No, I am the only one that is Not brainwashed. But go get some more phony info from Crock Radio.

I work in the real world and talk to people who hire Mexicans or anyone else who will work hard.

Pray for W and Our Troops

The GOP’s prayer:

Dear Lord,

Although we have been fast asleep

Because she’s such a steaming heap

If H-R-C’s their candidate

We’ll win the White House in ‘08!

Amen

The change happened during Vietnam and was complete by the resignation of Nixon.

The televised media felt empowered to promote an agenda. As they were overwhelmingly liberal, the approach was to repeat a message until we poor dweebs caught on.

What we do not know, MNJohnnie, is how much was falsified back then.

The reason you never follow “groupthink” is not because of the “group” part. Ever!

Yes, the MSM is totally partisan and biased... the only difference is more people know it now.

I think one of Anita’s links was to a poll on how many people trust the media... only slightly more than trust Harry Reid.

The problem is their constant lies permeate our consciousness. Not just the news shows, but the entertainment shows slip in propaganda, some subtle, some in-your-face.

And, even though we know better, it kinda enters our psyche.

I’ve seen evidence of that even here on Free Republic, which is home of the wonks and of people who keep up.

And, boy, are they scared of talk radio. I just hope that the public outrage would be too strong to let them slip in some kind of crappy fairness doctrine.

No difference in the “News” media?

Please tell me when, prior to the year 2000, several of the chief political operatives of a former President where hired to be either the head of the political “news” section of one of the big 3 major US broadcast News organizations, or as “analysis” for major cable news networks?

Now explain to me why the “News” media hired Clintonite mouthpieces like George Stefanopolous, James Carvalle, Paul Begaula, Wes Clark to fill supposed “Journalist” slots?

Quotes are selectively edited, or omitted to give a false spin to the story. Who get's quotes is a highly selective process where the quote chossen usual has to do with political spin rather then quality of the story. Forget getting anything put in context. Also forget getting the OTHER side given a chance to rebut the spin.

Great post. I just finished reading the first installment of the Washington Post's hit piece on Cheney - so many lies about the Geneva Conventions, Presidential powers, historical precedents. There were so many untruths about the things I DID know, I wouldn't trust anything else in that article, including "it," "and," and "the." Still trying to get my blood pressure down.

Thanks again.

Actually you are afraid more people will get it and speak up. As long as you can use your thuggish tactics you can keep the truth tapped down.

Truth is you have no replacements for the Mexicans who are doing the hard low paying labor in this Country. You want everyone to believe that the Country can survive on only high wage jobs when that is not the fact.

When you have the richest Country in the World sitting next to one of the poorest where are the people going to go? Too bad logic and nature gets in the way of your dogma.

Hey Ced, I don’t respond to people who couldn’t spell “idiot” if you spotted them the I and the T.

No, you are right, rodguy, you don't get protection.

Ronald Reagan said it best:

"The nine most terrifying words in the English language are: 'I'm from the government and I'm here to help.'"

To: snugs

snugs, you are right about people who watch C-Span, but I’m gonna guess that conservatives who watch are genuine political junkies, but that many of the liberals, judging by the callers, are paid operatives working from the democrat playbook who are reading the spin of the day.

Many of the democrat callers don’t sound smart enough to know who their own senators are.

altura, we knew it then. We can do a better job of proving it and bypassing it entirely now.

There is no protection of my industry either. How many in your industry hire Mexicans?

You better than anyone should know that farmers can’t buy machines to do the work and stay profitable.

Why do you brag about not being “brainwashed” when you’re bereft of the definitional prerequisite?

What makes you think illegal aliens are getting the lowest paying jobs in this country?
