No, that sound that the Mainstream News Media is doing its best to filter out and cast in a prejudicial light is the sound of people waking up from the dream of being held in the warm embrace of a motherly and progressive government that wants to make everything “all right” and realizing that they have been encircled in the cold embrace of the mother of all boa constrictors- The Progressive Left. It is the cry of people who have finally found their resistance to the personal charm and political capital of the new administration and realized that if there is any hope of stopping the slow but inexorable strangulation that is already under way, they must act with passion and urgency. Like me, they are not just disappointed; they are in despair and futile rage.

With all the felons and dead people cancelling out my vote, I daresay the ballot box has failed me. Next stop: Cartridge box.

CNN Uses Pro-Communist American to Tout Cuban Health Care

There’s something deeply wrong with journalism that scrutinizes and criticizes the institutions of free and successful nations, but produces puff pieces on the supposed achievements of totalitarian dictatorships. On Thursday, CNN aired a piece of Communist Party propaganda about how Cuba could serve as “a model for health care reform” in the United States, complete with an authoritative sound bite from an American medical expert, identified only as someone “who’s lived and worked in Cuba for decades.”
But the expert, Gail Reed, is a longtime admirer of the Cuban revolution, married to the Cuban official who served as ambassador to Grenada in the early 1980s when U.S. troops liberated the island from hardline communists who had executed the leftist Prime Minister Maurice Bishop. She's also worked at Granma, Cuba’s official communist party newspaper.

As for Reed, she was profiled in the Miami Herald back in 1983 after she and her husband returned to Cuba after American forces liberated Grenada. She talked about the fear she felt at seeing U.S. Marines surrounding the Cuban embassy, and told the newspaper, “I feel I have a very strong identification with the Cuban revolution.”
“When I first came to Cuba in the ’70s, I was very impressed with their efforts in building a new kind of society,” Reed explained.
Ahh yes, If only she could have met Che in person... One less useful idiot.
This is a most brilliant blog!
It is just enough thought with a tinge of rage and it sums up all the emotion and thoughts I have had about both parties of late.
The Republicans want to think that ‘we’ are fighting for THEM, but ‘we’ are just as ticked off at them as we are the Democrats. They might also find their face full of shock at some point in the future when they think they will walk into a Townhall meeting to rounds of applause.
Yes, I actually am even more furious with the Repubs- Compassionate Conservatism- My Ass!
She has typical look of the ugly cult.
These are posters about the gentle caring left asking our fellow citizens to turn in the names of troublesome conservatives....
Yes, based on their frequent facial expressions, many do seem to suffer from chronic hemorrhoids.
Hmm- Its that squint to avoid seeing reality, screw up your face to avoid looking like you are lying and don’t let the shitty words touch your tongue on the way out look.
