***Why Newspapers DESERVE to DIE***
Stardate: 09111.8

Posted on 11/08/2009 3:37:04 AM PST by The Wizard

Once something no longer serves a purpose, or fails at it's main function, it deserves to die...

There was a time when newspapers championed the people of America.....they were a valued 4th estate that protected America from the arrogance and contempt of crooked politians and meglomaniacs who saw the American people as dups and fodder for thier own political dreams.....in those days headlines like:

Congressional Arrogance

Deaf Congress

Presidential Imperialism

would have been everywhere....

Everyone knows America doesn't want this bill....millions of Americans have demonstrated their opinion on this only to be ignored by power mad idiots who only serve "the master" like Renfield in Dracula....

Nazi Pelosi would never have gotten the passes on her total contempt for the people of this country if we had a free press, and some journalists here and there.....everything in this country comes from the people, not from the government class of elitist assholes who think they serve some purpose.....

The head line today should be

215 Americans in congress stand up to the enemies of America people

But there is no one to write the story

And even those fool blue dogs who failed to realize that they were always just dups, put in place to give Nazi the votes to damage America...it was always a part of the plan to use them and then throw them away...Rahm was smart enough to trick them into thinking they had value past these bills......what chumps, I feel for them.....

When our government votes against the wishes of the majority, they have met the textbook definition of tyranny. They only retain their ability to govern through the consent of the people. They are the ones who have wilfully taken actions to have their consent to govern revoked. By their actions they have made the current government of the United States illegitimate. All revolutions start with a singular point, and this is it.
According to the Declaration of Independence we have a right, as well as an obligation to abolish our government when it becomes destructive. We have the right, and duty, to overthrow the government when a “long train of abuses and usurpations” occurs. I could go on endlessly, listing these abuses, and usurpations, but it is not necessary at this point.
Proverbially, as far as I am concerned, this is the straw that broke the camel’s back. This is my Declaration of Independence, and woe to they whom have crossed the line from governance to monarchy. We are no longer citizens, but subjects, and as such, I demand the current “government’s” surrender and to vacate the seat of our government, or I will consider them to be occupiers, and will act accordingly.

That statement could have come from the healthcare bill.

Newspapers have ALWAYS been partisan —problem is today the left has a monopoly where many moons ago there was a balance but since our universities are run by leftists over the years the conservative papers disappeared

I have always wondered, why isn’t there a good, conservative newspaper out there, you know it would do well.

I have distant friends that are writers. They cannot understand why I insist that the newspapers would be selling out in massive volumes if they only took a more even approach or even a conservative approach. If for no other reason but purely business, why not try it? They do not get it.

> They do not get it.

I think that’s part of it. As an old newspaper person myself, I recognize the
power of the RETRACTION. That is a rare event nowadays.

Newspapers — and the MSM in general — cannot overlook the fact the public
simply does not believe most of the tripe they put forth.

TRUST is NOT a renewable resource. Once it’s spent, it’s lost forever.
