Asking too much

[SoFlaJets]

watching Hardball last night I saw Frank Luntz complaining about the media,echoing the RW chant of last week.They already have the SCLM in their breast pockets and they expect even more.They want pictures of Iraqi children going off to a well lit school with crystal waters running thru the hallway fountains.Ya know they already have it their way-not once showing wounded Americans or coffins being unloaded.Not since the first days of Afganistan have I seen that picture from the media.They want it all-- my feeling is they are asking for too much and there has to be a critical mass approaching and I just pray it's not too late b4 it happens.We need more Molly Ivins,Paul Krugmans,Joe Conansons,Eric Altermans,and Greg Palasts-a little more Randi Rhodes too bad none of thier veiwpoints make it onto the nightly news.I don't know but maybe the flap over this Reagan movie is the beginning of the media saying enough is enough.

1. I thought it had to be critical mass when I saw Blitzkrieg talking to

teenagers about a new reality show on MTV about rich girls (for an hour).

But I was wrong. There is no end...it is a bottomless pit.

4. The voting classes do not care about schools or troop limbs

What they would like to see more of the troops loyally doing their jobs blowing off the limbs of Iraqi children.

If the regime wishes to increase the pleasure of the voting class, the media should be instructed to show them more dead Muslims.

There will be plenty of time to shed tears over the troops a few years hence, at the dedication of a very moving memorial statue somewhere in Washington.

Remember most troops do not come from the voting class, and joined the military in order to have a chance at the brass rings of health care and education, their chances for obtaining either in the free market being nil, and both the conditions of their servitude and the level of outrage at their expenditure on the part of the affluent class reflect that.
