5. There is something fundamentally out of whack
when FAUX News (according to this particular measure, at least) is actually being the most "fair and balanced"! :scared:

2. I've been screaming the same thing! There's no equal time. No Democrats anywhere to be found
I no longer watch the M$M con scam. I only watch Keith, Rachel and Bill Moyers. I'll watch 60 Minutes on Sunday but that's it.

Turn the T.V. off; it'll drive you crazy!! :(

3. I turned off Morn Joe because...
I can only take a little bit at a time. So I switched to cspan and there was one of the cnbc talking heads talking about populist rhetoric and what he thinks the Dems and Obama need to do. These people really think that WE THE PEOPLE are stupid and don't know what is going on. They are want Obama to continue the Bush policies as though they have won.

They are trying to get there hands on the Bailout and the stimulus when they already have gotten the first 350 billion. WE THE PEOPLE are not suppose to see that this is welfare for the rich. I heard one of these people this morning say that they should not vote on this bill for 2or3 months. Are these people for real, do they really realize how bad it is in this country,by that time they will need to double the stimulus..

12. The media invites few if any Dems on their shows - so Democratic proposals can then be spun and bad
mouthed by neocon and republican talking heads.

4. How many times did the media try to sink Obama during the election?
For all the Republican nonsense of him recieving such great media treatment he didn't. The reason why he won is he took his message to the American People directly and didn't rely on the news channels to do it for him.

That is what he needs to do again.

8. They have been talking all weekend and it...
will get worse throughout the week. I can't wait till this evening to see what other tricks they will be pulling out of their trickbag,they don't give a damn about the people. They seem to be trying to make the economy really crash and they want a few more million unemployed.

9. That never had any jurisdiction over cable. The FCC only regulates over-the-air broadcasting.

I also now have heard that the Republicons are calling congress more than Dems to tell them to go against the stimulus package. Have the people gone to sleep again?
