I don't know about you (I have an idea) but I'm sick and tired of the MSM burying good news!

Bump!

God Bless America and George W. Bush.

[BigSkyFreeper]

It's the canned Bush/America bashing that the Left so ham-handedly dishes out that I hate.

...Disguised as reporting. I agree. The media has an agenda and they're sticking to it. I still cannot figure out why so many people are shocked or surprised at an agenda driven media to this very day. I'm neither shocked or surprised. To them (the media), every opportunity is an opportunity to bash the President, as long as that President is a Republican. The Democrats, by default get a pass and a general whitewash and kidglove treatment by the media.

No cannibalism?

Give it time.

It is sad, I know. I grew up in Alabama. We were not a rich family in $$$ by no means. I was at least fed, clean, had clothes, a home, but we were not rich or rolling in money. My dad worked. My mom raised 4 kids at home. We were all made to go to school. My mother told us we could never quit school, that we all were going to get an education. When I left home at 18 and joined the Army, my father told me my life was now my own, that I was responsible for it, that I could make or break it myself, it was in my hands. He told me I had to find a skill that I could use and sell to employers or I could sit on my butt and be a bum. I found the skill. All four of us made much larger paydays than my dad did. We all made a good life for ourselves and families. We were not rich, but much better off. We all enjoy a good life. It was all because my mother and father taught me right from wrong, good from evil, to treat people as you want them to treat you, to get "book learning", to do what is right, be respectful of your elders, etc, etc. I am dependent on no government, no government official, nobody. I am responsible for myself. I am not letting the government hold a hand-out over my head to get me to beg or do as they want me to do. No, not in 1000000000000000000000 years!!

LMAO!!

I'm really glad you posted this thread. We really are not hearing these great stories at all.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

It goes beyond that.

With Clinton it was almost like a daily blessing on the country. He do something "good" that would be reported on the evening news.

[PeoplesRepublicOfWashington]

But Shep's psychoneurotic behavior, even though normal and true, only serves to exacerbate the problem--and to inform us of his unprofessionalism. Does he really think we can't see the ghastly images his cameraman is broadcasting to us and interpret them for ourselves? Damn! He's on TV, not radio. If his normal and true feelings are flowing out of control, why not act to bring aid to the victims? How about begging, off camera, for Fox News to rent a nearby chopper and start flying in cases of bottled water? They could evacuate a couple of critically ill people each run, as well. Geez, use your influence in a positive manner. Lead, follow, or get out of the way, but don't use your position to fan the flames of hysteria.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Not to mention the msm lies of omission.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

I think he's doing that too.

You can't change his stripes but I think he is beginning to "get it."

[BigSkyFreeper]

The last thing anyone should be doing is panicking. The media is sure doing it's best to stoke the fear and panic. It's typical Liberalism; all emotion, no substance.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

........I think this catastrophe has affected Shep deeply. Giving a report the other day he said simply, "Mississippi is my home."

Good.

Americans our our lifeline and America is our home.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

It's the family and we need to keep it.

Family is the bedrock of America.

Your parents did their job.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Radio host Mark Levin even told his audience the other day, not to panic, otherwise that will be a quick route down that road to gas shortages, and all kinds of chaos.

If everyone kept their heads about them, this whole mess could get cleaned up in an orderly fashion alot quicker.

***....Also outside Reliant Arena the, the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was checking in animals.

One of the animals checked in was a five-year-old golden retriever mix named Precious. She and her owner swam for two days to escape the flooding. She was being loaded into a carrier that will be taken to the SPCA, which has taken in 300-400 animals onsite. ....***

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Yes! Houston churches have been front and center with every thing they have.

All around the county American citizen and business are rushing to do what they can, and more.

[TheDon]

The MSM covers Katrina news about as good as they cover Iraq news. They can do better, much, much better.
