Ok Media people.. maybe you missed the memo
I posted this on Friday, maybe some of you missed it. So hear it is again, and mind you, I'm not fucking kidding around. This is no "game" to me.

Ok Media people, I know you guys lurk around in here. This is how this is gonna go down. We are willing to forgive you for kissing the presidents ass for all these years. We are willing to forget that you spent the last 5 years sitting on your hands while this corrupt administration stole our country out from under us. But now you have seen with your own eyes, the ineptitude and the arrogance that lie at the heart of this administration. If you believe that the arrival of relief and the arrival of the POTUS to New Orleans and other Gulf Coast cities was a wonderful coincidence, then, to put it bluntly, you are stupid. And that is why you are finally going to help us. Because now, it’s a matter of, if you don’t, you won’t just look like government shills, you will look, stupid. You would be an embarassment to your profession, and let me tell you, the job market is tough these days.
It is now blatantly obvious that this administration had relief for hurricane victims held back until Bush arrived, so they could get their photo-op. There were reports here at DU last night of trucks being held up outside the city limits. I would say that evidence of this would prove a crime has been commited against the American people. Maybe many crimes. These aren’t Iraqi’s or Afgani people dying of dehydration these are Americans. If nothing else you should be furious that Rove would think you were so stupid that you would belive that this was just an amazing coincidence or all someone els's fault. Now get to work and help us remove these criminals from office before something worse happens. Thank you for your time.

1. I swear, if it's the last thing that I do YOU ALL WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE
You have betrayed the American people! You were our last line of defense against this evil regime. You have not fulfilled your Constitutional obligation to defend and protect us! Do your jobs or move on over...

Your cowardly and treasonous behavior is unforgivable. You have no shame.


Peace.

2. No offense, but....
Do you really believe you can threaten the media and get any results? Also, most threats work better if you give a reasonable and logic recourse if they are not carried out. I am not involved in the media but "I'm not f&#*ing around" doesn't really scare me unless you give me a reason for it to.

3. Some of them.. yes.

Look at Cafferty, or Shepard Smith. Tim Russert. Joe Scarborough. All hard cores, all turned. People are turning, and they are doing it because they know this one is not going to go away.

Would help if I wasn't alone...

5. We're building a consensus.
There's been alot of those "gotcha" moments that just haven't panned out. You can't help but be critical of these MSM types.

They can turn on you in a heartbeat.

I hope you're right, and this remains a positive trend.
