“The Sunday Morning Bray”, by Bray!

For, “Whoever would LOVE life and see good days must keep his tongue from evil and his lips from deceitful speech. 1 Peter 3:10

The Establishmedia is at it again, vilifying our candidates playing whack-a-mole and turning our leaders into cartoonish loons if they say anything that doesn’t agree with their parroted DC groupthink; but enough about FOX News. Our candidates have to go on the attack with all of the media and treat them like the inside the beltway echo chamber they are. Most of the media got into the business because they wanted to promote liberal ideas and get Dems elected. They believed they could promote liberal ideals in a new way that everybody would be able to agree with if they only saw it as they did, now they are bitter old parrots who have nothing to offer.

The media is the only institution in DC more corrupt than the gummit. It also holds the distinction for being hated more than those same politicians they vilify every night, quite an accomplishment. The reason is they have no objective thought process in their analysis, only DNC clichéd phrases. There is no news or other side of any issue, simply the DNC talking points one after another as they wait for the weekly Brie and Chablis circuit. Once they get to their foray, they talk to other elitist snobs discussing which Democrat they like best and how could anybody be as stupid as Republican X. If you are one of those extremely rare conservative mediots than you go as the Token leper who is the party whipping boy as everybody else tries to humiliate and denigrate.

A true conservative would never go to one of these bash fests so the ones who are there become the Token Lawn Jockey conservative who is the amusement of these Columbia grads. They slowly weary of trying to defend the Conservatives since most are not true conservatives themselves and begin to make fun of our candidates to be admitted to the club and so the process continues. To be taken serious by the establishmedia or advance up the ladder you must be a liberal. As soon as one of our candidates begins to lead the pack by espousing Conservative ideas which go against the liberal establishment group thought they immediately become a target for the media attack machine which are soon verified by their phony polls and back into the pack they supposedly fall.

This election season we are witnessing the pure corruption of our reporters as they march lockstep in their absolute disgust of any candidate who strays off their tracks. The first two heads over the media mantles were Palin and Cain now they are turning their guns on Newt. He is an old time enemy and his disgust for them is only exceeded by theirs of him. They immediately made Bachmann a hero for her attacks on Gingrich which knocked him off his game although he once again knocked a few out of the park on judges and the pipeline. He is their biggest threat to their power as he can easily beat their messiah in a debate while articulating conservatism to the unwashed masses. They pretend to not have a dog in this hunt while they own the hunt.

What we are witnessing is a bigger fraud the MF Global since this is a fraud election being perpetrated on the American people as fair and open. It is not only rigged but we have reporters distorting the results of the debates to minimize the current leader while trying to sway the voters towards Mitt Rino so they will continue to have a liberal in the Whitehouse. They live and die by polls and are terrified of what they see coming down the tracks and fear a strong Conservative could do the unthinkable of taking all three houses making the press even less relevant. If that happens they would be like blind men describing a sunrise to a bunch of sighted people.

Every election we see it and are always amazed at how corrupt and unethical Old Media is. They have no oversight and run rampant over any type of ethics or integrity as they continue to shill for their Party. As Conservatives we expect to have a fair playing field and time and again we are exposed to the complete stacking of the deck against our candidates as they promote their tyrannical agenda. We hear a common sense solution to a problem only to have it mocked like it was something from an insane asylum while they continue to promote their failed programs.

The only way we are going to beat this corrupted system is to get behind a non-establishment candidate and support them to the end and quit playing the gotcha politics to push the ball as far down the field this election. We need America to understand that simple solutions like drilling and the Keystone Pipeline will work and create jobs the gummit could only pretend to make. It is time to unite against the establishmedia candidate and mop him all over the floor and then beat Barak Ocommie in a landslide using Conservative ideas to defeat this corrupt stranglehold on our elections.

Pray for America

Good morning, Alas. Hope Free Republic plays nice this morning and lets us talk.

Also hope WE play nice. I, for one, will try.

Four candidates on this morning but no one I want to see really.

Does anyone really want to see Barney Frank again as long as they live?

LOL! It’s ok. Could really use an infusion of talent...trying to get my foot back in the door and out of all this tactical stuff for a little bit.

Other than that just enjoying another beautiful snowy day in Bavaria....ready for a little political discourse.

For crying out loud, Romney on FNSunday.
Chris Wallace already asked him about his flip-flops during the debate, so what on earth can he ask him that will be new? His investments in Fannie & Freddie?

I plan to watch Face the Nation!

I’ll watch MTP and FNSunday too. *Sigh*

OH, and Good Morning and thanks for the thread!!!!

Perry and Santorum are missing and that’s a shame.

I’d love to hear Gov. Haley explain her weird turn in endorsing Mitt-flop.

I notice somehow no one could find 5 minutes to talk to Perry.

Reminds me of when Bush was “disappeared” from coverage after Gore was nominated. A lot of people accused him of being a lazy campaigner when it was the lack of coverage that made him invisible.

Good morning, everyone!

To: bray

bray, you are so right. The media is a bigger enemy than anything else.

They protect liberals ferociously and without conscience. Look how few people realize how many really idiotic gaffes Obama has made?

They emphasize any tiny missteps by conservative candidates. Both the Dallas Morning News and the Ft. Worth(less) Star Telegram carried front page stories yesterday about Perry getting some pension from the state as though it were illegal.

We keep thinking their influence is dying, but it’s not.

Not to the ordinary person who is not a political junky like some of us.

It is infuriating, and I do think their influence is lessening Very Slightly.

anyway, thanks for the post.

It’s another clear cut case of the media trying to pick our candidate for us. And the supposed Conservatives in D.C. and in the media aren’t helping those of us that vote at all.

The establishment...Rockerfeller Republicans want to force McCain lite on us in the form of Mitt-flop instead of helping us nominate someone that will fix the mess we have now.

I called Fox yesterday to complain about the ignoring of Perry in the debate.

And I never call people to complain. I just gripe to you guys.
