If the Republicans didn't own the media, they'd be swinging from trees. |

If the republicans didn't own the media...
...but since the republicans own the media, you never hear about...
You'd think that that would be enough to get someone fired. But since the republicans own the media...
News helicopters should be circling above the trucks with relief ice that have been redirected by FEMA to Maine, but since the republicans own the media....
Even Ann Coulter said "...and we own the media now".
And the republicans, who own the media, say that...
This is the meme we should be pushing in every conversation, email and message. It should become reflexive, and it should be used BEFORE a rightard pulls the "liberal media" lie. It is easily defended by simply relating who own the media (Time/Warner, General Electric, Viacom, Sinclair, Clear Channel etc...).
This meme has been ignored by too many of us. It MUST be placed in heavy rotation. It can even be a non-sequiter, just as long as it is said, and said FIRST!

Using the word Republican is important. Makes it more personal to pissed repukes. I have been reading your posts, BLM. This must now become a reflexive statement dropped in to every conversation by ALL of us as often as possible. It sould be said twice for evey mention of "liberal media" made in the US everyday. It sould be said as often as "how ya doin'". The more it is said, the more it sinks in to the hardheads we are trying to turn. The more hardheads get to thinking about the republican owned media, the more crazy the freep-types will seem to them. There is a huge segment of the population of those that don't vote, don't pay attention. There are also those who blather "they do the same things" and "there's no difference". These are the hardheads. They must be turned. Even if they just start blathering "republican-owned media", it's some sort of help.

At least, that's how our founding fathers would have handled them.
