Two mainstream news organizations are receiving hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars from Obamacares Early Retiree Reinsurance Program (ERRP) a $5 billion grant program thats doling out cash to companies, states and labor unions in what the Obama administration considers an effort to pay for health insurance for early retirees. The Washington Post Company raked in $573,217 in taxpayer subsidies and CBS Corporation secured $722,388 worth of Americans money.
It is fine with me if they continue covering the ObamaCare debate, said Rep. Marsha Blackburn, Republican of Tennessee, in an e-mail to The Daily Caller. When NBC used to cover energy issues, they identified themselves as a subsidiary of General Electric. CBS and Washington Post just have to disclose that they are subsidiaries of the Obama Administration.

I always assumed they were no different than a government subsidized entity. This just makes it official.
John Kerry already proposed a “Media Bailout” for newspapers that were dying; PBS has been on the teat for decades and now we know the NBC/CBS/ABC/CNN bias is real, with FINANCIAL implications.
Libs are Government, we, the People (not illegal, not union, not government, not cronies) just get nothing.
It’s a fact.
When Omao got in, all of his moves were calculated to loot US assets. He had a lot of help----COS Wall Street Rahm knew how to make money disappear faster than a cream puff at a Weight Watchers Weigh-in.
Remember that COS Rahm put his brother Zeke in charge of Medicare/Aid and Obamacare zillions. They took over the census for political purposes. Rahm also took over the US Treasury------then the trillion dollar bailouts commenced.
SO HOW DID GANGSTER GOVERNMENT SCAM TRILLIONS? They used the Madoff MO. The court-appointed trustee discovered that Madoff had created a super-secret labyrinth of interrelated international funds, institutions and financial entities of almost unparalleled complexity and breadth......with assets and businesses in multiple places overseas that hid thievery, money laundering and tax evasion.

You are right. Facebook is a great tool for conservative blogging. I do not use my Facebook account for any of that social networking nonsense. My friends and family don't even know I have a Facebook account. But I can blast away at liberals on Congressional Representative Facebook pages anytime I want. It's lots of fun and I would heartily recommend it to anyone who loves liberty. It's a Thomas Paine kind of thing and absolutely free.
But as far as that business of posting pictures of your vacations, loved ones, and pets, I say forget it. Way more information than you want to give out.
This is good stuff.
