“Double-Crossers, Cross-Dressers & Cross-Bashers”

This would be a super great title for any future book about the Obama regime!

(For more Obamania, Yahoo “Obama Avoids Bible Verses,” “Obama Supports Public Depravity” and “David Letterman’s Hate, Etc.”)

I watched the MFM over the weekend. It was amazing. Thanks to the samizdat internet, I know something of the complete story (also available from traditional sources, but you have to DIG) on several issues.

But in MFM-land, Nothing Is Wrong! Why, our telegenic, genial, ultra-reasonable Young President is trying hard to fix all the bad things that those rich-worshipping racist Republicans left us with. And those redneck ignoramuses are just trying to hurt him, to hurt our country!

That’s how it goes, in MFM-land. I feel like I Ate the Mushroom.

I can’t imagine a career where your job is to make some riots look like parades and some parades to look like riots. It is the very definition of what a propogandist does.

The only press reaction to their poor treatment will be an even more desperate desire to please the One. “He’s mad at us because we aren’t doing ENOUGH for him! If we just try HARDER he’ll smile again!”

The press has been nothing but press release flacks for Obama since he started campaigning for the Presidency. The odd thing is, I thought they knew this. Apparently these moron reporters actually think that they are real reporters, perhaps seeing themselves as Woodward and Bernstein types, and now that they want to play “real reporter” they are confused as to why they are not treated as such. This is what is surprising. That they only now are figuring out that they are public relations people and not reporters. Apparently they had thought their previous work was “reporting” instead that propaganda spreading that it actually was.

Yes, they must be very upset now. They’re so stupid. I stopped reading most MSM after the ’08 primary. I am surprised that they saw themselves as reporters. I thought they were just craven media creeps who drank the kool aid. Fools.

How often have you heard that cops hate to go on domestic disturbance calls because if, while trying to handcuff a man who was beating his woman, they turn their back on her, she is likely to try to stick a kitchen knife between their ribs?

The media whores will never leave Obama and they will always close ranks to defend him. You will see it this election cycle and you will see it again in 2012. Sadly for them, as time passes, what they are selling is no longer quite as enticing as it once was.

Yea Nolanimrod. The “But he really loves me” is true, but Obama in his way says, “You’re an old washed out whore, and NO ONE will take you if I LEAVE YOU.” also applies.
Where do they go? Who do they admit they’re wrong to, if even themselves. They see their media dominance fading, possibly taking their careers with it. Newspapers failing, News outlets ALL sinking, EXCEPT FOX!!!
I think the media whores are terrified. And they haven’t a pair, the cowards. Will they turn on their abusive husband? ONLY IF THEY TOO HAVE A LIBERAL- CONSERVATIVE CONVERSION. One can only hope for a figurative “Burning Bed” scenario.

Let’s not neglect our own reactions to all this. We keep expecting the mainstream journalists to change, to wake up, to realize they’ve been had.

That’s not quite the same as those journalists waiting endlessly for Obama to be the president they always wanted him to be. But we, like they, are waiting for someone else’s behavior to change based on what we see (and which we think they ought to see).

I wouldn’t hold my breath. After all, a mind is a difficult thing to change.

What makes me hopeful is that, as the mainstream media becomes less and less relevant, ordinary citizens are taking up the slack and becoming amateur journalists themselves. How long will it be before fewer people watch CBS News than watch PJTV?

It’s up to us, people. The newspapers and TV anchors have made it abundantly clear that they won’t do it for us, even though it’s their job.
