I am surprised in that quite a few commenters besides you and I remarked on a belief that the Old Media’s going to flip soon.
I think FreeRepublic, radical Conservatives that we are accused of being, have a pretty good handle on the country’s prevailing sentiment cause, well we’re are that country.
Still i thought I would be excoriated for my assertion. Another commenter gave specific examples of a bending Old Media from today’s line up of talk shows, in fact.
I mean, damn, how long can you believe it’s raining when someone is urinating upon your feet proclaiming it to be rain? Sooner or later there is an odor, perhaps the yellow color of the rain gets suspicious, at some point one would surely notice there are not clouds in the sky?
Let the Old Media get a taste of what it’s like to finally be talking the truth for a change. How refreshing that will be!
Then some of those “journalists” can get busy sniffing out real stories, do exposes...that kind of thing. Maybe even pose as a hooker and a pimp and catch a taxpayer funded organization that majorly brought Obamer into power in the act of aiding in child prostitution but I know that’s a stretch.
As to what news orgs. will topple first, I’d go with NBC cause GE won’t still own it and be waiting for those millions of green jobs’ money, heh. Then CBS, ABC....they’ll see their viewership begin to climb and they’ll like it.
MSNBC...the NY TIMES? Never. MSNBC would have to fire everyone and the NY Times has all those metrosexuals reporting the news. Watch Chris Matthews though. I know he’s hurting, wanting to bad to be part of the national dialogue and being forced to be a stupid tingly legged liberal to get any ears. I think Chrissy’s about to bolt.
Newspapers are yesterday and will likely never recover.
2010 is gonna be a year of big changes as I see it.
WHITE CAT IS STILL IN TREE!
Global warming will go down as one of the biggest scams ever.
You will know when our side is winning the GW war when you just stop hearing about it from the DBM. That's how they cover an issue they lose.
We have the final say on who is approved to fly into our country. The failure was on our end.
Zing!
I am happy to report...
...the WHITE CAT IS NOW OUT OF THE TREE! We saw him walking around our shed just a bit ago.
Nap time now for me.
What say you?
_______________
I love your stories and I think people that never cared about current events, politics are now outraged and paying attention. That..... is a very god thing. Oh, and the cat will eventually come down. It’s probably just enjoying the view for a while. :)
You are exactly right!
>> We have the final say on who is approved to fly into our country. The failure was on our end.
Fly much?
So glad you enjoy my stories although they are most ordinary. I tend to stick tongue in cheek in the retelling and if this amuses, glad to do so.
You likely were writing your post when I was writing mine about cat and tree...that she is now down.
So you were quite correct about that. I was mentally hooking up garden hose and seeking tuna fish for later in the day as my confidence began to wane.
;)
Maybe he reads FreeRepublic before going in front of the camera. He's be a lot more knowledgable if he did.
He’s —> He’d
The doctor I work for (retiring January 1).... got so angry at being told my RN’s and even non- RN’s what he could and could not do.... I imagine it’s about to get sooooooo much worse!
Sorry, I meant Bill, not Robert... I get their names confused at times... yes, Bill is appearing frequently on Fox now.
Fly much?
Read much?
As I said we have the final say on who is approved to fly into our country. The failure was on our end.
A friend of mine who is a huge Beck fan, asked her California brother some questions about his knowledge of what is going on in this country... he was clueless... totally clueless... she told him he really needed to at least start watching Fox so he would have a clue about what is going on that affects all of us.
Maybe you haven’t heard it yet. President zero said this past week that we are now winning the war because zero changed course and he’s correcting all the mistakes GW made. Expect zero to claim the war as his own as he claims victory.
The expected scenario is GWB started two wars and was losing both of them. Now that Zero has been elected, his war efforts are going to win them both. Once again, the world will have been saved by a courageous and great leader of the free world. < /s >
The first one I heard was Nakita Dean banging the podium w/his shoe. The next day Rush starts calling him Nakita and I almost choked it was so great.
Happy New Year, heading for the Rose Bowl
Go Ducks!
