spreads the word, or more accurately, the words of President Teddy Roosevelt from Kansas.
Why Obama Can’t Play Teddy Roosevelt
The word:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-16061185
Mardell writes: “Mr Obama did not limit his criticism solely to current economic debates, reaching back to the “trickle-down” theory that has long been used to rationalise tax cuts for the wealthy.”
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-16061185
Ah! There it is. Mardell grew up in the anti-Reagan BBC. “Trickle-down” economics was the dirty phrase of his halcyon days. How wonderful to be able to swirl it around his own tongue.
The fact that all economics is trickle down in one way or another escapes Mark. But that would mean questioning Him and that would never do, would it?
But I have hopes for Mardell. Tina Brown, Ariana Huffington and Chris Mathews have all turned on the “O” in recent weeks. It’s only a matter of time before Mardell echoes his dinner friends. Or maybe he’s in love?
Mardell is a Socialist. He has no clue about how anything works other than politics.
I started visiting this blog only recently mainly because it takes a healthy and informed stance against the BBC’s blatant proAGW climate propaganda, but I’m finding out all sorts of worrying things about the way the ‘news’ is both presented and reported by the BBBC as a result of articles like this. Deeply worrying.
A nice thing to say, and it makes the efforts of everyone who comments here seem that little bit more worthwhile. Thanks Dogstar.
How’s about George Bush’ daughters, dearie?
Are they tall, with good posture?
Hopefully David P and our other American friends and allies are able to tell them over there about who the BBC and the liberal Euro elite crave as their next President.
If I was correctly informed, then the Guardians attempts to swing Ohio for that nice John Kerry back in 2004 got Dubya an extra four years.
Let`s hope that the Americans realise just how smug, arrogant and patronising the political class in Europe are-and we,the drabs and civilians here, beg the USA to look at who our leaders want-and vote for exactly the opposite.
Then hand the elected Republican a dossier of the pernicious East Coast wannabies musings about that great country from London…so the Beeb dweebs are refused entry as the pinkoes and lotus eating creeps that they are!
The Beeb were happy to tell us all that Mrs Clinton wants to link aid with the recipients stance on gay rights and the rest of it.
Let`s hope that she extends it to arms sales and contracts as well as nuclear pretensions too…and see how the BBC like the racist patronising denial of legitimate tools of self-defence to their chums in Riyadh, Teheran and Lahore!
Is that tumbleweed I see a rollin` between Wood Lane and Bush House(or is that Obama Towers by now?)
the bbc coverage of the US makes me want to reach for the boke bucket
It’s a bit disgusting for the President to play at channeling Teddy Roosevelt’s “Square Deal” populism, when Roosevelt was talking about the problems with oil and rail monopolies and the current President has been redistributing billions of taxpayer cash to His own moneymen, and has added to the excessive regulation and taxation that is strangling small businesses and the middle class.
Mardell is unaware of history, knows only the progressive rewrite, and so has no idea what’s actually going on.
Roosevelt’s father made his fortune as a capitalist. Charity and support for the poorest was just as engrained as making a solid business grow. Roosevelt was standing against JP Morgan and monopolies, not against corporations or big business in general. And let’s not forget that Roosevelt knew all too well the dark side of the Progressives whom Dailey and the BBC love so much.
This is class war in a way that Roosevelt’s speech was not. Don’t let Mardell fool you. Roosevelt was extremely wealthy, part of the elite, but not because of crony capitalism or government funding. The Obamessiah thinks everyone is too stupid to know the difference, and, sadly, He’s right when it comes to the media.
“Ideas and typos = mine”.
Get Out of Bias Free.
She’s not twittering in her capacity as a BBC employee, even though she links direclty to it in her profile, so didn’t have to get approval from the BBC to have a Twitter account, like Katty Kay and Mardell had to do. So the loophole is easily used, accountability easily avoided.
At least she’s a genuine United Statesian and not a Brit sent to live among us and comment from on high.

Always better to be condescended to by the native liberal elite 😉
DB That gets my vote for “Reply of the Week”!
Kate Dailey is suffering from “Obama-worship” syndrome, in which objects “He” may have touched or worn become fetish-objects – something familiar to anyone with a passing knowledge of medieval religions.
Pschologically a near-relative of “Bush-Hitler Derangement Syndrome”, in which all the evils in the world are ascribed to one individual.
What Kate is demonstrating is that her brain is very valuable to pioneers in transplant science, being almost completely unused.
Sadly, it’s precisely this attitude that got her hired by the BBC.
Fifth paragraph. I guess we should look on this as progress.
What’s the bet Obama pardons Blagoon the way out.
Unless he joins him on a passport irregularity conviction !
This is just the BBC up to its old Good Dog/Bad Dog tricks. Of course they like Christians when they parrot leftist talking points. They like Theresa May when she’s slagging off real conservative (Good Dog), but when she clashed with an open borders supporting bureaucrat in the Immigration Service she got the Bad Dog treatment.
In a school today where Obama was cited at an assembly as an “inspirational role model”.
These educational policy setters have decided that we all need to search for the hero inside ourselves…so forget the little matter of facts and knowledge.
Rather resent Obama getting the easy ride from useful tools of schooling…no mention of George Bush who overcame alcoholism, nor of Nick Griffin who bravely defied a screaming BBC mob to appear on Question Time.
Bono is and was another…no wonder our kids are the empty wordclouds that they are these days!
