Several associates of mine, aware of my red-state predilections, approached me after the black day that was November 4 and demanded my allegiance — I’m serious — proclaiming, “He’s your president so you should stand behind him.” I thanked them but rebuffed their suggestion. As mentioned above, none of these individuals ever saw fit to do the same for our 40th, 41st, and 43rd presidents, so by what precedent should they expect special treatment for their Barackstar?

I actually had a couple of friends who voted McCain who said similar things to me. I said, yep, just like the dems supported Bush right?

I’ve got two words for this…

BUCK OFAMA

I remember Hannity saying that. You would think that at least one of them would aspire to become the next Russert. They missed the boat on that one.

Who delivered them from Saul?…
David.
And who will deliever us from “our Saul”?
Messiah Ben David.
The conquering King.

oops.

I do, too. I was listening to Hannity when he received the news. He said that something terrible had happened. he verified it first before he announced it.

Hannity is right, “The is the year Journalism died.”

We have the unhinged (Olbermann), the self-promoters (O’Reilly), the overtly biased (Mitchell), the unprepared (Colmes), the disrespectful (Shuster), the ones with misplaced arrogance (Shep Smith), the bootlickers (Matthews), the ones who love the sound of their own voice (Scarborough), those that should not take up space (King and Cafferty), the stupid (Sanchez), the smug (Kristol) and the cute token sidekicks (Mika).

I miss Tim Russert.

The people of Israel were warned that a human king would become their tyrant. Saul delivered tyranny in spades.
Obama is no messiah, but I do think that they people who clamored for his election are going to regret their choice.

This is like the Taliban suggesting that we should all work together after a beheading.

Chapin is exactly right.

Screw Obama

Whorebamas.

There was a violent labor strike. The Teamstars had ten or so large, tough goons sitting outside the plant. I had been there for weeks as a Security Guard. Not a scab, that was my job before the strike. I was spending most of my time scared.

Suddenly, they took off, leaving the most harmless three guys you can imagine. Then two television local channels showed up in their white vans with antennas. While they were there, four local democratic politicians appeared. One of them brought blankets and donuts and coffee. Amazing coincidence.

A week later the employer was given an injunction since there were always a dozen protesters blocking the gate and you could occasionally multiply that by five or six. The employer had to have his own film crew to convince the judge.

I like and respect unions to a degree but I respect the truth and the First Amendment a lot more. Anyway, the workers won that battle but plant is now in China.

Manufactured stories about the alleged anger of ‘right-wingers’

How about reporting of increased KKK and “white power” group activity and hate crimes of whites against blacks, all supposedly due to an incipient Obama Presidency. This is a continuation of the memes during the Obama campaign that false rumors about Him were abundant. That he’s a Muslim, that he’s a communist, and so on. That’s the liberal, MSM meme that the right is behind all of it. The hate, the rumors, the bigotry and racism against Obama. I’m finally beginning to put some creedence into Chomsky … I know, I know … that’s idiotic. But he wrote a book “Manufacturing Consent” about how the media creates false impressions. Though, he seemed mainly concerned they weren’t disseminating the false impressions he wanted them to! While a conservative would prefer honest reporting. Fair and balanced, if you will allow that phrase!

Here is a good example of their propaganda I heard Friday:
I think it was CNN news,, had a short story on sudden increases in Spam sales, The announcer speculated that Spam sales have been going up because fewer people can afford steak and the things you can do with Spam are limitless. It’s an old favorite! He said you can chop it, dice it, bake it, fry it!
Not one mention about the fear of a collapsing economy in the future Obama presidency,, not one mention about people feeling the need to stock up on food.
They are worthless. They are the same as the Marxists. They are a part of the problem.

Agreed. the spin is disgusting.. The friday upturn on the market was spun as a being a result of THE ONE’s Brilliant cabinet picks. No mention of the drop from 9600.

The press has always been in the tank. About 10 years ago, my dad, uncle and I went to a pro gun rally in Harrisburg. There were 10,000 people on the capital steps, about half of them legally armed (concealed). THe rally went great and the cops were telling us that it was the largest but best behaved rally they had seen.

On the way home, I almost went off the turnpike. The radio was on and the pompous news intro came on.. DA DA DAh Tum De Dah (news fanfare)

Announcer “There was a big rally in Harrisburg today”

Us “Yea, we made the news”

Announcer in that serious announcer voice “Twenty five people were outside senator Gimmea Handouts office Protesting the plight of the homeless”

Us ” WTF.. oh we must be next”

Announcer “In other news, the Phillies are 0 and 4 and Mrs. Jones’ kitten is stuck in a tree”

US “WTF WTF WTF WTF WTF WTF WTF WTF WTF WTF WTF ?”

Same thing with the papers the next day. The 25 handout grabbers were on the cover abover the fold. The 10,000 gun owners (Almost a division’s worth) were on C-8 below the fold with no pics and a short story ‘balanced’ by the gun grabbers..

Like Stalin said “I don’t care who votes, just who counts the votes”.. The corallarly here with the fourth estate/fifth column is “We don’t care what the news is as long as we get to choose what and how to report it”

Check this guy out. Love the lyrics.
