Why does it take so long for the media to open it's "objective" eyes and see what many of us have seen for months. Is the spell that seemed to be cast, on mainstream media, finally wearing off. It's one thing for us, as citizens, to be sucked up and in by a very talented and charismatic politician. Especially when Our Nation has been crying out for some ( desperately needed ) change in our government and, out of nowhere, this good looking eloquent speaker, who looks nothing like any of our leaders of past, promising us the Hope & Change we needed so desperately. I might add, we STILL do. We wanted to believe him, we almost needed to. Yet, it still took us, normal everyday citizens, less time to sober up to the fact that this guy was not who he claimed he was. That the change he is bringing, is not the change we had hoped for. Maybe I was wrong in assuming that the news media were more educated than me. That they were trained in detecting "B.S.". That their job was to report objectively, search for the angle and bring to light inconsistencies. See, we have an excuse, ( not really, but for the sake of making my point ) we are "un-edjumicated" in this sort of stuff. All we had to go by was what the "Powerful & Mighty" Press reported to us. ( lame excuse, don't even try to use it )
Still, that's not the point of my ranting today. That's not why I'm even writing about this.
Here's what made me mad when I watched this clip on RealClearPolitics.com
THE ONLY REASON THEY ARE TAKING NOTICE NOW, IS NOT BECAUSE THEY SEE THAT THIS ADMINISTRATION IS DESTROYING OUR GREAT COUNTRY. IT'S BECAUSE THEY ARE SEEING ( like we have ) THAT THEY ARE BEING CONTROLLED BY THEM !!
