CNN is displaying why they are losing market share. It's unwise to insult potential customers. A number of years ago my mother was considering an auto purchase. She had identified 4 or 5 models she was somewhat interested in but wanted to just see what they looked like before digging deeper. I took her to several dealerships to see what they looked like in real life instead of just internet photos. At one dealership she looked at a car and wanted to move on to the next place and a “salesperson” told us we'd be stupid to not want to take a test drive. Well, he was stupid for insulting us to our face. Needless to say, they never got a purchase from her...and they never will from me either.

Heh heh heh. Keep it up. They (CNN and fellow travelers)truly have no idea who we are and why we’re doing this. They are so far out of touch that their blindness is and will be a fatal one.

CNN does not viewers who question Big Brother.
CNN is telling people to go away and then surprised when people go away.

I remember when news was considered the first draft of history. Now its become the first draft of revisionist history. Doesn’t postmodernism really suck?

He’s right. A WHOLE bunch of conservatives and independents. A tsunami of conservatives and independents. And there he is without an umbrella ...
