The bigger picture that is often lost in our posts, is that although we will take issue with specific subject matters, the overall common theme of our gripe is the disparity in which said subjects are covered in the media.
Issues can and should be debated, and obviously we are of the mind that the conservative argument will always win if based solely on facts. Liberalism and socialism have failed in every instance they've been enacted. Every instance. Conservatism and capitalism may not be perfect but they're sure the hell batting better than .000%. We think that considering this, the debate is a layup. Then again, that's probably what the Sacramento Kings thought before they heard Donaghy's whistle start blowing like the midnight train to Georgia.
Point is, for all you non-sports fans out there is that the refs are on the payroll and not only actively trying to fix the game, but are calling technicals on the fans in the stands, and that should scare the living shit out of anyone who believes in truth, justice, and the American way.
Take for one instance just one little issue like, I dont know....war.
One would think that that'd be a pretty big one, insomuch that how you feel about war today would not change drastically tomorrow. You'd be wrong. Long gone are the weekly marches and nightly death count graphics back dropping quagmiretastic carnage and bloodshed on the evening news. Every damn night? On the telly phone? It would seem that in bizarro Obama world, war is no longer bad. We have always been at war with Eastasia.
Terms like Big Brother and Orwellian are thrown around as cheaply as hopenchange but like so many empty catch phrases the truth or should I say Minitrue is so much scarier than the spin.
The Thought Police are amongst us and they belong to the Democrat Party. Just like the fake outrage over the war has now ceased, so too have the concerns for individual privacy and liberty. Eavesdropping is now good, hell spying on your neighbor is encouraged. The list could go on and on. Name a gripe of the left the past eight years, they now are in favor it.
Every single argument I have made here has now been vindicated. Liberalism is an ideology of contrarian hate. But none of this frightens me, I predicted it and called it on this blog years ago. Lets see how quickly the Dems change their tune on the nuclear option after recess, cant say I see the Gang of 14 going on a reunion tour any time soon.
What frightens me is the media.
The media are no longer content with just being biased, they are now aggressively attacking the citizenry of this Country. Joe the Plumber asked one question and they were running background checks on him and smear campaigns within the day. A dozen people ask a dozen questions, and they are the mob. An angry brown shirted racist mob. (The lib hypocrisy works both ways - what they once supported they now oppose: see community organization) Strictly on the basis that these people dont think the same way that the media wants them to.
The media have crossed the line. The hypocrisy is no longer cute. It is criminal, amoral, and un-American. I would sooner have alqaeda live in my building than the lowliest of pages at NBC News.
The only consolation is that, if ratings and poll numbers are any indication, this will be perhaps the greatest backfire in the history of American politics, and the savior of this great nation from the evils of liberal and socialist hate.
That being said...

Bye Donkey! Go ahead and call me stupid one last time if it will make you feel better.
i don't think that's such a good idea.
you write as if you've been defeated. you shouldn't over-estimate your ability to change how people feel or think. it's visceral for most.
your voice, no matter how contrary to the increasingly bizarre voices of the extremes of BOTH the left and the right, should see daylight, whether gary and i or other 'libs' find it unpleasant. i see you, deep down, as a rational person, loyal to your essential ideology, yet often pulled in by the extremes, is one i will miss. a counterbalance shall we say.
i'm in my own world of loss at the moment, and i don't read or visit many blogs, and despite the fact that you guys piss me off 99.9% of the time, i do kind of count on you being there. and with all due respect for rhinoculous, you are the saner of the two.
just my two sense.
i'm sure nothing i say will have any impact, you is where you is.
just sorry to see another one bite the dust.
life really sucks, does it not?
everybody relax. donkey's not going anywhere. and no life doesn't suck anita. in fact life is great!
I dont know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog..
