Mainstream Media far worse than ever thought..an example..Jesse Jackson Jr.

I thought to myself, "What the hell is all this coverage on Jesse Jackson Jr and the mental breakdown?"
People have mental breakdowns all the time, leave him and his family alone. The mainstream media seems to be
giving it far greater play than anyone might expect. Leave them alone..

That is not it. It has to do with guilt by assoiciation. Jesse Jackson is a well known Afro-American leader who can polarize
the electorate. He is very strong willed in his beliefs and quite controversial. This is his son. It doesn't matter that they
are two different people. They are the same to the mainstream media. like father, like son..

But that is not it...nope...By putting the name Jesse Jackson out there, and he promotes deep hate from the gut, on many
levels.to many people...yes, controversial, loud, outspoken, ..over and over and over to people that hate..hate. Remember Rev. Wright?.


Now are there any other well known Afro-American politicians out there that the main stream media would like to trash and get rid of?
A fellow in the White House??? guilt by assoication??? think about it?....

That is why there is so much Jesse Jackson Jr out there...Main stream outlets..over and over and over..
Yes it is ugly beyond belief.....so what else is new?

An interesting view of the job market.

I have a route to visit a friend that passes around O'hara Airport. I have been taking that route for several years.. In the last year or so, I have been looking for help wanted signs. Job openings at the manufacturing companies that sorround the west side of the
airport. Occasionally there have been 2 or at the most 3 openings. and those close up within a few days. Last week, I noticed seven help wanted signs, ranging from truck driver to assembler to stock person ...etc. And these were open longer than before. They are still open as of last Monday.

Seven is the most that I have ever seen. I sure hope this increase in help wanted signs really means something. If it does, and it holds, then Obama is in.
