We have Wolfie, Candy, Tweety, Imus, Pig Boy etc... all whoring
7x24.

We know they are TOLD what to say, how to spin. The reality is they are OWNED like slaves to their Coporate owners.

Why do the corporations want to conitue to mislead and lie to America.?

Why don't corporations want us with a higher standard of living?

Why don't they like transparency in the WH?

WHy do they want a war to continue, based on lies?


These are the questions. The floor is yours.

4. I don't think they're afraid...
their corporate masters want more deregulation and more tax cuts and they know they won't get that from Democrats, so they'll do anything to keep the repukes in power.

14. yeah, they are inclined to be in favor of the master's policies
they are good house slaves, not field slaves.

Believe me, reporters in the field are in full revolt--But the gatekeepers won't let them through.

fines pending from the e.p.a. regarding pcvs in the water in new york state?

two reasons they'd likely support the administration in power.

10. GE TIme Warner Murdoch
are partners with the right wing cabal.

These partners are not afraid of anything because they deliver what their partners agreed to.

You might want to ask - why do the employees of these corporations whore?

15. Because, it's not about us. It's about them.
Noam Chomsky even said, if the public knew what the corporations were doing, in our name, we'd never stand for it. And that is why they don't want us to know the truth.

War is big business. From the first bullet, to the last flag draped coffin.

We can stop buying. And we can stop paying taxes. And then it all stops. We really do have control.

17. I quote "A Bug's Life":
Edited on Thu Sep-09-04 11:02 AM by HughBeaumont
You let one ant stand up to us, then they all might stand up! Those puny little ants outnumber us a hundred to one and if they ever figure that out there goes our way of life! It's not about getting food, it's about keeping those ants in line and that's why we're going back! Does anybody else wanna stay?

Corporations follow this ideology to a tee. Ideally, they want a plutocratic dictatorship, and if they could have a Securitate to enforce it, you damned better believe they would.
