I simply don’t get what the press is getting out of all their BO adulation. Yes, I believe that some of them were truly die-hard libs but I figured most of them were creatures of opportunity. What does licking BO’s toes get them? The Dem Congress is at less than a 20% approval and BO’s approval is on a downward spiral. And it’s not like they’er getting invited to all the cool parties and told how wonderful they are. BO and the WH look upon them with contempt and disdain. They’re told to sit down and only speak what they’re told when they’re told to. Surely some of these so-called journalists chafe at that? Surely some of them thought being a journalist meant questioning bs? I could see them selling their souls if their ratings were going up but ratings are in the toilet. Even my sister, who thought Brian Williams was the son of her personal savior, Tom Brokaw, has had her eyes opened in the last few months. Why is practically all the media still trying to do BO’s bidding? I just don’t get it.....

They simply don’t know what else to do. Sure, clinton gave them almost daily cocktail parties on the White House lawn, with choice ord’oeuvres and Hollywood starlets. Obama gives them nothing. He simply snaps his fingers when he wants them, and they come running.

But what else are they to do? Admit that they were wrong? Admit that Communists aren’t all that nice after all? Admit that Bush and Cheney were right?

Never. Not till the Muslim nukes start going off in our cities and their colleagues are hauled off to the re-education camps. And maybe not even then.

Liberalism is a religion. They’ve been brainwashed since kindergarten. So admitting they were wrong is a very big deal.

Why is Obama doing this to them? Surely it can’t be that he is a Communist, Muslim, American-hating, power-drunk, malignant narcissist who loves no one but himself? Surely these odd behavioral quirks will straighten out sometime soon.

I did some research several years back on Soros and found that he had huge stock amounts in Time (including NYTimes) and CBS...wonder who his cronies are that have large stock amounts in ABC and NBC...MSNBC we know GE is there...but the money is in covert hands. That is where the power is...the ones that have the hidden stocks and the hidden money...these people are the “enemies of THE people”! It’s like Progressive Insurance being part of the Soros group against Bush being President and pushed for Obama’s presidency. I find that interesting during this health care debacle.

I've wondered that too. But progressives are very slow to realize how misled and played they get. Hollywood is STILL fawning over Gore and Moore. And Obama. Ironically, "progressives" just do not catch on very quickly.
