This file is a very brief diary of some examples of the Roanoke Times slant.

Roanoke Times, 6-29-12, Pg 1: Supreme Court affirms health care law (ObamaCare).
Pg 15: Editorial: Continued rabble-rousing by opponents of the Affordable Care Act would be disingenuous and irresponsible.
-
For example don’t do the nasty, vindictive and malicious things the Democrats did for years after the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Bush over Gore in the Florida hanging-chads case because that would be: “disingenuous and irresponsible!
-
Perhaps it was that case that caused Chief Justice Roberts to vote to affirm ObamaCare thereby denying Obama and the Democrats the opportunity to use the Court as a "rallying vehicle" yet again. Now they’re left to run on their record of a sad economy, high unemployment, massive deficits and debt, disastrous foreign policy outcomes with more taxes and regulations as the solution for better times. AND most American's don't like ObamaCare and will like it a lot less when they get the bill!

Pg 5: House holds Obama’s AG Holder in contempt: 17 Democrats voted with the House Republicans.
100 Democrats bugged out so they didn’t have to vote!
-
The entire context of this small print buried article is that there is no proper cause or reason why Holder has been held in contempt. Its election year politics and mostly it’s those nasty NRA gun-toters.
Really? US federal government officials knowingly enable thousands of guns to be carried into the hands of Mexican drug terrorists who used these guns to murder a US border patrol officer. AG Holder then lies about it in a formal written letter to Congress and then refuses to release under subpoena thousands of documents related to government malfeasance in the case. All this is politics and trivial and NRA bad guys?

Pg 7: Continued sluggish economic growth weighs on US job market. Two government reports released Thursday added to the picture of an economy that is faltering for the third straight year.
-
Talk about burying bad news for Obama’s reelection story in small print in the back!
Certainly relates directly to the Roanoke Times, 6-9-12, Pg 6: Obama gets grief for saying private sector is fine article. This blog’s response to these stories still seems to the point:
"How about the 12.7 MILLION Americans who are unemployed – what grief are they getting? It’s clear that Obama, the Chicago Street Organizer, is clueless and totally disconnected from solutions for the Country’s economic situation".
