Nahh, just among GOP candidates, as Ron Futrell writes at Big Journalism. “Wolf Blitzer on Wednesday hammered Mitt Romney on why he won’t release his financial records. Seriously, Wolf?”
I’ll get to Romney’s financials in a moment, but the same Blitzer, who won’t pressure the current Commander in Chief to release his academic records is attacking Romney on his financials? Yep—Dear Leader must be protected at all costs, while Republican candidates will get the full on anal exam from the activist old media. That will be the template for 2012. Some may say, “get used to it.” Sorry, as a journalist, I find it hard to get used to clear media bias.
Here’s what Wolf had to say: “Transparency; you say you’re not going to release your income tax records … why would you [not] do that?”
Romney answered by saying that at this point in the campaign it’s not a requirement, and he will “follow the law” and release the records when required if he becomes the nominee.
But the badgering over “transparency” continued by Blitzer, “What do you have to hide?”
What do you have to hide? Really Wolf? Have you paid any attention to how the media is absolutely terrified to hold Dear Leader to account on his academics? Grades, transcripts, writings, on and on. Nothing has been released and Barack Obama (Mr. Transparency Himself) has no problem with ignoring any placid requests by the activist old media.
A memory hole is any mechanism for the alteration or disappearance of inconvenient truth … a web site or other archive, particularly as part of an attempt to give the impression that something never happened.
(Wiki)
Using a cache retrieval system people can prevent facts from disappearing down the ”memory hole.”
BUT Romney never gave out his financials.
So, Romney has not ”disappeared” them down any ”memory hole.”
Obama, OTOH, has said and done things then tried to hide those facts.
For instance, Obama said of the Occupy movement, “We are on their side.”

AP tried to ”memory hole” that FACT with this:
Another example, Obama deviates from his teleprompter and tells the truth; the media pretend it never happened (BUT we’ve all seen the video!)
That’s how the “memory hole” works.
What’s got Wolf Blitzer’s knickers in a wad is a legal loop hole, not a memory hole.
THAT’s how low they have become, no more soul lives in them,
that’s why obama love the owls also.
Romney is just so fake, and plastic, and for me he is just not an acceptable candidate. He is trying too hard, nothing seems real about him.
What botheers me is that when he left the governors office, he bought all of the hard drives, and destroyed them. Now, only somebody who has something to hide would do such a thing, besides the fact of whether this is illegal or not. I’m sure, when the anal exam comes from the progressive side, this issue will come up.
let’s see-Wolf gets kicked in the nuts by cnn, than by the wipe house in the head to support dumb-nuts. When you sell your soul there is really no return. Ever what Wolf gets paid a year? This is in addition the material compensaton form cnn, the wipe house and other agents. There is no birth certificate and for some odd reason, none of the harvard law professor ever remember seeing dumb-nuts on either the campus or class. Wonder what is up with that? Grades are like the birth certificate-they don’t exist. Smile America-you just got screwed again. HAPPY NEW YEAR. SEMPERFI
