Wake Up-Mainstream Media!

New York Times op-ed columnist David Brooks wrote a scathing but true article about the Press and their love relationship with Obama. This was in reference to Obama’s health care reform plan. He says: “They have their own cherry-picking pollsters, their own media and activist cocoon, their own plans to lavishly spend borrowed money to buy votes.”

Dana Bash from CNN says: “Democratic grumbling about President Obama is growing louder. One Democratic senator tells CNN congressional Democrats are “baffled,” and another senior Democratic source tells CNN members of the president’s own party are still “frustrated” that they’re not getting more specific direction from him on health care.”
From the WSJ: “The president’s inflexibility is having an interesting effect—on Democrats. The chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, Max Baucus (D., Mont.), believes he would attract Republican votes if the bill helped pay for the expanded health care by subjecting employer-provided health benefits to the same taxes imposed on individual plans. He has also complained that the president is “making it difficult” to get a bill through. Surely it says something about Mr. Obama’s partisanship that this complaint issues from the one Democratic leader committed to producing a bipartisan health-care bill.”

Maybe the people that own and run the MSM are realizing that they too, are among the “greedy rich” that Obama wants to take money from to appease the poor. Maybe they figured out that there are more poor than rich and it’s the votes that Obama and the Dems are after. My, my, my! Politics can sure obscure one’s view on reality, especially when one is an elitist liberal trying to create the false notion of an Utopian society! The first step in getting back to reality is to take a hard look at the oath these “journalists” took when they became what they think they are.
