LOL, and they think they are soooo slick!

[GOP Poet]

and the liberal elite thought they had snookered the redneck ignorants that are not them. No way! The joke is on the ignoramus elites. They aren’t foolin’ a whole lot of people.

[GOP Poet]

Love it!

[hsalaw]

I wonder why they’d think that? More than Matthews have been feeling the tingles and letting all of us know about it. Disgusting.

[chaos_5]

Thanks! I hope the idea catches on. =o)

[Libertina]

Absolutely wonderful! Obama is like a big daddy long legs stumbling around...

[Snurple]

People know whats going on. Every time Obama opens his arrogant mouth, every time the media tells the public what they should do, every time they try to make Sarah Palin out to be an ignorant redneck....Ka-Ching! ....more votes for Mc/Palin. Liberals are mentally ill, they refuse to believe they are wrong...so everyone else must be. This will be the most lopsided election in the history of this country and the libs have only themselves to blame.

A CHANGE is gonna come. People are gonna CHANGE the channel and not watch these anchors anymore. They are going to CHANGE their reading habits. They are “tuned in” to what the Major Media is saying, “turning on” to the alternative means of communication, and “tuning out” on the daily DNC talking points.

A change is gonna come.
A change is gonna come.

The jig is up.

You gotta laugh at the liberal elitists. They try to bend the will of the country to their high brow concepts of reality breed from urban centeres of unreality. Then when their numbers drop, papers don't sell and the people dare turn against them they wonder what happened. Unfortunately for them the stylistic aspects of network programming are derived top down and the owners are so egotistical as to know what's best for America since they are so rich: Being rich defines their right... Change will only occur when the debate is taken to the country as it is now and the news media is exposed for what it is. We've lost perspective in this country, debate and political understanding and involvement not withstanding.

I see hope though, this election cycle is teaching us all valuable lessons about how politics and politicians affect our lives and it doesn't seem that we as whole are all that thrilled with the results of the last 30 years or so. I envision us as a Nation taking these lessons and building upon them, bringing about a new era of accountability, ourselves to government and government to us. We the People, not We the Sheeple!! And the ones in government that don't get it - let's toss them the Hell out!

You must be mistaken, they Said their unbiased, so they must be, right?

ok I’d be extremely gullible to believe that.

“I think 69% is pretty low.”

It’s a lot better than it was in 1981. Back then it was pretty easy to feel like the Lone Ranger.

The Liberal Dinosaur Media can see their influence waning and are using it in a last desperate attempt to elect their socialist buddy. They realize that they will have only half as much influence 4 years from now. So use it or loose it.
