21. You FUCKING Bastards....You Fucking Whore Media Bastards...
From this DU Thread:

You FUCKING Bastards....You Fucking Whore Media Bastards...


A bucket of cold water on me will not work - I AM BEYOND LIVID (and that's after I expected this).I want to make something clear---I have no dog in this Social Security fight because even though I've paid in a fortune, I am not entitled to draw one penny from this system. This is as pure as you're going to get here.

So--tonight I'm out in the kitchen and I hear NBC hyping the evening news with how Republicans are fighting back over Social Security. I knew exactly what this shit was about and flipped into "kill" mode.

I watched and measured every word they said. They told about opposition to Bush's SS and then (on cue) they did a "Swift Boat" routine (and I have something to say here at the end that I know about all of this). They showed a goddamn website ad from these guys (that we already know about)that slammed the AARP as not supporting our troops and being in favor of gay marriage. Of COURSE the point is that by this exposure you have people tonight turning against the AARP and a bunch of goddamn elderly assholes (like me) saying "gee, Clyde, we have to rip up our AARP membership 'cause they are promotin' them gays".

Here's what I mean about what I know. I've posted this in a couple of posts as it became known. First, I said just this afternoon that the news reports were that the Repubs put SS on the backburner when they came back from vacation (they were going to introduce it this last Monday) because they held public meetings on it during vacation in their districts and they were met with total hostility (so they shelved it waiting for Bush to "drum up more support"). Secondly, I posted before that an interview with a CEO on Bloomberg financial news that admitted that Bush is now calling all the CEO's to pressure congress----ahh, like the CEO's THAT FUCKING OWN THE MEDIA!!

And, BINGO, within two days, the media is doing the "SwiftBoat" free advertising on the AARP assault. FOLKS, WE CAN NEVER GET AROUND THIS EXCUSE FOR A FREE PRESS WHICH IS THE PROPAGANDA ARM OF OUR CORPORATIONS". I have no idea how we can even remotely surive. There was no scant mention of Dem opposition--a lame, soft spoken line from Reid. These bastards are promoting for free this internet ad (and I'm sure soon to be main stream media ad) calling the AARP both unpatriotic and favoring gays. Look for it to appear all over the place with NOT ONE, NOT ONE opinion nor ad nor observation from the opposition--including the ads the AARP and others are going to run or are running now. Bottom Line: figure out a way to live 'cause all of us are dead meat and have no future under these Nazis.
