How is it possible that the American people voted twice for somebody whose only qualifications in life was to be a community (communist) agitator?

Incomparable packaging and a monolithic defense front by the media. My concern is, if they can package a dolt such as 0bama for the Presidency, is a complete nitwit like Warren going to be the turd with a bow on it that passes for a cupcake?

When Lyndon Johnson heard Walter Cronkite turn against the Vietnam War on a CBS radio broadcast, he said, "If I've lost Cronkite, I've lost the country."

Here, the response would be, "If I've lost Maureen Dowd, I've lost my base in the Mainstream Media."

However, losing Richard Haass of the Council on Foreign Relations is a whole other matter. When the CFR turns against a president, he's on his way out. Ask Nixon what happened when the Foreign Policy Community decided he was a liability. Considering that there is a dotted line relationship between the CFR and the Mainstream Media, the whole ballgame may be changing.
