Why is anyone surprised at what the Antiamerican Broadcasting Corporation would say or interested at all?

Are we really surprised? Control of the media are goals 20 and 21 of the communists. Don't believe me? Read it here:http://www.uhuh.com/nwo/communism/comgoals.htmBTW, Obama gave them goal #2 and is working on goal #3.

Well. Today's anti-USAToday, lapdog mouthpiece for its special interest owners, says 61% of Americans strongly oppose restraining bargaining rights for public employees. There you have it, people. We have become a COMMUNIST nation, ruled by labor unions including those who WORK FOR US! The graft, corruption, and now the extortion of our paychecks out of our hands to fund these leeches has never been more apparent. Are you Americans or are you victims? Choose now. Chicago just made theirs. IT'S PAST TIME TO TAKE OUT THE TRASH.

Bruce - have to look at that poll source - left leaning.The more respectable poll, Rasmussen, has the public behind the Wisconsin Gov by a large margin.

Brian-Thanks for the link to the "Communist Goals." In addition to goals #20 and 21 (control of the news and entertainment media) having been fulfilled, I'd say that Obama's election shows that they've got #15 (control of a major American political party) pretty well in hand, too.

The "Communist Goals" aren't anything an actual Communist ever wrote, but they are taken from "The Naked Communist", a 1958 book by Cleon Skousen. He was a conservative Morman and John Birch Society member.

Just wondering where the deserting democratic congressmen from WI and IN are getting the money to stay in posh IL hotels/resorts? Are they dipping into campaign funds, taking contributions from their supporters, or are the unions just paying for them outright?

"journalism" was considered one of those squishy degrees that the less mentally endowed would pursue when I was in college. Along with english, history, philosophy and such. these graduates essentially should serve as our tribe's chroniclers if you will, but it seems that as of late, most of them can't even do that well.i've heard it said if you can't do, teach. well i suppose if you can't do either of those you can write "news" articles or work for NPR.

Isn't there anything that can be done to overcome the leftwing bias of the media. They are responsible for Obama, the unions and very nearly everything else that has gone wrong with the American Constitution.

Candyman, nothing has gone wrong with the Constitution, the bastards (I should not insult bastards) don't follow it. They despise the Constitution.

Just heard today that Obama has said he will no longer defend the Defense of Marriage act because "He" has decided it is unconstitutional.I was under the impression that it was up the courts to decide whether a law was constitutional.Of course, that`s something I learned way back when schools still taught facts rather than politically correct garbage.Richard RyanLamar,Missouri (Birthplace of Harry S Truman)

To Richard Ryan Actually, the Founding Fathers considered that it was the duty of people in all three branches of government (Legislative, executive and judiciary) to take whatever they were considering to do and measure it against the Constitution. As I read the enumerated powers section (Art I, Sec 8) the federal government does not have the authority to deal with marriage - this is a matter for the states (10th Amendment). However, this is a double-edged sword, since by the same reasoning, neither the Congress, the President, nor the Supreme Court has the Constitutional authority to impose gay marriage on all the states.

You've just caught up to Amanpour's self-righteous garbage now?BTW: The popular press arose at exactly the same time as political parties: it is no coincidence. Newspapers were supposed to advertise the ideas of the parties. Only recently has "objective journalism" come to be seen as an ideal - even an ethical mandate. Why else do so-called liberals stand outside Fox yelling "Shut up Fox!" like a bunch of children? The terms "shut up" are, of course, very "liberal" and very mature. They can't even stand to hear an opposing point of view!It affirms my conviction that there are only two things that can be said about liberal Democrats that are demonstrably true: they are neither liberal nor are they democrats. The flight of the Wisconsin lawmakers? I rest my case.
