"Lead With The Down Side"

The media treated Obama as if he was a “Messiah” until just recently. They got him elected, and they got him re-elected by “leading with the upside” in all their coverage of him and his actions, no matter how stupid or ignorant while “leading with the downside” in their coverage of Bush and ALL Republicans. Even with the recent rise of the “alternative media,” this has had an effect. He’s losing them now, after beginning to spy on them. But I think it’s going to be “too little, too late.”

SHOWING HIS TRUE COLORS: Snowden revealed his true colors when he said, “Being called a traitor by Dick Chaney is the highest honor a man can receive.” Well, he might be right if you include human beings in that lot. But that may be true ONLY among traitorous liberals who are running this government today. Not among INTELLIGENT people.

“IN YOUR FACE” GOVERNING: Lately Obama has been doing a number of things I call “in your face governing.” Recently, he appointed Susan Rice (the liar of Benghazi) to be his National Security Advisor (a position not requiring Congressional approval because he knew he’d never get it), sending $billions worth of guns to Islamic terrorists who have taken over the rebellion in Syria, sending troops to be “under the command of the Muslim Brotherhood” in Egypt. I don’t know what he thinks he’s doing, but such “in your face” governing can’t help his “cause.”

BAD DECISION: Maine governor LePage has decided he will no longer talk to the press. He’s taken a page out of Obama’s press flack’s notebook and started answering everything with a “no comment. But it’s not very smart to pick a fight with people who buy ink and paper by the ton. He only has the “bully pulpit” when they give it to him. They have it every day. That’s what they DO.

PELLY LIES ABOUT COVERAGE: CBS commentator Scott Pelley tried to minimize Fox’s coverage by saying they only had about 200,000 viewers at “any given time.” Maybe at 3AM on a Sunday. But he, himself only has about 6 million viewers, while on average while Fox has 7 MILLION most times of the day. Maybe Pelley flunked math in school—if he actually WENT there. If the “mainstream media” doesn’t start realizing how much the “alternative media” has gained on them, they’re going to “shrivel and die.”

LOADED WITH LIBERALS: There is a television show about the news media running today and there is a long list of “media advisors” to the show and ALL are liberals. Not a conservative among them. I guess the media wants to make sure the show only tells the LIBERAL side of things. This is not at all unusual. They have lost most of their power, but they haven’t realized it yet. But they still do everything they can to keep the news slanted in a liberal direction—even if it KILLS them. But they don’t care what we think. They still think THEY “mold” our opinion. But whatever they do to America’s opinion, it’s “moldy.”
