Don't let the media spin this shit topped with a bit of whipped cream as a chocolate sundae

It is a pile of shit!

The Repubs just lost the Majority Leader and their Senate leader is in a fight.

The Pubbies are eating the shit Sundae of hate they created.

If this was reversed the media was creating the meme already, such as, perhaps the Democrats came out in force to oust Cantor to set up a referendum on Guns.

And before someone posts that may not be accurate, that is the point, the media would have created a meme to put the Dems on defense.

That is absurd.

It is going to hurt Dems if they push the idea, because it is apparent to almost everybody else that it isn't true.

Btw, the media have been lap dogs for Obama and the Dems since 07, with very rare exceptions.

I'm sorry to say all of this, but I have to deal in reality, and what you and some others are pushing tonight re: Cantor are talking points and spin with little to nothing to do with reality.

The media that ran with Joe the plumber, the Media who report on the grass roots upswelling of tea party rallys (with a hundred people or less), etc.. That media has been in the pocket of Obama all this time? The media who still give conservatives far greater representation in interviews, etc. They are in Democrats favor?
