[excerpt]

We hate the media in general, but we love afternoon talk show hosts John & Ken of KFI radio in Los Angeles. And if the media ignores their movement, we will give them a hand.

The talk team drew 15,000 people last week to their “Revolt, Recall, Repeal Rally” to protest California’s $50 billion tax increase and to begin recall efforts aimed at the governor and several state legislators. it was covered locally, but did you see any national coverage? Ten NOW protestors on the on the White House steps makes news, but not 15,000 in a tax revolt? Of course, we’re not surprised.

I’m guessing they were all hard working white taxpayers. >some sarcasm<

The MSM IS the face of the enemy ... and needs to be treated as such

There are more homeless people in America now due to the democrats tax and spend stimulus, yet the media is silent on that, too.

A couple of thousand years ago this week, the sun, the earth and the moon were aligned in the positions we have this week. The Israelites were so fearful of Moses' absence that they asked Aaron to "Come, make us a god (elohim, literally "gods"[Exodus 32:1]).

I guess the community felt that ANY diversion from the people's fears of abandonment was as comforting as any other.

But I digress. I betcha if 15,000 California citizens showed up today and worshiped a golden calf, the drive-bys would be RIGHT THERE bellowing it to high heaven.

This will grow as the shock of California’s new taxes start hitting. I’ll bet they get 50,000 at the next event. Will it be covered? Probably not!

Seriously? The L.A. Times or O.C. Register chose not to cover it?

And they WONDER why subscribers are down...

Live by your politics, die by them.

I saw with my own eyes (I was touring) CNN make 50 scruffy anti-Bush dirtbags in Washington, D.C. look like a protest rally of 10,000.

It was all done by the magic of camera angle and camera positioning, and it was a total fake CNN “news report”.

Meanwhile CNN et al intentionally cover-up and refuse to report the REAL news of a spontaneous 15,000 person anti-Obama rally.

We can almost see the future There are more guns now than ever before in the hands of our citizens. As we move forward we hear reports and vids on the internet of rallies across the country that are getting louder and attracting more and more people, this seems to be escalating to a point where it will only take a single incident that will plunge us into a second revolution. The bottom hasnt fallen out but when it happeneds it will happen fast and there will be no turning back. Let us all hope for a peaceful resolutions, may calm heads prevail!
