"Have you noticed that it's like all the major media and print magazines are on the same page. It's like somebody snapped their fingers, and it's 'Everybody pile on the Bush administration'. They are pulling out all the stops on this one."

HA!!
Well bert, there ya have it.

Seems *someone* had said -- all along -- that the only thing the Liberal-Socialist Democratic quisling mediots in the lamestream were doing (back during the war when all those glowing approval poll numbers proving 'em wrong were coming out?) were doing was regrouping.
Remember? :o)

Kind of obvious they've finished deciding on an organized strategy & are rebounding *back* with a vengence.
Same old same old, with nothing changed one iota.

Now this poster appears to have nailed the leftist mediot mo dead-on, alright; but, the real question now shifts to, "Will a solid majority of the nation catch the Liberal-Socialist Democratic ploy, too; or, is the nation going to permit itself to once again be suckered by the sycophant quisling leftists infesting the nation's information system?"

...we shall see.

Let me guess. Could that someone be (Mack the Knife? .... oops .... sorry .... just slipped out .... been havin' '50s flashbacks :)

Was that a rhetorical question, Dan? If it wasn't you have much more faith in the analytical abilities of the average citizen than I (to even contemplate that the leftist media/entertainment/political propaganda powers that be will not have their way with public opinion .... yet again).

If it was (rhetorical), don't bother to read any further. We're on the same page on this one (as usual).

Do the words (1) Watergate, (2) Vietnam, (3) Iran Contra, (4) It's the Economy, Stupid, ring a bell? Leftists can (and are prepared to) chant any anti-conservative refrain until their throats are sore. But long before the soreness sets in, the public will wind up believing the words and the tune. As Hitler knew all too well, sufficient repetition, artfully aimed at minds too disinterested to weigh the truth of its content, is more valuable than facts.

I received this from a friend a couple of days ago:

Sad Announcement

Today we mourn the passing of an old friend, Common Sense. Common Sense lived a long life, but died in the United States from heart failure early in the new millennium. No one really knows how old he was, since his birth records were lost long ago amid bureaucratic red tape. He selflessly devoted his life to service in schools, hospitals, homes, and factories, helping folks get jobs done without fanfare and foolishness.

For decades, petty rules, silly laws, and frivolous lawsuits held no power over Common Sense. He was credited with cultivating such valued lessons as to know when to come in out of the rain, why the early bird gets the worm, and that life isn't always fair.

Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you earn), reliable parenting strategies (the adults are in charge, not the kids), and its okay to come in second. A veteran of the Industrial Revolution, the Great Depression, and the Technological Revolution, Common Sense survived cultural and educational trends including body piercing, whole language, and ‘new math.’ But his health declined when he became infected with the ‘If-it-only-helps-one-person-it's-worth-it’ virus.

In recent decades his waning strength proved no match for the ravages of well intentioned but overbearing regulations. He watched in pain as good people became ruled by self-seeking lawyers. His health rapidly deteriorated when schools endlessly implemented zero tolerance policies.

Reports of a six-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate, a teen suspended for taking a swig of mouthwash after lunch, and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student only worsened his condition. It declined even further when schools had to get parental consent to administer aspirin to a student but could not inform the parent when a female student was pregnant or wanted an abortion.

Common Sense lost his will to live as the Ten Commandments became contraband, churches became businesses, criminals received better treatment than victims, and federal judges stuck their noses in everything from the Boy Scouts to professional sports. When an individual, too stupid to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot, was awarded a huge settlement, Common Sense threw in the towel.

As the end neared, Common Sense drifted in and out of logic but was kept informed of developments regarding questionable regulations such as those for low flow toilets, rocking chairs, stepladders and auto emissions. Common Sense finally succumbed when, while the United States was fighting a war on terrorism, a federal judge declared the Pledge of Allegiance to be unconstitutional.

Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents, Truth and Trust; his wife, Discretion; his daughter, Responsibility; and his son, Reason. He is survived by two step siblings: My Rights, and Ima Whiner.

Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone.

I think we could all add a few more paragraphs of our own, but why beat a dead horse?

P.S. I was (good-naturedly) accused by a friend today of being too negative lately, so I've determined to add a little positive to every conversation. Here goes: My tomato plants are doing beautifully -- counted seventy-six tomatoes on them this afternoon.

(that’s because leftists had nothing to do with their planting, or the weather – oops, borderline negativity, huh? So sue me. :).
