In an all too bitter presidential election year where the approval rating of our current President is at an historical low and the approval rating of Congress is even lower still, we now have an unchecked liberal media that shuns truth and impartiality in favor of “spin,” innuendo, and out right fabrication. In a nation that is identified as being only about 20% liberal (from the more respectable polling companies left) it should be alarming enough for the remaining 80% percent of the nations citizens that this extremely important bastion of freedom (the MSM) has fallen so totally to the fanatical fringes of our society.

   It shouldn’t be a great surprise to any of us that after more than three decades of relatively unmolested liberal hypocrisy and fanaticism bolstered by the “religion” of Multiculturalism and Political Correctness, and is directly due to the primary bastion of the ultra-leftist ideology; America’s colleges and universities. Where did people think our fresh faced journalists and reporters spent a critical formative portion of their young lives and education?

   Hillary Clinton came from a staunch Republican family until that is, she attended college. Even John McCain’s daughter proudly claims that she is a Democrat. A shift in her political thinking that seems to have occurred after she began college.  

   This is clear from the latest unending vitriolic attacks on Sarah Palin by our (you guessed it) Democratic MSM liberal ideology. When attacking her “lack of experience” and her 17 year old daughter’s unwed pregnancy had been reported ad nauseam, now the MSM is reporting on the two Alaskan churches she has attended and horror of horrors the MSM has reported almost ashen faced in their obvious disgust, as they have announced that Palin is a Christian! It turns out, the MSM reports, that Palin was raised in a Pentecostal church where they believe in speaking in “tongues,” that Jesus Christ died on the cross for all man kinds sins, the sanctity of life (i.e., abortion), and loving our neighbors! The MSM would have us believe that this could constitute a serious threat to national security if a devout Christian should become the President of the United States, or even the Vice President, who is only a “heartbeat” away from the presidency.

   It must be remembered that this is the same MSM who has simply refused to report the rest of the worlds news ever since the DNC convention and apparently plans to continue it’s self imposed black out until the end of this presidential race. The Russia – Georgia conflict, the utter failure of the recent gun bans in Canada and more recently Australia, Obama’s well documented (though unreported) ties to a wide variety of “radical” anti-American types, and of course the Iraqi and Afghanistan war fronts.

   The same was true of John Edwards “unfortunate” affair with a woman he met in a bar and paid handsomely to be a sort of publicist, while his doting wife was battling terminal cancer. It wasn’t our MSM that broke this story. It was the National Enquirer and hundreds of serious “bloggers’ around the country. The MSM only paid this story lip service when it could no longer be kept out of the headlines.

   Now we have Obama himself telling a crowd of his faithful that “you shouldn’t be able to make this stuff up. To reinvent yourself” while referring to the policies of McCain. This should be akin to waving a red flag to a real journalist but we can rest assured that in the ensuing silence you can hear the crickets chirp and the soft breeze playing with the tree tops. Obama can make such a bold statement with the complete confidence of a man who has nothing to fear from what passes today as our nation’s current pack of “journalists.” The Obama camp has been pummeling McCain on his 90% voting record while failing to point out that Obama has a nearly 100% voting record for the Democratic party. The Obama camp has made no bones about the fact that they are expecting the MSM to dig up enough dirt, or baring that, at least more half-truths and innuendo on Palin. Does anyone really believe that Obama came from no where and is now the presidential candidate for the DNC over the hugely powerful, though obviously not powerful enough, Clinton machine?

    As disturbing as all this is, there is something that should be even more disturbing to America. That is the quiet acquisitions being made by rich Arab countries like Saudi Arabia. They are using the enormous wealth that they never had to work for with the sweat of their own brows, but which flows from the sheer happenstance that their desert sands contain so much of the world’s oil. Now as a capitalist I don’t necessarily blame them for their incredible good luck but I can certainly take offense at the way they have chosen to use that enormous wealth. You might think that they would have spent that vast fortune on their own lands and people. Instead they have chosen to spread the world wide terrorism that is the Arabic religion of Wahhabi Islam along with it’s militant arm the Muslim Brotherhood.

   This is their legacy to the world; incredibly violent acts around the world on top of the most virulent form of racial supremacist ideology known to mankind. A political manifesto wrapped in a religion. A nation that supposedly espouses “religious cooperation and tolerance,” while refusing to allow leaders of non-Islamic religions into the “sacred kingdom.”

   They have bought up huge portions of the world’s financial centers, banking industries and yes, our own MSM. There is a famous account of one of the so called Saudi “royals” sitting in his New York penthouse suite watching the news coverage of the 2005 French Muslim riots occurring in hundreds of cities around that unfortunate country. It is reported that he picked up his phone and made a call to the head of one of the nations largest MSM CEO’s and complained at the continuing use of the term “rioting Muslim youths.” It was also reported that within 20 minutes of that phone call the term “Muslim” was dropped from all further reporting on those MSM stations.    

   Not that I am excusing the ultra-liberal MSM who haven’t the brains to understand that the majority of Americans easily identify with Palin, not McCain, and certainly not the radical Obama or Biden , because Palin is much more representative of mainstream Americans. This only becomes more obvious with each MSM “special” on the fact that Palin is a Christian, that her family enjoys the beautiful abundance of the Alaskan wilderness (as opposed to the ridiculous view of most of our nations “conservation” groups which would have us all believe that the only way to enjoy nature is to enshrine it and stay the hell out of it) and that ultimately she is some sort of zealot who shouldn’t be trusted anywhere near the most powerful position in all the world.

   Yet they generally fail to mention that Ronald Reagan, George Bush and Bill Clinton were all Governors before they became president. Ronald Reagan was treated to a similar tirade of liberal media pundits during his campaign and early presidency and yet it turns out he made a pretty darn good president, despite his religious affiliations to Christianity. One particularly pushy journalist asked President Reagan if he had a plan for dealing with the cold war threat of the U.S.S.R. to which his response was both immediate and telling. “We win. They lose.” That certainly seemed to sum up his feelings quite nicely don’t you think?
