4. Exactly - the Republicans own the mass media....
 ... which is by far the most powerful weapon in framing issues to their own BS specifications.

In a small way, the Little Goon is correct.  No one is listening to the whacky fringe left media (ABC, NBC, CNN, CBS, Time Warner, NYT, WaPO) any more.  It sorta is a new day.  Thank God.

The Planet Moron.  Remember these are the same people that think CNN is center right and NPR is plain old centrist.

I've still got the emails and posts from the idiots saying as much.  Like this one:

Subject: What Planet Are You From?

Sir: I am not sure from where your delusions stem, but let's clear up a couple of things: Air America is not 'hate speech;' it's free speech, and small balance to the right-wing venom polluting the airwaves. NPR is highly-censored, 'right-wing lite' news. Rush Limbaugh really truly honestly IS a big fat idiot (and a liar to boot). Also, you may want to get your facts straight, if you want to consider yourself in any way a 'journalist.' There is NO 'form letter' on the Democratic Underground, demanding equal time for Air America on AFN, or on any other issue. Here at Democratic Underground, we pride ourselves on being sufficiently intelligent to write our own letters, in our own words, expressing our own thoughts. In other words, we are not merely 'dittoheads.' I am sorry to hear that you consider Air America's programming to be 'anti-military filth.' You must have a pretty loose standard for what you consider to be anti-military. You must surely despise the Bush administration's cutting of funding for VA hospitals; talk about anti-military filth! And from a deserter to boot. What a black mark in American history to have a Commander in Thief who ran from duty like George W. Bush did (not to mention Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld). Your writing sounds eerily like the hate-filled rants of Rush himself. Or are you simply another paid shill for the Bush administration, like 'journalist' James Guckert/Jeff Gannon? One last thought: if you really value the freedoms of our Constitution, you might want to take a look at the way Bush has violated his oath of office in his attempts to dismantle the First Amendment.

It truly makes me question the intelligence of the Lefts Super Geniuses when
they make the moronic claims of the MSM being "controlled" by the Teh VRWC and such.

How people can be so willfully blind and stupid...


They believe this drivel even when Obama himself "jokes" on how everyone in the media voted for him.

Just amazing...and sad at the same time.

They make these wild claims because they are upset that the Media/government/general population don't subscribe 110% to their draconian despotic views on how America should be run.

It's how they rationalize in their twisted little brains why everyone doesn't see things in the "enlightened" way that they do.

Were the Government to do everything that the DUmmies wanted...it would make Pol Pot squeamish.

C"mon up to my neck of the woods, DUmmies.  Our STATE may be blue, but, like Commiefornia, thanks mostly to a couple of Masshole/flatlander enclaves like Keene, Portsmouth, Dover, and Durham (two of which are college towns).  You'll find out just how we like that Obmammy Kool-Aid.

Note that the largest group where I live by far is INDEPENDENTS.  Most of those independents are sick and tired of the Dems here.
