I repeat with our press it is missing in action and really it's more like KIA I like maddow until she shills because POTUS had a bad night, big ed and a couple of other msnbc people, that's it!!!!! Every since 9/11 and Bush's lying us into war using the Pearl Harbor scenario our press has moved steadily to the right. Electronic and print. NYT<NPR used to be my beacons for telling the truth at least some of the time, not anymore. Current TV and a few others, DU being one, are our only hope of getting the 'truth'....Give me a break. Free press my ass!!!!!: If during the Bush presidency anyone said anything disparaging about Bushmonkey and darthcheney the press was all over it and the sucker that said it ended up in gitmo. All of the ugly directed toward our current POTUS has been kept OUT of the MSM because first we think we're fooling the world by omitting the truth about the racism and stupidity of a lot of foolish amerikkkans, yet he makes a misstep and they are all over it saying he's a loser. Wrong! The internet took care of that and so far we still can get the truth. Oh and should I even begin to comment on on how our POTUS and mittsnake have been treated this particular election season? You don't want me to go there. I condemn them with all vituperation and bile I can muster!. facepalm:
