What remains now, as more and more democrat and leftist abuses continue to surface, is WHAT are "we the people" going to do? Do we just sit back and assume there is nothing we CAN do? Scream into the blogosphere? Call Rush's show to b&tch?
There is less than 2 years to the "big show" and I (for one) am sick to death of all the media attention and prognostication regarding which RINO will be our candidate. And one more pic of Pelosi and that damn gavel and I WILL scream...
Now ladies and gentlemen just imagine the caterwauling and calls for investigation by the media if Burglar had been a Republican. MSNBC, Matthews, Olbermann, and the rest of the gang of liberal idiots would be screaming to high heaven about it. But since Socks the burglar is a Democrat...well then, intense silence and/or the chirping of crickets is the only thing one hears.
This all screams the question, "Why has the media allocated so little focus on this?"
... The average reporter... once had a stronger loyalty to his craft than his biases -- perhaps the path to the good old days is through the future, and current journalism majors can lead us back to excellence.Today however,
... [T]he media's five-to-one ratio of liberals to conservatives (as was reported by the Pew Foundation in 2004) is having a deleterious impact on us all in that we're only fully protected when the GOP commit the offense.... Every once in a while a story of great magnitude arises in a way that provokes such little initial coverage that it effectively hides in plain sight. When this occurs, it's either because the original news worthiness appears to be at a lower level of importance, or because those with direct and indirect vested interests have enough aggregate influence so as to play down the story in question.
The Watergate scandal is an example of the first; Sandy Berger removing and extinguishing protected records of national security exemplifies the second.
... What happened to that kind of passionate investigative journalism? Sandy Berger stealing and destroying classified documents is a story with so many startling facts already in evidence, even the layman newshound should think to ask, "What else is being hidden and what are the motives?"
Why is robbing national security documents less important than robbing campaign documents?
Worse than Watergate
