VIDEO- CNN Says ALITO is a done deal-HUH?

[liveoaktx]

I resent it when "news" people talk about an event as if it's in the past-the vote ... is... next.... week

1. And This Surprises You?

The democrats couldn't agree on a sandwich, let alone a fillibuster. Our leadership is either corrupt, i.e repub, or else weak, i.e. democrat.

2. I don't see that this has anything to do with Democrats at this point

but rather, whether media acts at all responsibly.

3. NO they don't

We can still call our reps and try to prevent this. The media is trying to convince us that it is all over with and we should just give up trying. Influencing the outcome.

6. You say that just like the media tells you to.

The Republicans are no more cohesive a unit overall than then Democrats are but one myth serves the corporate media interest better and so this is what is told and retold.

I wasn't surprised to see them declaring it over either but when considering the message I look first to see who is holding the whip over the messenger.

4. Dean was on CNN earlier today, said it wasn't a done deal.

Depends on who to believe. I don't know myself.

5. CNN=Contains No News

They are trying to go farther right than Pox, trying to steal viewers. They haven't noticed that Pox has already lost 40%+ of its viewers. Take anything they say with a pound of salt.

7. I'll see your pound and raise you a pillar

CNN has been bleeding the patient to near death for years now and these last two weeks they completely pulled the plug. No more news for us. Just propaganda courtesy of Rush's mistress and her new cohorts and minions.
