Dec 2015

Watch the crawlers.... Listen to Chris Matthews on HardBall... He and the rest speak of Hillary ONLY in terms of her as THE NOMINEE... WHY have the Primary Elections/Caucuses in that case...WHY? This is the Propaganda Machine in ALL of its Glory...

Tell the people WHAT to THINK and they will think it... It is designed to instill in viewers that they truly have no other choice... Hillary is IT so just STFU and get in LINE!!!

While the various shows each evening occasionally have Bernie on, that is just to augment their failing "credibility" when in every segment you wait to hear Hillary's opinion on virtually any and every topic that might possibly considered. It is laughable except for the fact that the consequences of Hillary vs Bernie being the nominee are so relevant to the future of this nation.

The General Election is going on right now and the two nominees are Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton. Guess who is planning to represent our interests and who can be depended upon to do so especially when it comes to Economic Policy including Wall Street as well as Foreign Policy.

The Media is doing the Bidding of their Corporate and Wall Street Masters and the ONLY way that we the people can oppose it is to first call it out in order to inform the less sophisticated among us to fire a warning shot and in the end to ignore their PROPAGANDA.
