Why do the dems listen the main stream media?

No matter what they do, EVERYTHING they do is wrong according to the MSM. The MSM is corporate and right wing. The only way to defeat a bully is to stand up to him. We need to make that our message over and over and over, again.

As long as they ALLOW the media (which is nothing but a parrot for the right wing) DEFINE the conversation, they are done.

Giving in to their slander just shows that they ARE weak.

The right wing has been lording it over them all week.

Basically,

What are the dems going to do?

They are LAUGHING at them. And, STILL the dems cower.

Any dem senator that doesn't realize that the key to regaining power lies in this fight. If they stop Alito, they CAN stop Bush & co.

If they don't, they will have surrendered into defeat. To a bunch of lying, sniveling, COWARDS - the dems have the truth. All they need to do is USE it.

1. Well we could do what the fundies did to NBC over 'Book of Daniel'.....
...tell them that we will not purchase their advertisers products. AND tell the advertisers that.

AND NOT patronize the advertisers. If it means going to local merchants and NOT going to Target or Wal-Mart, or Blockbuser etc.. I really don't mind paying a little more for groceries, etc.

I try only buy CITGO gas these days.

Then that is what we need to do.

Follow the money. It is the only thing we can do to influence corporate america. They only understand money.

Aside from armed inserruction (which would get us killed), I don't know what else to do.
