>> It means that we are a clear and established threat to MSM's selective promotion of "progressive" topics; <<

Beckel also is down on Internet forums, such as Free Republic, because his livelihood is threatened by it. Instead of just being a buffoon on the tube, he'd have to think and use substantiated facts when he opens his trap.

I dare the Davos Economic Organization, or whatever they are called, to release the tape. They (MSM/Left) have a good thing going. They have an all expensed trip paid to one of the most beautiful winter ski resorts of the world where they can freely spew Anti-American nonsense.

If that tape is released, the good thing just might come to an end for members of Congress at the very least.

Keep in mind that half of DU's traffic is lurking Freepers. I probably spend more time there than on FR.

Good God! Does it hurt when you come back and decompress!?! What do you do to relax, Explosive Ordinance Disposal?

I'm Stuned and Flummoxed!

Long before this Davos deal. His admission that CNN played up to Saddam's regime to gain access should have been a tip.

Reese Schonfeld, co-founder of CNN, said this morning on Fox & Friends, that Jordan should have been fired long ago because he couldn't keep his mouth shut. He said that Jordan got two people killed in Iraq. He called CNN - Confused News Network. lol!

I love it, but it is too easy on them. Cocked-up News Network.

They still don't get the difference between a blog and a forum. LOL!

considering all the higher quality thoughtful threads (no offense meant, dead ;o), I'm sure CNN chose that one thinking it reflected poorly on FR and us.

But actually the way dead posted that thread, it showcases a double standard that its ok to gay bash if it's against conservatives -- so as I see it, ironically, the joke is on CNN.

Well, Bob Beckel, maybe we should ask Tiffany what she thinks about us ---

MIDI - CAMP GRENADA

How's it hanging…Robert Beckel…you will be so fun to heckle
You were seeking out some action…you are lucky your wife's not put you in traction

You were surfing…evening's boring…Tiffany showed off her whoring
She was dressed provocatively…lately your thing had been seeming rather shrively

An appointment you were setting…would there be some heavy petting
At three hundred bucks an hour…you were hoping something would rise like a tower

She arrived and got right to it…oh, yes, Robert…she could do it
You need more than electoral…she would teach you a few tricks about things oral

So you paid six hundred dollars…and your neighbors heard you holler
It was great…but if your wife found out she surely would be quite irate

Just one night's not satisfying…I want more, you started crying
She came back…it's thirteen hundred bucks for Tiffy in the sack

Wait a minute…she's been writing…suddenly it's not exciting
Fifty thousand she's demanding…and the problem for you really is expanding

You had fallen to temptation…now prepare for litigation
But it gets much more exquisite…you heard your wife say Ms. Bobbitt's gonna visit

Chi-towner- Beckel also is down on Internet forums, such as Free Republic, because his livelihood is threatened by it.

Absolutely correct, friend.

Instead of just being a buffoon on the tube, he'd have to think and use substantiated facts when he opens his trap.

And possibly best of all, he and his little liberal chums no longer control the selection of stories. That domain of (substantial) power is shifting to us internet..."lynch mobs" as the childish Beckel might put it.

"Hugh Hewitt was on target on Scarborough tonight regarding how out of step Chrissy, Donaldson, Woodruff and others were recently for not even hearing about this story until after it was a week old."

That's the killer angle. From here on out, everytime the Corrupt Old Media tries to ignore a story, we'll get to ridicule them for not being in touch with the news.

It's a charge that they can't easily deny. What, like they're going to admit that they really *know* about a certain story, but simply refuse to report it to their audiences?!

Of course not. And since they can't admit that truism to their audience, they are left as objects of our ridicule for being out of touch.

'Tis a thing of great beauty.

Especially since they never want to take responsibility for their own actions .. but are too willing to try to blame it on others.

Since Jordan was from CNN - I'd say the report would not be worth watching. However, people will come here and perhaps find out that CNN was not exactly telling it like it is.

CNN, the English language service of al Jazeera.

There you go. The day they both sign off forever will be a great day, and that day cannot come soon enough.
