“The left is winning the argument” - and the next target should be a system of education that K through HS turns young minds to pap and in the ‘mainstream’ universities has become a system of indoctrination.

Brainwashing did not stop with the Korean war.

Like watching McCain’s acceptance speech the other night. The FOX affiliate had him sounding good and plenty of applause. Turned to ABC, they had him sounding muffled and the applause was barely audible. ABC, if you read this, you SUCK!

It's GREAT to read this!

I love to see villains get what they deserve. I hope to see more of this.

About time that the liberal media is being exposed for their blatant pro-Obama bias.

>> How would you skillfully handle it?

Skillful politics — that’s above my pay grade. :-)

I’m more your bombthrowing rabblerouser type.

Having said that... what NOT to do is whine about it, or lean on it as the priority 1 issue. But employing every legitimate opportunity to calmly point it out and call it what it is (briefly) before moving on to the real issues — I think that would be a good start.

One more thing — I have every confidence that the McCain-Palin campaign *can* and *will* handle the media issue with skill and good effect.

Why is it that small town America has a better sense of fairness than the big cities??? Is it because one often knows or at least recognises the people around them?

You can't treat someone like crap in a small town and expect to never see them again. You have to keep the peace and get along with those around you. Next year they might be a potential customer, business associate, your next boss, your new neighbor. And they will tell so-and-so what you did so you have to be accountable for all of your actions. And there is almost no such thing as privacy!

Looks like they’re getting a taste of what they dished out to the Bush Administration multiple times a day.

Many years ago, we had a kick-butt storm go through our area. It just tore up an area of duplex rental beyond the west side of town, where I was living at the time. The media were all over the place the next day.

I was in line with others getting water from the Salvation Army or some volunteer organization. As I was getting my containers filled, an NBC cameraman sitting on the hood of a car going slowly down the road panned down the line of people waiting for water to me. I looked straight into the camera and gave him the biggest sh!t-eattin’ toothy grin I had.

His reaction was priceless. He put the camera down and looked away in disgust. I totally blew his shot!

I’m still proud of that moment!

In many European cities there are two newspapers, one leaning right and the other leaning left. Sadly, ours almost all lean left and pretend not to.

Well yelling won’t do it. People should flood their offices with emails, go on their forums, vote in their polls. That is the way to protest. Of course supporting DNCTV(CNN or MSNBC) should be a NO No. Write the Big 3 TV outlets. And flood the major liberal media print media with op-ed comments. I have been doing that for years, since I have had a PC. I know others do too. It must be done to put pressure on the naifs. Also, get people to register to vote for the GOP and then write the media and tell them why they registered GOP.

Small-town residents boo media with McCain

I'd just tell the reporters:
Look to your left,
look to your right,
now you know three "journalists" that might be out of a job in the
near future.

I supposed the media is shocked.
Because they probably thought we small-town folks couldn't be
bitter even when we weren't simultaneously displaying our religion
and clinging to our guns.
