AMERICAN MEDIA TODAY...IS EVEN CLARK KENT STARTING TO GET JADED?

For the vast majority of the Mainstream Propaganda Ministry Media, business goes on as usual. You know, ignore thousands of people involved in hundreds of Tea Party protests against the “stimulus” bills in cities all across the nation so that you can do a heart-warming report on the 97-year-old man who finally got his GED. Fail to report a few dozen more corrupt wanna-be Obama administration flunkies bailing out due to all the illegal, immoral and crooked dealings in their past bubbling to the surface to make time for a three-part special called “Iran-Contra…the Bitter Legacy Lives On”. Throw a hissy fit about Sarah Palin’s “ethics violations” for wearing an Artic Cat jacket at a public event in Alaska but still never even admit to there being any questions about Obama’s birth place.

This age-old tradition of the Ministry of Truth would seem, at last, to be starting to crumble around the edges. Network TV ratings are sinking ever lower while, all across the nation, liberal rags masquerading as “news”papers are dropping like flies.

“We don’t understand it,” said a spokesperson for the Philadelphia Daily Betrayer. “Those ignorant gun-toting Bible-thumping hillbillies out there in Fly Over Country should be buying more of our papers than ever. How else are we ever going to enlighten those witless inbred savages to the glories of socialism, abortion, atheism, and gun control?”

Not to worry! Senator Benjamin Cardin, a Maryland Democrat, has proposed a bill to allow newspapers to operated as tax-exempt non-profit organizations. Like churches. So the sheeple can continue to worship at the alter of liberal propaganda, I guess.

According to Cardin, "As local papers are closing, we're losing a valuable tradition in America -- critically important to our communities, critically important to our democracy." From his pit in Hell, the ghost of Joe Stalin added, “Nationalize the media! Great idea, Comrade!” but Joseph Goebbels, in the pit next door, protested, “Nein! You are stealing from der Fuhrer's playbook!”

As all this transpires, a tiny handful of intrepid muckrakers are starting to figure out the Obama Regime just might not be all sweetness and light. At recent press conferences, we’re starting to see a pattern. The old-school “journalists” who might actually ask a serious question now and then are being ignored and snubbed so that the Big 0 can field staged softball questions…even softer than the ones the Mainstream tossed him during the campaign…from deep, incisive publications like People Magazine and Redbook. “Lord Barack, is it true that you love puppies and children?”

Thankfully, a few of the troops are thinking about breaking ranks as the small handful of media hacks whose brains still function actually become somewhat inquisitive about things. Of course, these are things you won’t hit the CBS Evening News with Commie Couric anytime soon, but they’re a start.

Not that the European Union is anything we’d want to emulate, but even they are finding fault with the Obama Regime and its antics, so much so that AP even reported it briefly. At a summit meeting in Strasbourg, France, Czech Prime Minister Mirek Topolanek said of Obama’s plan, "…all of these steps, these combinations and permanency is the road to hell."


The Canadians have a few words to say, too. Americans Largely Silent as Their Nation is Systematically Destroyed: "Incompetent Evil in Charge
The same people responsible for the many disasters now surrounding every American household, were elected in 2006 and 2008 to fix what they broke. Instead of reversing course and placing their faith in the principles of freedom, they are installing more of the same failed entitlement policies that created the problem and they are doing so at a fever pace."

No! Say it ain't so! CNN?!?!? "Even though he was almost a member of the new Obama administration, New Hampshire Republican Judd Gregg Sunday slammed President Obama’s approach to handling the country’s fiscal outlook. 'The practical implications of this is bankruptcy for the United States,” Gregg said of the Obama’s administration’s recently released budget blueprint. “There’s no other way around it.'"

Oh my God! Can it really be true? Friendly fire from the “Bush is Hitler Chimp” New York Times?!?!? Paul Krugman: “The zombie ideas have won. The Obama administration is now completely wedded to the idea that there’s nothing fundamentally wrong with the financial system — that what we’re facing is the equivalent of a run on an essentially sound bank.”

Even that overstuffed creature Maureen Dowd is starting to sound like Ronald Reagan: "It’s a time in America’s history where we need less smooth jazz and more martial brass.”

The NY Daily News is even starting to figure out that our entire Federal government is crooked as a dog’s hind leg. "Everybody makes mistakes, and I made a beaut the other day. I was wrong to call members of Congress blow-hards and buffoons and declare them worse than useless.I was too kind.I should have said our representatives are gangsters in pinstripes and pearls. They are petty tyrants and the more power they grab, the more at risk we are. Homeland Security should flash Code Red any time this Congress is in session."

Over at Newsmax, former Mafia Kingpin Michael Franzese agrees with the gangster analogy. He is comparing Obama and his Congressional minions' nationalization plan, quite accurately, to the operating methods of the Mob:

"Twenty years ago, I would have applauded the government’s move to control the AIG bigwigs. When I was doing business for the Colombo Crime Family, I would often "bail out" a failing company. When the boss had nowhere to go, when no legit lender would lend him a dime, or when his suppliers were threatening to throw him into bankruptcy, he came to me. Mob guys looked for business opportunities like this every day. Great way for us to own a business.

Once the owner took my money, or used my name, I owned him. He wasn’t about to get a pay hike when he owed me money. He wasn’t buying a new car or taking any paid vacations either. I didn’t care how hard he worked. And if he didn’t toe the line, I would throw him out and take the company over."

Sound familiar?

We still have a long way to go, but a few people are finally starting to shine the light around and the cockroaches are scattering in every direction. Without talk radio, the Internet, and other alternate news sources, though, I have no doubt we would all still be sitting quietly in the dark listening to the soothing voices telling us, "All is well. I am the Great & Powerful Oz. Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain."
