You dumb shits.

They scream about not trusting what you hear on television and radio while they are on television and radio... Are you people really that stupid? Faux has a larger audience than CNN or MSNBC...

Are you people fucking lemmings or what?

Please answer, I'll place flowers at your tombstone.

4. The audience is definately much more liberal than the media is.
Just look at the numbers lately. That's what happens when we let them define us and swift boat us. The minority gains power, as the masses are duped into voting against their best interests.

It's time for us to become the swift boaters, as distasteful and immoral as that is, because we need to take back the shining light on the hill. Someone blew the light out, and the world no longer sees anything but darkness on that hill.

6. They always whine about the the lack of "good news" reporting out of Iraq
All they have to do is quit wasting time whining about it and report the good news! Wonder why they don't?

8. Ummm if there was good new Bush would be all over specifics
and further spinning them into immense, incredible positives.

They're not.

Because there is little to no good news, other than Iraqi's dying (good news to Bush, not us).

11. Exactly. Well said. If there were good news, they would be like
bantam roosters about it.

15. They should try being a liberal in the US. They would collapse.
Edited on Sun Nov-20-05 03:57 AM by Marr
If you're a liberal in the US, you come to recognize the fact that your point of view is simply not allowed on television. I'm not talking about abortion or prayer in school or any of the other "acceptable" bullshit wedge issues- I mean the stuff that really matters- like labor laws, taxes, health care, real foreign policy discussions... all of it. You have to go to the foreign press.

Freepers would shit in their pants if they woke up tomorrow to the reality American liberals live in every day.

What would that world look like, I wonder...

No Fox News. Cable news would be dominated by a liberal news network with prominent anchors Michael Moore and Jeneane Garofalo. They would remind eveyone that their coverage is "fair and balanced".

The rest of the television news media would range from about Ed Schultz and Al Franken on the right, to Katrina VandenHeuvel on the left.

The Nation would be the "paper of record". The NYT would be considered a right-wing rag, and the Washington Times would be a fringe, subscription-only publication, mailed to a few hardcore right-wing true believers quarterly.

Vigo Mortenson would be president.
