Now they fear us, not the pasty fat wing nuttery blogger "warrior" rePUKES. It took a long time but the wrath of the left caught up to the rePUKE "liberal media" whiners. We're stronger and we have a majority of the nation on our side. Keith has nothing to fear.

2. Ask Eric Alterman. . .
he's over at Media Matters now, since MSNBC.com fired him today.

6. Actually, can you imagine what he will report now that MSNBC
censors aren't breathing down his neck?

I've got a feeling that MSNBC will regret their decision...

3. It could all change with a catastrophic event, like a "new 9/11"

4. I really do think the tide is changing now.
The war is more unpopular than ever.

The media is beginning to not pull back, but actually flexes its muscles from time to time.

No matter what Bush does, his poll numbers are in permafrost, they barely budge, and if there's any bounce at all, they drop again quickly.

More and more people are beginning to speak up against the right wing media that censors the news.

Bush's finest hour has already passed him by, and his future is more of his past: failure.

7. We are definetely more powerful today than we were a few years ago
But the corporate run media and the whores in the WH and Congress , who work for them have the decision making capabilities we dont. Until we get those weve got work to do. ie Path to 911. They made the decisions , we could do no more than scream about the innacuracies. Work to do.

9. I would hope he'd take his willing staff and move to another network
I'm sure there are other nets, cable probably, that would carry him - he brings a lot of viewers.

11. Their ratings would plummet if they fired Olberman..........
Keith is propping up their network. What business would commit financial suicide like that?
