They won’t rebel, they have already drank the kool-aide and will be slipping into sweet unconsciousness and release soon...

Poor babies. Just wait until their opinion doesn’t count and it is, “write this or you are fired.” Right now they think writing for the regime is cool because they believe they are actually making a difference.

Eventually what they think will become a crime against the state.

They made their own bed. I have no sympathy.

That’s the 60% who believe that the other 40% don’t kneel properly before Obama before they kiss his nether regions.

Do we have any real journalists left in the U.S.?

(Remembeer, a degree in journalism is about as believable as a degree in womyn’s studies.)

Things would be fine if they would just admit their bias and accept the alternate media as the myriad newspapers representing all views accepted each other in the past.
