5. I figured out that everything has to be checked with the "Politboro Censors" before they talk about
it. CNN suffers from the same syndrome except when the Pentagon has to get "Why we should Bomb Iran" news out. Then it's "hot stuff" on CNN..the WAR Channel.

Notice how, once Obama got the delegates to be Nominee they "pulled the plug" and are now going into their "Gore/Kerry" can't win mode. All the smears and slants. The number of RW Repugs and Centrist Pugs going up against a DLC Democrat. The Repugs get all the air time and the Dem who is usually a weak spokesperson gets a few seconds to try to reply.

We've been there and done that so many times and yet election after election the MSM censors more and we Dems keep fading in coverage. It's really disgusting. I had to go into my "Turn it All Off Mode" once again. I wonder why I pay for cable these days. :shrug: I should have given it up long ago...I'm just a junkie. But, it's really hard to see all this still going on when so many of us on the left have tried to counter the distorted coverage. I guess some of us keep hoping...but it's futile.
