Don't believe me? Just take a look at this list of Amazon.com best selling non-fiction new releases: http://www.amazon.com/gp/new-releases/books/53/ref=pd_nr_b_navhttp://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41ThJ66fhbL._SL160_PIsitb-sticker-arrow-dp,TopRight,12,-18_SH30_OU01_SL125_.jpghttp://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51acbWiAX%2BL._SL160_PIsitb-sticker-arrow-dp,TopRight,12,-18_SH30_OU01_SL125_.jpghttp://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51zC0wxyrGL._SL160_PIsitb-sticker-arrow-dp,TopRight,12,-18_SH30_OU01_SL125_.jpghttp://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31Q6DFDLonL._SL160_PIsitb-sticker-arrow-dp,TopRight,12,-18_SH30_OU01_SL125_.jpghttp://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/518iHb0tnBL._SL160_PIsitb-sticker-arrow-dp,TopRight,12,-18_SH30_OU01_SL125_.jpghttp://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51-vUc1zSRL._SL160_PIsitb-sticker-arrow-dp,TopRight,12,-18_SH30_OU01_SL125_.jpgNine, count them, NINE right wing anti-Obama hit pieces in the top 25 alone. (I know that there are only eight books here, but "Crimes Against Liberty" was counted twice, both paperback and hardback.) And you wonder why there's so much animosity against our president out there... And why some of it finds itself around here as well.

3. It's unreal! And Brian Lamb or someone books them on BookTV |
|
and plays their segments over and over and over again. The most transparent HACKS are treated as if they are real authors with real ideas. It's craziness.

During the Bush/Cheney admin the Lord of the Rings movies were being released. There's a line in there -- Galadriel is scrying in her pool for Frodo. She says something like: "The fate of your journey stands on the edge of a knife."
That's how I felt about our country under Bush/Cheney. All that we are, our fate, stood on the edge of a knife.
We still do. That's the Bush/Cheney/Neocon legacy, and it didn't just magically go poof when we had the great good fortune to elect Barack Obama. The RW will go on spewing vileness and lies.
We have to keep pushing back. Thanks for the reminder.

6. It's a machine. A corporate funded fear and hate machine. And the drones eat it up. |
