Great name irony though on this thread. I agree with your post the only reason though that the media matters is because most Americans don't even have a damn clue what's happening to the supreme court or a dozen other things. One could blame them, but as Ted Kennedy so eloguently stated as he BEGGED the other senators to continue debate on Alito: they are worried about paying the heating bill, the doctor's bill, the war in Iraq and obviously aren't up to speed on the unitary executive and case law. But that doesn't meant they want their liberties trashed.

I don't think the America we have-even in many Red states represents what the people actually want. I think it's a fraud. And the media-the smiling hosts of the Today Show and everyone else present this happy "everything is all right" this is what you want, the Dems are foolish-trust your president-Howard Dean is crazy-Alito is already confirmed anyway-Al Queda will kill you! message day in and day out. It's the media stupid.

But without leaders that stand up and say so-and refuse to be spun and say it again and again and again and again oh and vote no and even risk oh my god a filibutster! on fascists when they can it won't matter.
