The majority of the American people still rely upon the MSM to get their information. WE, the political junkies across the net, on both sides, are obviously much more in the game. However, to just acquiesce on the media battle, as the GOP has done the last number of years is having an impact on the perception of the American people. It's obvious through anecdotal observation, polling, comments and the overall sour mood of the country even though we're winning the war, we're safe at home, our economy continues to roll along and we're in really good condition.

Yet, ask the general public about the state of our Nation and the majority will believe we're a month away from depression and world war.

We have seriously been getting our asses kicked in the PR battle about this war, this administration, this economy and this Nation. You can only say "f**k em" so many times before you've lost the game you've always had in front of you.

The GOP base is tired of getting kicked in the teeth and being told to simply turn the other cheek. Especially when it concerns the soldiers who are dying in duty. For the sake of our military, it's time to stop saying "screw em" and to start fighting back.

It can be done without looking hysterical or frantic. It has to be done with a clear eye on the destruction of our enemy - here and abroad.

BINGO! Just because I'm "fed up" doesn't mean I'm apt to fly off the handle like "our friend, Senator Reid"

I'm angry, not hysterical.

A good portion of the public gets news from Rush, and Fox and Sean Hannity.

Thank God for that.

I overheard a couple of people talking about the Plame case the other day, and almost everything they said was garbled or flat out wrong. They couldn't even get Libby's name right, they called him Liddy.

What do you suggest we do to fight back? Serious question! I'd like a real idea.
