Think about it, think about Paul Ryan. By all accounts a smart and thoughtful man. What did the MSM help the Democrats do? Say that Ryan and Romney wanted to kill Medicare. Did the MSM ever realy pursue Obama’s stealing the $750 billion from Medicare for Obamacare? No, they did not.
So you see, what Republicans have been conditioned to do - for decades now - is to soft sell everything in the misguided hope that the corrupt MSM would convey the information in a fair and accurate manner. That has not happened nor will it — ever!
It was not Romney. It was not his message, or lack of one. It was the corrupt MSM that has the power to bludgeon any Republican in favor of their Democrat brethren, and they do that — ruthlessly, and consistently.
Bottom line? It matters not what any Republican ever says, the corrupt MSM filter it for maximum adverse impact to Republicans and for maximum benefit for their Democrat brethren.
I know this all seems so simplistic, but it’s fact.
Ditto to the author. We are in grave trouble.
Actually if the Mahdi is some sort of crypto-Muslim the last people he wants to empower are the schismatic Shia Persians. The Islam he knew was Sunni. He did seem to bow to the King of Saudi Arabia. Sunni Muslims do revere that monarch as the House of Saud are the official guardians of the most sacred places of Islam, Mecca and Medina. Certainly the Saudis are not pleased with the Shias in Persia with a nuclear device. Further the Mahdi is rational enough to know that an Iran with any sort of nuclear device is going to set off a scramble among all the Sunni Arab states to develop or buy nuclear weapons from Pakistan. This will, and the more he has a Muslim sensibility the more he knows it in his bones, inevitably lead to some intra-Arab nuclear war sometime in the future. With the Islamic-Arab culture and mindset someone will use nukes to hide some shameful defeat or to try and hold on to power at home. So while the Mahdi is not my favorite guy I don't think he is cheering on a nuclear Iran. Now helping the Saudis take over the Arab Middle East, that is another thing altogether.
” For Iranian-born Jarrett – who Obama has admitted he consults before he takes any decision and who has been said to act as his ‘spine’ — is a far-leftist with roots deep in the corrupt Chicago Democratic machine. Indeed, Jarrett has been credited with originally smoothing Obama’s entry into Chicago’s political elite, and is now said to be – despite her controversial background — the most influential person in his circle. “
She doesn’t tell him what to do. She tells him how to do it.
Depressed
by “Maxine” comic strip..via a friend...
Over five thousand years ago, Moses said to the children of Israel , “Pick up your shovels, mount your asses and camels, and I will lead you to the Promised Land.”
Nearly 75 years ago, (when Welfare was introduced) Roosevelt said, “Lay down your shovels, sit on your asses, and light up a Camel, this is the Promised Land.”
Today, Congress has stolen your shovel, taxed your asses, raised the price of Camels and mortgaged the Promised Land!
I was so depressed last night thinking about Health Care Plans, the economy, the wars, lost jobs, savings, Social Security, retirement funds, etc ....
I called a Suicide Hotline.
I had to press 1 for English.
I was connected to a call center in Pakistan ..I told them I was suicidal.
They got excited and asked if I could drive a truck......
Folks, we’re screwed
