3. That's what I've been thinking for a long
time and see it evolving to that..how could it not unless one wants big brother in their future?

Without the corporatemedia there would have been no bushcoup..no war on Iraq.

Millions of people charging cnn in Atlanta.

4. It is downright laughable. And sad. CNN devoted tons of time to Teapartiers once again
last night. It is a joke.

5. I'm trying to figure out why they are trying so hard to where it has become obvious?
They must really want to keep their tax cuts.

That and everything else that the corporate world wants
and that is in limbo as of now. Why do they hate America?
