"We're not pajama people anymore, now we are sub-media."

But can we still eat subs sitting at our computers in our pajamas? That's the important question, LOL!

Sour grapes soon to turn to "whine" by Kerry nad the DimoWits. I am SO glad we dodged the double bullets of him and Teh-RA-zah. *SHIVER*

not so good when you can't control the msm eh? Well, Johnny get used to it. It's a new era, a new world and a new generation of news reporters out there and guess what? They aren't gonna kiss your arse! Get used to it cause they are here to stay. It's a free country and you nor the dem/libs don't much like it when they aren't in charge. Ha,ha,ha....this guy is one solid joke.

Democrats should have outlawed voting while they had the chance.

Too late now.

I believe it was Kruschev who said "We will bury you" and "we will take your country without firing a shot".

Kerry is living proof that they are still trying.

Although I agree with your sentiment, what about Mc'Drools Campaign Finance Reform?

"It can't happen here" is a fools dream.

I think that is what happens when these guys are so fixated on becoming president their entire lives. Only I don't think Kerry has gone as far off the deep end as Gore did. Not yet at least.

In case you missed that, Kerry says the problem is the lack of an arbitrator to control the dissemination of news>

In World War II the Germans had an arbitrator of the news. His name was Goebbels. Perhaps this is the type of media Mr. Kerry yearns for??

Heh JF Kerry - a man who took an oath, I believe to uphold the constitution - which part of the below don't you understand?

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; >or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

Future 9th circuit interpritation of the 1st amendment.

"The original intent of the founders was to provide full political speech for professional journalists. Citizens who engage in recreational political speech are protected by access to professional journalists and thus the government has a reasonable interest in limiting recreational political speech in favore of professional political speech.

In looking to resources outside the US constitution such as the EU constitution. We see that the trend of governing bodies around the world have included such limitations on individual speech in favor of the collective right of society to promote professional journalism. The United States must take note of such international precidents in order to harmonize US law with the global society.

Permitting individual free speech on the internet, particularly unfettered individual comentary and reaction to professional journalist articles is tantamount to yelling fire in a crowded theater. Such instantaneous critique of political articles is contrary to the vision of the foundes who would have only been able to envision response times of days if not weeks. There is no fundamental right to instant free speech without appropriant contemplation or editorial review.

Citizens have always had the leters to the editor to respond and broadcast media have taken up the tradition via reading letters to them at the end of their broadcasts. Society has an interest in having those letters pass through a professional review process. It levels the review field of amanature journalists by providing them access to the editorial review process.

Therefore we find that the internet forums and blogs which are maintained by and permit posting by non-professional journalists do no have a first amendment right as envisioned by the founding fathers."


Just a thought...

Rush was just talking about this today. Played the quotes of Kerry. Rush had a good take on the "sub-media". Kerry in a swift boat taken down by shots fired from under the water by a sub. Ok, sounded funnier when he said it.

Kerry has to run for his senate seat again in '06. Sounds as if he's already worried.

Can we help with a little push?
Point, John Kerry did not and will not have the leadership skills to be POTUS proven by his blaming everyone else for HIS failures.
