“Why is it that the Freepers who never trust what the MSM has to say about anything are the same ones who believe everything that the MSM has to say about Fred being lazy, needing to get some fire, blah, blah, blah?”

“Thank you for saying that! The MSM does not like Fred!”

That is right. The MSM does not like Fred and do not want to even have to mention his name. The reason is they do not want Fred to be the nominee because he would beat ANY DEM he faces. Not only that, he would help the Republican Party gain control of the House and Senate! The MSM is going to HAVE to mention Fred after January 3rd! GO FRED!

Once Fred gets the nomination, they’ll have no choice but to talk about him.

Add to that the fact that most reporters are not from the south, and therefore have the traditional northern bias of “southern accent, deduct 40 IQ points”.

I believe it speaks more of the anti-southern bias that we keep hearing “lazy” “late” “no fire” etc. They can’t really say “stupid” because of all the positions he has published, and the things he has accomplished, so they go to the next tier of nonsense.

I was raised in the north, then moved south, bringing my biases with me. It took me years to get used to the way they do things here.... heck, it took me years to be able to understand them speak! Now that I am part of the culture I understand that “slow and steady and calm” does not mean “dim and lazy and stupid”.
