		<description><![CDATA[I would mourn the disintegration of the main stream media, if it weren&#039;t for the fact they haven&#039;t been doing their job for twenty years or more -- practically since the Nixon scandals, when their takeaway meme was not &quot;Attack corruption,&quot; which I, and most citizens, could get behind, but &quot;Attack Republicans,&quot; which a third of the electorate finds unfair and offensive.

In no particular order, the MSM has ignored, denied, derided or otherwise covered up:

1.  Rathergate, where the MSM glommed on to a blatant forgery concocted by a rabid anti-Bush activist and defended it to the last ditch.
2.  Fast and Furious.  This underhanded assault on a neighboring friendly nation has never been acknowledged by the MSM, who profess to be amazed that the Republicans are persecuting Eric Holder.
3.  Solyndra.  The fact that the Obama administration shoveled money into this technological loser while telling them to delay layoffs till the deed was done has been soft-pedaled to the point that it is usually necessary to go thirty paragraphs into the story before it is mentioned.  It probably wouldn&#039;t be mentioned at all except that Solyndra went publicly and embarrassingly belly-up.
4.  GM bailout.  Contrary to two centuries of statute and common law, the Obama administration extinguished the interest of the stockholders (to be expected, since this was a bankruptcy) and the bondholders -- who by law and custom, get whatever value remains in the corpus of a bankrupt.  A case could be made that the bondholders should share with the retirement fund of the UAW, I suppose.  Instead, the UAW got the whole shmeer and the bondholders got the shaft.

There are plenty more examples.  Here in Atlanta,  the Atlanta Journal-Constitution assiduously covered for Mayor Bill Campbell, a corrupt, nasty incompetent whose sole asset was a deck of 52 race cards.  They backed him through two terms, then when he was out of office, convicted of tax evasion and disbarred, they claimed &quot;We warned you!&quot;  But they didn&#039;t.

Bye-bye, big media.  Don&#039;t let the door hit your ass on the way out.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here&#039;s a new word for all you leftist nutjobs out there that describes Obozo&#039;s tenure and his &quot;fundamental transformation of America&quot; quite well...

Ineptocracy - (in-ep-toc&#039;-ra-cy) -- A system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

There&#039;s a lot in that definition, my leftist nutjob friends. Keep reading it. You may actually understand it at some point. 

Have a nice day!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bozo I laugh a lot especially at Romney&#039;s speeches  or singing fests, espeically when he tells us how he sloved the auto industry problems. I thought you ring wingers don&#039;t like when someone makes fun of religious things. I would laugh at your list if it weren&#039;t so lame. By the way why hide behind a alias?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;d like to be as sentimental about the demise of the print press as you, but honestly I cannot. I spent enough time in the news business to learn to read upside down and backwards and fondly remember the clattering noise of linotype machines. As production methods have changed requiring less personnel, it seems to have also infected the newsroom, too. I live on the other side of the Ohio line in NW Penna. One year ago I discovered that two of our local state legislators belong to the lobbying group A.L.E.C. and after reading a piece about the group in The Nation magazine wanted to alert my local media. I called 3 television station news directors and 2 political reporters for the areas largest daily, plus smaller news outlets in the area. I&#039;ve been tweeting, e-mailing and posting comments now for months and Crickets from the media. During this time Marcellus legislation has been passed along with Voter I.D. laws and many other A.L.E.C. initiatives. ]]></description>

Come on show me something worthwhile instead of your usual &quot;he/she is an idiot&quot; statements you make. Admit it you hate Obama, why, is it because he&#039;s black or educated or successful or all three. What have you ever achieved in your hateful myopic world.]]></description>
