You said : "Call me cynical but this won’t go anywhere if the media is in defense mode and all Dems circle the wagons. In Watergate, there was media interest and a handful of Repubs who also wanted to get to the truth. Both of those factors missing here."

So we DO SOMETHING and don't just stand arond wringing our hands. Good grief! Are we still can-do Americans???? Somebody on this thread - who on FR has been involved in media before? Who has insight and can give us ideas into what we can do to MAKE THEM COVER THIS?

I'm getting so tired of the defeatist attitude on FR. Come on - we have some of the brightest minds, people with moral clarity, people who have served in the government; homeschool moms, ex military. Surely between us we can come up with a strategy to force their hand (the media) and make it where they HAVE to cover it?????

You’re right and today, FWIW, the lamestream are covering the story.

FR is grassroots and we’re not defeatists!

Rush led off with the lamestream’s newly found interest and is still talking about it now.

I can’t think of a thing which would cause the enemy (the mainstream media turned fifth column enemy within) to change their loyalties to the people and away from the oligrahcs who write their paychecks. BUT I am keeping track of where to go hunting when the rule of law breaks down and chaos reigns because of these vermin helping to destroy America.

Per Rush this morning, the dam may be leaking or breaking. I’m cynical because we have been down this road so many times before with a collective ‘meh’ from the media and public.

I sincerely hope my cynicism is misplaced and wrong...

I have not posted in quite some time....just disgusted frankly.

In 2013, I said of his re-election that we are all Benghazi now. BHO has no respect for the life of any American. As for HRC, her disdain for the military was known long ago. While BO has been destroying us domestically, she has tried to destroy us on the global front.

When we look back at our political landscape, HRC has had her nose in everything since 1991. She had her nose in the downfall of the American president in 1974. Enough!!!! Just say NO to 2016!

As for their sheep, they best wake up and realize that they are all Benghazi now, they are Ft. Hood, they are Boston. And they are Newton...because it meets the agenda. Sometimes it takes the loss of a life dear to them in these tragedies in order for to them to discover the truth about their shepherds. A few in Boston have had their “watershed” moment. Still, many will continue their blind following as they are cut from the same anti American cloth as their supposed leaders.

As for us who know better....We will NOT be Benghazi!!!
And the media must hear us loud and clear. That is where the pressure needs to be. The media is our biggest clear and present danger next to academia. The media foisted this disaster upon us. The media is cut from the same anti-American cloth as the leaders they chose for us.

We can keep pressuring the media to report the truth. The scam. The corruption. The deceit. The malice. The lust for power to continue the downfall of everyting decent about America. When not pressuring the media, we can educate others. Tell them to do their homework. Tell them to turn off Hollywood, American Idol, sports, etc....tell them they are Benghazi!!!! They are no longer immune from a terrorist threat. If faced in a terror attack will their rescuers be told to stand down for someone’s political gain?

Most of all, pray and seek God’s mercy upon our land and His people. Ultimately He is our only real hope.
