What we have in America, and increasingly in the world, is a rule by the Media. Don't fool yourself into thinking that you have a voice, you don't. The Media tells the masses what to think, and that shapes elections. Even with a Republican government, we get liberal legislation because doing otherwise would mean political disaster. So long as people consider the media untouchable (and let the media cartel hide behind the 1st amendment), this charade will continue and conservatives will rail against the increasing liberalism of this country without knowing why it's an inexorable trend.

Again, one question begs to be answered. How did the left manage to completely take over the media, education (at all levels), and the entertainment industry, while all-powerful big business/big money stood by helplessly?

It seems to me that with the internet, with conservative forums (the premier example of which is FR) the big liberal media no longer has a stranglehold on the flow of information.

With talk radio conservatives and Fox News, with the scandals of the NYT, the beginning of the end of liberal domination of information is at hand.
