We have NO opposition party.


And it is a VERY LARGE problem.

We have no “Fourth Estate” media that that acts as the watchdog of the Republic. Rather, they have become the paid for and politically joined at the hip propagandists of the Left.

IMHO, that is the biggest problem we have today (and I big reason I post this thread week after week, year after year. Just be being around these press people, I know their obvious and extreme biases, their deliberate misleading tactics, the blatant omissions of what is going on and worthy of at least a few minutes of discussion, and their palpable, evident cheerleading of democrats and clear disdain of conservatives.)

Nixon had Woodward and Bernstein.

Reagan had Sam Donaldson’s constant screaming at the helicopter.

Clinton had it’s only about sex, a private matter.

Bush had the NYT’s 63 straight days of Abu Grahb on the front page.

Obama has Goebbels and Pravda.

How can you have an Opposition Party when the majority of Amercians who pay no fed taxes and get entitlements and a check from the IRS ARE NOT OPPOSED to what is going on?

I fear we have reached a tipping point..and WE who work or have worked and are not on the freebies of the govt ARE NOW THE MINORITY.So, in THAT way, Congress IS doing the will of the people, ie the majority.
