Chris Mathew's special about the tea-baggers...where was he when the progressives were a big

[rainy]

movement after G. W. Bush stole the election? The media missed our movement by a long shot. Bet they never thought WE could get a black democrat elected, but, that is exactly what we did. It was a landslide. Now a few righties make some noise and all of a sudden its a big movement and getting lots of attention. If we could have gotten one tenth of the attention that they get who knows.

In the trailer for Chris's show about the tea-baggers they allow one of them to state that "the president is a liar." Geeze, we were screaming that g w was lying all along about the war, Iraq, his service etc... You think this media would dare allow someone to say that Bush is a liar to promote a program?

None of them even get what they are doing do they?

1. For some reason, Matthews is revered by some among us

He's a sexist fuck-up and a corporatist tool who occasionally gets one right but who is, on balance, full of shit.

2. Damn! I thought the same thing about 5 mins. ago!!

Is he going to do the same for the rise of Progressivism? Or are we that boring?

4. Not boring just have the truth on our side. Sometimes the truth is not as exciting

as racism and stupidity.

3. Guess they're trying to squeeze the last few dimes out of this flash-in-the-pan movement. nt

5. Because he's a corporate media tool?

:shrug:

6. The anti-Iraq war protests were larger than the teabagging orgies,

yet Tweety thinks the latter is a movement. Well Tweety, it'a actually a bowel movement.

7. I get so tired of Matthews...........he talks out of both sides of his

mouth and never know which side he will tak on any given day. Don't forget he helped get Bush elected his second term.

8. The teabaggers and the media are owned by the same special interests.
