60. Dean's a smart guy but #3 is wrong. Not "outrage," rather "instructions"
The CM (Corporate Media) needs to get the word from their masters that it's time to open the flood gates. I'd like to think that the Washington Post was just plain heroic but there is more to it than that. Katherine Graham had very strong ties, well known, to the financial establishment and intelligence community. Part of Watergate was supported by journalistic integrity but that was only "allowed" by approval from "management."

Our media (unlike the 70's) that are incapable of outrage. However, they can follow "instructions." When the stories start to get major play, you'll know that the "instructions" have been issues. Conyers, a brave and honest man, has outlined more than enough to toss * out. All the press has to do is cover it. They won't until the "powers that be" decide * is to much of a danger, embarrassment, and impediment. One factor was mentioned on Thom Hartmann today. A very recent marketing survey showed purchases of US goods in Europe are down by 20% and those who are not buying American are doing so in protest of our lousy president. If this stays, watch for interesting "instructions."

Our republic, saved by European consumers. Oh yeah! You gotta love it.
