Isn't it a shame we don't have news media (sm)


Posted: Jan 15, 2014

in this country to report on the corruption and lies going on in this administration?  We have to read about it at an overseas source or Fox.  Where is our media?  As Mark Levin says, we are witnessing a quiet coup.  Too bad most of the people are too stupid to see it.  Still wining and dining on the Kool-Aid.

It must be some kind of conspiracy - for sure

... that absolutely no media sources report this alleged corruption. Not one, except for Fox or overseas.

Do you think they do it via conference call? Or maybe a group twitter thing?

And all media sources reported so well and thoroughly on the corruption of the previous Republican administrations, Bush, Reagan, and Nixon.

Oh, and they even reported the Clinton impeachment...

but no Obama corruption? What's up with that?

If you believe those stories spoon fed to you by the administration, I can't help you with facts. It's too late. Brain cells are gone. I'm sorry.

I think our media - old and burned out

The mainstream media are not doing a good job of investigative reporting regardless of which party is in office.

Get your facts straight - THE ENTIRE INTELLIGENCE - COMMUNITY WAS TALKING ABOUT WMDs in Iraq

[ In Reply To ..]
and IRAQ admited to having them and burying them in the desert. you're entitled to you opinion, not you own set of facts.

If you bothered to actually do any research, you would know that the entire UN acknowledged Iraq's WMDs...the UN hearings were all over CSPAN for hours. But if you spent any time on educating yourself, you would hv already known tt.

That is simply not true - old and burned out

[ In Reply To ..]
UN inspectors asked for more time because they had found nothing. If we'd given them more time we could have avoided a costly, immoral, illegal war. The intelligence community also said there was no yellow cake purchased from Nigeria.

People have done research - sm

[ In Reply To ..]
It's easily researched but below is a link to a fine essay.

Please link me to where the WMDs were found in the desert. Condi and them were all holding mushroom clouds over our heads when, in **fact**, none have been found **nor** admitted to.

If they were buried in the desert, there is all kinds of technology out there that could find them. Again, link me an article that says where they are and why, in heavens name, weren't they dug up and dismantled? They must still be there, right?

In the meantime, enjoy this read:

You are the one who is trying to rewrite history here. sm - VTMT

[ In Reply To ..]
You are wrong. WMDs were never found by the inspectors. They were not even finished inspecting when the UN was advised to get them out or the US would not guarantee their safety in case of a preemptive attack. Colin Powell was mislead by the Bush/Cheney intelligence team and addressed the UN in good faith, mortified when he found out the truth. Are you serious when you said Iraq admitted having WMDs? Never happened. You are dead wrong on all accounts.
Blah, blaH blah nothing but LIB SPIN AND TALKING POINTS - SPEAKING OF REWRITING HISTORY

This Benghazi tragedy has had my attention from the beginning. I NEVER liked the explanations we were given by this administration. I HATED hearing people testify that pleas had been made for assistance or backup and were ignored. I am DISGUSTED that BO, HC, et al, have wanted to make this be a nonissue and try to project feigned interest or worry onto something else. Everyone seems to forget how America was admired, respected and revered not too long ago. Remember "Peace through Strength" and "Glastnost"? I want that America back.

peace through strength - hadrian

[ In Reply To ..]
The phrase and concept date to ancient times. Roman Emperor Hadrian (76-138 AD) said that he sought "peace through strength, or failing that peace through threat." Hadrian's Wall was a symbol of this policy.

I'm not going near glasnost.

Great post - unfortunately Commie ideologues - invested so much in BO and HC

[ In Reply To ..]
The truth means nothing to them...even when it means innocent lives at the hands of this completely incompetent regime. Only things that Libs on this board are consistent about is their total lack of objectivity and complete messianic worship of the biggest loser in presidential history - Barack HUSSAIN Obama.

you're talking commie idealogues - with a person who misses glasnost?

[ In Reply To ..]
too funny
This is only my 2nd post. - NPC
[ In Reply To ..]
I'm probably doing this backwards, but I haven't been back on since I posted earlier about peace through strength and glasnost. Yes, glasnost. Openness and transparency, two ideas floated by BO during his elections. Where's the transparency? Okay, now I will go back and read all these other posts before they are taken down, which they undoubtedly will be because they look pretty heated.
Okay, my 3rd post now. - NPC
[ In Reply To ..]
Call me a commie idealogue if you must, but just realize that that is one of the most ignorant statements made by anyone on this thread. Have you really no idea what Reagan and Gorbachev achieved together?
NPC, I wasn't even responding to you - sm

I was responding to the post above. Oh boy.
Please accept my apology. - NPC

It looks like I also got a little worked up.

[ In Reply To ..]
...You referred to me by stating "talking commie ideologues with a person who misses glasnost." I am that person who misses that openness and transparency. So, sorry, but I withdraw my apology.

It's interesting this mantra is repeated over and over, but no facts or evidence - is cited

[ In Reply To ..]
Empty rhetoric. It means nothing.

You are aware, aren't you,that Congress withheld funds already designated to protecting - overseas embassies?

[ In Reply To ..]
Of course, we'll never know if it would have made a difference. Pleas for assistance in letting go of money already designated for embassy protection, should have been granted. Sometimes one must dig a little deeper to find the real reason things don't go like they should.

You are aware aren't you, that the State Dept. - blocked the disbursement...Geez, READ, READ, READ

Something besides your talking points.
sounds like you are repeating GOP talking points - sm

punditry vs journalism - NK

[ In Reply To ..]
There's a difference. The days of journalists sitting behind a desk and reporting the news without interjecting opinions are long gone. If someone wanted to offer an opinion, it was billed as an editorial with a disclaimer before and following and usually done by an executive of that TV station. We are left with pundits on cable "news" channels offering opinions rather than reporting the news. People by human nature seek out pundits of like ideology in order to validate their own opinions. Newspaper editorials and blogs are opinions and not news. Tabloids such as the Daily Mail and the New York Post are just that, tabloids. It used to be called yellow journalism, sensationalism of whatever tidbit might increase sales. Just because you read it or listen to it and agree with it does not make it news or truth.

Curious... - NPC

[ In Reply To ..]
Are you saying these reports about the administration knowing this information are not truthful?

Not at all - NK

[ In Reply To ..]
I wasn't offering an opinion on the link. I'm simply saying that sometimes it's good to judge a book by its cover and that every source one uses should be thoroughly vetted. It's always good to hear both sides of a story before making up one's mind as to the veracity of it.

I think it's a bigger shame that so many people think - tabloid media = journalism

[ In Reply To ..]

Not to mention those who think partisan blogs = journalism. - js (NM)

helpful hint - constructive criticism

[ In Reply To ..]
Perhaps your posts would be taken more seriously if you didn't constantly suggest that those who think differently than you are "wining and dining on Kool-Aid." It sets a hostile tone and doesn't invite a discussion.

not to mention calling people stupid if they don't - call it a coup
