Christmas is a make or break time for many businesses. The economy is doing so well the rats need to talk it down. If they convince enough people to hold back spending over Christmas some businesses will fail. The last time the rats held any real power was in 1992 after they cashed in on a mild recession. They think they can tank the economy by 2006 to effect the elections.
They are delusional. Only the MSM consumers can be influenced by their lies and those consumers are mainly rats. Republicans turn to Fox, talk radio, and the internet for information. Moderates don't follow politics and they have short attention spans and short term memory failure.
Unfortunately for the MSM they have little else they can do. The MSM distort the news because they can't win with the truth. If they followed the mold of Fox news by presenting both side fairly and leting the people descide they would see an end to their contining errosion in audience and influence. Instead they viciously attack and impuign the man I voted for twice, they insult our soldiers, and they insult the protections afforded them by our Constitution. That will come back to bite them.
The MSM has the right to ditort the truth but the people don't have to stand for it and more and more of them are turn off the MSM and tuning into the new media. Telling someone the economy sucks when they are working overtime and making bonuses is not convincing.
"The MSM has the right to distort the truth".....I'm not so sure...at some point there IS liability the shareholders in the MSM have, consequent to journalistic malpractice....

True, but a funny thing happened on the way to nirvana, I am working overtime and making bonuses but I still am paid far less than someone who did the same job four years ago was paid, have lesser benefits at higher cost and am expected to work harder than the person who had the job four years ago. This is because the company has gone to a great deal of trouble to maneuver their way to a two-tiered pay system, those who are "grandfathered" still earn decent money while those who have been there less than four years are on a new pay scale which is only around sixty percent of the old pay scale and benefits are not as good. Things must be truly wonderful somewhere to balance out what is happening here.
