CBS's Bob Schieffer is latest "journalist" to accuse Democrats and moderate Republicans of treason
by John in DC - 1/22/2006 01:15:00 PM


You see, according to CBS and NBC, the majority of Americans who have a problem with how Bush is handling the war in Iraq are actually borrowing a page from Osama bin Laden.

We think like bin Laden, according to CBS and NBC.

We talk like bin Laden, according to CBS and NBC.

So I suppose it must logically follow that we act like bin Laden, according to CBS and NBC.

Enough is enough. It's one thing for FOX News and other Republican surrogates to accuse Democrats and Moderate Republicans of treason simply because we actually believe in our democracy, in what the Constitution says, and what the flag stands for. But it's quite another for "real" media like NBC and CBS to start accusing the majority of Americans of treason during war time.

4. bushco and their cronies may 'own' most of the MSM media......
outlets, but the voices of many people will NOT be silenced. The NEOCONS believe anyone that is NOT lock step with their values and ideas is a terrorist. bushco minded politicians have helped to create this current world disaster and hatred over many decades. Let the NEOCONS continue to spew their venom while the rest of us look for solutions to bring peace to this entire planet.

5. We're not fooled by Schieffer's posturing..........
Edited on Sun Jan-22-06 02:52 PM by CrownPrinceBandar
and neither is the majority of the folks in this country, if opinion polls serve as any indicator. The media is complicit in the lies being promulgated by BushCo right now. They have followed the administration through every elaborate pirouette of deception and untruth, and wholeheartedly cheered them on beckoning for encore after encore.

I wouldn't wait for the media to get on board with our cause, for they are lost. I agree with many around here that is it now OUR responsibility to make our own media, and shine the light of truth where ever needed.
