Interesting Day to Do Some Media Watching... The way it's going, we might have a chance!by Mister MandM

I got a chance to watch a few of the news programs this afternoon and it was interesting to see how the coverage of the tea parties came down. Very little mention on any of the major networks or even cable news. There was some cursory mention on CNBC which I watch for market info, but for the most part the whole party was basically ignored by all except Fox News.
It was interesting though to watch clips of some of the liberal journalists on the web out interviewing in the crowds trying to downplay the real intentions or purpose for the event. All of them were touting really trite and stupid stuff for the most part. It was kind of funny watching them bait the crowd to their intentions.
And then there are the dumb administration dips spewing Obama's bull about not being aware of any of this. It's macho/mega-elitist and the ultimate in arrogance to imply you are not even aware of what millions are thinking just because it doesn't figure into your message. Could he/they have been lying?
I find it interesting that they promised a policy of openness and transparency but deliver only what anyone off the cool aid and with half a brain could possibly believe! Could the administration think that anyone is buying any of that? If they keep up the lying and layering on the bull like this, one could only be optimistic about a chance for real change in the near future!
With clones like Janet Napolitano, Geithner and all the other pals and tax cheats that seem to be in His favor; not to mention the slugs that are now in the Congress... how hard could it be to get some momentum from this? It is now apparent the real issue is that our entire federal government is out of touch with what the people they work for really want or need. More of the truth and less of them... meaning BIG, BIASED AND ADULTERATED government!
I also think the more the citizens see this type of stuff, the more of us might just get it! Perhaps, if the socialists haven't created too many citizens on the government dole that are addicted to the few of us left that pay the bills, and the neo-cons continue to fade away, we might be up to electing real representation the next time.
