Dec 7, 1941 and Sept 11, 2001 were historic days also. Calling something “historic” does not make it good Fake News.

As is often said as encouragement to hard working people.

You don't fail until you quit and give up.

The media is not achieving its objective, but it is not going to quit or give up trying.

Hence, it has not yet failed.

The media didn’t drive W Bush’s numbers down. W drove them down by behaving like a democrat. He ran his own base off.

It’s not a historic day, it is a day of shame for Democrats.

Yep, they sure did. If the GOP hadn’t screwed the pooch during the 2018 election cycle, none of this would be happening.

Maybe my memory is faulty, but when Clinton was impeached (he committed perjury — a real crime) I don’t recall the media doing much of a “gut check”. They basically were attacking the Vast Rightwing Conspiracy and declaring how unfair the whole thing was.

In some respects, not that different from today. Except now the media is on the losing end and professing shock.

First thing Trump needs to do after 2024 is write a book.

..Dec 7, 1941

That brings to mind a line from an old movie that predicts what will happen in the next 11 months. It's a line from "Tora, Tora, Tora"..after the attack..I think it's from Admiral Yamamoto...standing on the bridge of one of the Japansese aircraft carriers. ...He says: "I am afraid we have awakened a sleeping giant".

That is what I think will happen in the November elections.. a sleeping giant has been awakened with this sham impeachment.

Through out time generations will see them for the corrupt yet petty party they really are.
Cheaters, liars and crooks.

Rush’s analysis is very naive. He still thinks media bias is simply a result of spontaneous liberal group-think.

The MSM does not operate independently. They are directed to spout their lunacy by their corporate bosses who themselves take instructions from the globalist puppet masters. In addition, many of these reporters have a direct pipeline to deep state operatives who feed them talking points - for which they are financially compensated.

Anyone who is unfamiliar with it, look up Project Mockingbird.

Spot on.

It’s like the FBI making “mistakes”. No. No, they didn’t. It was all intentional, and ordered from the top.

And the Leftwing media isn’t engaging in group-think. They are following orders.

Yep. Bush made a conscience decision to remain mute when faced with withering criticism of him and of conservative values and policies. It was as if he was embarrassed and ran away from Conservatives.

In the end, Conservatives ran away from him. There is no other statistical explanation as to how a president get into the 30s without losing their base. Bush clearly abandoned his base and they returned the favor.

There are many factors in determining media bias. But by a significant margin is the academic indoctrination of the intellectually confused in Colleges & Universities. The Corporate "bosses" to whom you refer, while not all from the same academic victim pool, were largely programed by similar compulsion driven academics. Because they are well paid, they may appear to be pulling the strings on the puppets, but they are actually co-victims of the same evil.

Who is issuing the orders?

CIA / Soros / China / some people within Saudi Arabia

Some combination of the above.

Historic, because the Dems are doomed to be damned by history.

As of tomorrow, President Trump's name will never be uttered or written in the MSM without the designation "impeached."
