I have a few words for the MSM:

I was fortunate enough today to go home for lunch, turn on the TV (it was already on MSNBC - last thing watched on that TV was KO last night) and got the full breaking story of the supposed "hack job" on Lieberbutt's website - it smelled fishy the minute I heard Norah open her mouth - however, I digress....what I did hear throughout this portion of the news today was "powerful left groups" "bloggers" "left wing bloggers"......

Okay - let's get some facts straight....The Internet is NOT owned by major corporations that repeatedly make huge donations to the GOP - it's basically free at the moment (except for your monthly access fee) so that leads me to believe that these "powerful left groups" "bloggers" "left wing bloggers" are basically:

THE VOICE OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE

If this wasn't the case - then how come all the right wing nut job bloggers out there haven't made this much of an impact? Probably because they actually may be the minority....my message to the MSM - Get over it and realize that we are not going away and can not be bought and sold like you!

Ahh, I feel better....

2. Fuck the Media

The MSM is the source of ALL OF IT.

The 50% who believe WMD are in Iraq.
The reason Dean lost the primary.
The "far left" label given to progressive moderates.
The support of Israel, the Iraq war, the war on drugs...

Fucking EVERYTHING. The sooner people stop watching this bullshit and start thinking for themselves, the better.

7. Even more than BushCo, the complicit corporate media is THE enemy.

The media and the fraud-made-easy-and-untraceable voting machines.
