I do have an antenae out that seems to pick up info from the ether.
Then I route it through my heart - which filters out all the hypocrisy, hyperbole, BS ... and right wing corporate spin from mainstream media.
But that filter gets filled pretty quickly these days.
Beginin bout 30 years ago - with the rise of Newt Gingrich, Jerry Falwell, and NeoConservatism - Ive had change out the hypocrisy/BS filter nearly EVERY DAY!
Whereas prior to say 1978, I dint change the hypocrisy/BS filter but once a month.
Talk about it a lot? Slate, i watch fox...I flip from fox yo cnn to MSNBC, if i missed the a lot, it wasn't a lot and they were trying to spin it, saying it was not the same thing.
So ya think we have a "free press" eh? Check out who owns who, and who owns what you think.......

Ahh yes, more idiotic spewings by people who don't know a damned things about media and how news is gathjered, organized and disseminated.
As far as HAgee, at least McCain never called him a "mentor" or "like and Uncle," as Obama had of Wright. NOr did McCain attend the man's church for 20 years. He might not have for even a day.
When will Wright apologize? Hell, why should he. The old fool is laughing all the way to his deluxe mansion in the burbs. Moving on up! Moving on up! To a deluxe mansion, in the sky. Oh, He's moving on up! Moving on up! He finally got a piece of the Pie!!!
Of course a man who goes to church cause he's worshiping god is a novel idea lost on republicans. It's far better to worship the guy talking about his personal points of view. It's even better to not worship at all but simply pander and pretend merely to con voters into believing some falsehoods for political advantage. Yup! Nothing wrong with pretending to be something you may or may not agree with...if your McCain.
I know about all of this. They don't worry me none, the only thing i worry about is the people because the media is nothing without the people. They are starting to get that message. because as much as they held off on telling us that hill didn't win TX or her margin in PA was 9% which they choose to call points. The people went out the next week and voted. They like the Republicans are not in control of the American people anymore!
Shame on you for watching FOX Black! I stated that they did talk about it a lot, when the other poster said he hadn't seen it at all on CNN,,,,, but though what I said was correct you had to find a way to spin it as you claim FOX did,,,, Dat's funny
You need to watch Fox then, they've talked about it a lot. CNN isn't worth watching.
Actually, truth be tolt, NEITHER is worth watching.
I agree Goppy, FOX is just off the radar and CNN is all Hill all the time. MSNBC is the only place to find some semblance of news if even.
Actually, I get all my news from my heart.
I do have an antenae out that seems to pick up info from the ether.

Yep, Wright sure did. LMAO
Lips, I don't care how many times in a day you have a shower, stupidity will not was off.
When the owners of the news are also in league with shrub, the news is not liberal, get with the program you simpleton
Nope!
McCain never DID call him a mentor.
John McCain just sought his endorsement ... right after he heard John Hagee scream that CATHOLICS ARE W-HORES!
Of course a man who goes to church cause he's worshiping god is a novel idea lost on republicans. It's far better to worship the guy talking about his personal points of view.

Yeah I like how the right wing print media in Ca. decided to print the Hill's giant win yesterday on one of their back pages.
