It’s the old saying that still holds true .... ‘when the going gets tough, the tough get going’ .... ;-)

[snugs]

I always have a couple spare for such events LOL

We lost to axelrod and the media and our 100 percenters who stayed home. They are still around and always will be.We have to fight back,targeting their sponsors and understanding what axelrod does will go along way in fighting back.As for the 100 percenters we just have to kick them in the ass long enough until they get a little bit smarter.

[snugs]

I got it right even if it was the wrong thread :0)

[Alas Babylon!]

Another major disappointment in a week of woes!

[Cheerio]

If there is no price to pay, no ratings decline,no loss of revenue, the DBM will keep on doing what they have done. we have the ability to make them pay a price! We should do it.!!

In a fantasy land such as were we live, the media will run to the RATs in the District of Corruption and demand subsidization, screaming "The 4th estate must be saved - the Constitution demands it."

John Kerry on journalism: 'Brave new world' ......snip.....The senator ran through a handful of 2009's print newspaper casualties-The Rocky Mountain News (closed), Seattle Post-Intelligencer (web-only) and Christian Science Monitor (shuttered daily print edition)-along with the economic pressures facing others like The New York Times. "Is there any government role at all?" Kerry asked, before the two panels began. "I don't know the answer to that."

New Media and the Future of Journalism “Saving the News: Towards a National Journalism Strategy”

This report, which can be downloaded in its entirety from http://www.freepress.net/media_issues/journalism is written by Victor Pickard, Josh Stearns and Craig Aaron, for the national media reform organization Free Press. In it, the authors lay out several ideas for saving the news, and address the crisis from a policy standpoint. The ideas include:

- nonprofit, low-profit and cooperative models
- community and municipal models for future journalism
- foundation and endowment support
- public and government models
- news commercial models
- public subsidies and policy intervention


IMHO the Commies have won - Nikita Kruschev would be soooooooooo proud.

Hi Snugs, how the heck are ya?!?

[snugs]

Good to see you hope your trip is going OK I knew there was a reason today to check this thread out

[FreeReign]

On a positive note, I am over this whining about the election and onto preparing for the worst.

You know things are bad when "preparing for the worst" is considered a "positive note". :)

I am not getting out of stocks(one place to beat inflation)

I was going to get out of stocks. You think the market will perform ok?

[snugs]

Not bad got things done earlier just about to put the chicken in the oven and thought I will catch up with you guys first. Followed the election and after Sandy and Christie thought the slight chance we had was gone. Sad I was right

Ha ha!

America is well beyond the 50 percent mark at this point when it comes to the government-dependency formulation. The only way out of this is to somehow advance the collapse of the state.

I would disagree Bob.If you are including SS recipients in your 50% calculations I wouldn't. I collect SS and am hardly a moocher or a taker.I still work 60-70 hours per week and have more than earned my SS.

Truth is there are about 22% hardcore left wingers in the country. Everyone else is subject to our messages.

Trouble is we have a very hard time getting them out since the DBM either won't report correctly distorts or leaves out all together when we make excellent points that we do. They do so knowing there is no price to pay! We need to give them a price to pay.

[rodguy911]

It will work its not rocket science. And it will send a message to the DBmedia there is a price to biased journalism and they all will pay it if they don’t straighten out their act. Meanwhile, we have the added edge of growing the new media no matter what. They can soon be between a rock and a hard place if we do it right.

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

I agree!

[bray]

Every Repub state should demand voter ID. The vote should be one of the most important tasks of an American. One fake vote is too many.

Pray for America

People make the mistake over and over again of lumping SS and Medicare into the 47 percent equation but it is NOT in there. The 47 percent are getting other benefits, not the ones they worked for.

If you throw in K-12 teachers, academia, union officials, state and local gov employees and others dependent on grants and such, the population of government-dependent people is well over 50 percent—WITHOUT touching SS recipients.

[rodguy911]

No problem.VDH is brilliant, no question.

[Alas Babylon!]

MSNBC is no longer co-owned with Microsoft. Micrsoft pulled out earlier this year. MSNBC’s new name is NBCNews.com.

I can ealisy stop watching the History Channel. I’ll miss Chumly, though.

[bray]

In all the gloom we had 90% voting from our Repubs in our precincts. The numbers aren’t all in but we may have a system to GOTV we can take to the rest of the state.

Sadly we have too many takers to win a Presidential.

Pray for America
