Media revulsion over Tea Parties shows need for overhaul
"Who raised these eternal adolescents?"
Alas, reporting the facts was not CNN's mission. ...
Perfectly akin to candidate Barack Obama's exchange with now-famous Joe the Plumber, these liberal Statists, who see government as more loving than God, more able than Superman and more necessary than drinking water,
And I think they may be about to get it from the folks they most hate - genuine American patriots." "MSM's Tea Party Cognitive Dissonance," by Kyle-Anne Shriver
- (American Thinker): "In all my years of watching news coverage in America, I don't believe I have ever witnessed more condescending, amateurish, purely politicized reporting than what just transpired among the liberal MSM covering America's Tax Day Tea Parties. The Tea Parties represented a very significant news event.
Whenever close to 300,000 middle-class Americans put their productive lives on hold on a midweek workday, make original signs with their own hands, and travel miles and miles to stand with other private citizens just to demonstrate their anger with government, in more than 300 cities from coast to coast and everywhere in between, that's NEWS.
Note to MSM: This is why you're going broke.
- Yet, many local newspapers - even the Boston Globe for crying out loud! - pettily refused
- to even cover their local protests.
- derision, mockery and elitist condescension.
- The puerile, vulgar humor of MSNBC's Rachel Maddow and CNN's Anderson Cooper,
Yet, apparently, these two don't even have enough good sense left to be ashamed of themselves.
- Who raised these eternal adolescents?
- One Susan Roesgen approached an all-American male, holding his toddler son in the crowd of protesters, asking an open-ended question, "Why are you here?" This gentleman proceeded to try to explain his frustration with Obama, citing Lincoln's valiant stand for liberty,
- If the CNN woman had been more of a reporter and less of a shill for Obama, then
- Americans paying millions into their Blago-genic political system, via the Democrat trio of do-gooding tyrants, Pelosi, Reid & Obama. She might have understood that the Tax Day Tea Parties were more about liberty than about taxes, more about the Democrats' profligacy and waste than about paying one's fair share for the real purposes of federal government as specifically outlined by the U.S. Constitution.
- This on-air "interview" was quite enlightening on another measure, however. It perfectly illuminated the sheer cognitive dissonance among the lion's share of our too-disgraceful-for-words MSM.
- simply have no genuine understanding of liberty or the individual spirit that kindles and keeps its fires burning from generation to generation.
- Our media have convinced themselves -- as has the entire Democratic Party cabal of power-wielders now in charge --
- that the November election really was a landslide of historic proportions (which it certainly was not),
- that the "change" moderates really wanted was what they are now getting (out-of-control profligate spending),
- Many posed the questions, during their Tea Party coverage, "Why all this anger now? Why are these people protesting now, when they weren't out in the streets during GW's eight years?"
- We are not getting paid to protest, unlike the anti-war and anti-poverty protesters our media covers in never-ending flurries of fury.
- We don't get federal tax dollars to protest, as does ACORN, and
- we have no sugar-daddy like Soros paying us stipends to lend a deceitful public-protest face
We're the productive class, the vast middle. We're busy living our own lives, busy building the businesses and earning our livings, busy raising our children and doing the host of volunteer services that infuse life into our Churches, Synagogues and civic organizations.
Much of the anger now boiling over in protest has been building for the past 20 years, since the end of Ronald Reagan's presidential tenure. Much of it is aimed at Republicans, not just Democrats. And it goes to the heart of the size, scope and fundamental duties of the federal government as enumerated by our U.S. Constitution.
- We're the citizens doing the lion's share of those things which have made America the great and exceptional Nation she has been for the past 2-1/3 centuries.
- This mounting anger, aimed at the tyranny of a federal government -- completely off-the-rails of its Constitutionally-framed limited scope and power --
- may be surfacing now due to a tipping in the fragile balance that was upheld during the G.W. Bush presidency.
- One thing and one thing only, in my opinion. As long as the federal government is doing the one job of protecting our national security and standing up for us in the face of the world's sleights, we will take a great deal of folderol from our elected officials. We will suffer the profligate spending and invasions on our personal freedoms when we - at the very least - believe our leaders are stridently bent on protecting our interests and our children from harm.
- that guarantees serfdom for the productive class,
- he has bowed, scraped, fawned and apologized his way across the entire continent of Europe.
He has planned huge and irresponsible cuts in our defense spending, promised to do away with missile defense systems and heralded the day he will disarm our nuclear arsenal, so as to set a nice example for the resurgent Russian Bear.
So, when our liberal MSM confronts middle America, now on the march, and demands to know what there is not to like about this new Administration,
- Obama has obsequiously bowed to the Saudi King, some of whose own subjects blew more than 3,000 of our fellow Americans to kingdom come a mere 7 years ago.
- He has welcomed Castro, Chavez, Ortega, Ahmadinejad and Hamas with open arms,
- salivating grins and friendly warmth, while dissing our heretofore friends and allies,
- even making a rude point of telling Israel's PM, Netanyahu, that there will be no face-to-face meeting with him next month in D.C.
- they demonstrate the most out-of-touch elitism ever to disgrace
- American media.
- Never in the history of this grand Republic of ours, has a group so demanded massive intervention
