Clinton Campaign Colluded with Media Surrogates

We all know the media is an appendage of the Democratic Party.  Any discerning citizen instinctively knows this.  Now we have proof.  The Intercept published emails among Clinton staffers plotting with sleeper cells in the press.  These emails were provided by Guccifer 2.0.  Here is an excerpt.

Other documents listed those whom the campaign regarded as their most reliable “surrogates” — such as CNN’s Hilary Rosen and Donna Brazile, as well as Center for American Progress President Neera Tanden — but then also listed operatives whom they believed were either good “progressive helpers” or more potentially friendly media figures who might be worth targeting with messaging. The metadata of the surrogate document shows the file was authored by Jennifer Palmieri, the communications director of the campaign. As The Intercept previously reported, pundits regularly featured on cable news programs were paid by the Clinton campaign without any disclosure when they appeared; several of them are included on this “surrogates” list, including Stephanie Cutter and Maria Cardona.

I noticed David Brooks made the list.  Isn’t he touted as a conservative?  Yeah, they just confirmed what we already knew.

Media Caught Openly Advocating Hillary Clinton's Presidency

Thirty years ago, the media were subtle about their leftist inclinations.  We all knew they were raging progressives despite their attempts at deception.  Today, these so-called objective reporters aren’t hiding their political affiliations.  They have become an arm of the Democratic Party.

Sharyl Attkisson witnessed media advocacy first hand. 

Sharyl Attkisson: There’s definitely tilted news coverage. I can’t imagine any objective observer who would think otherwise. And, I tell you, I was in a room of journalists in which one of them encouraged the others quite publicly to step up and do something because he said the outcome of this election was so important. And the other thing he said led me to believe and others. He was talking about journalists stepping outside of their role to make sure Donald Trump doesn’t get elected. And he received applause for that. It’s fine for the pundits to do that but I think journalists are widely overstepping their roles.

News and Observer Puts on a Blue Dress for Obama

The progressive puppy mills in North Carolina, also known as mainstream newspapers, are so desperate to report good news for the Obama administration that they will outright lie to the public.  Case in point is The News and Observer out of Raleigh.  They believe we are in a recovery.  And what could possibly lead them down this primrose path?  Here is an excerpt:

President Barack Obama’s political opponents doubtless won’t take “yes” for an answer or acknowledge that his stewardship of the economy has been on track, but the June job figures are promising indeed. Some 288,000 jobs were added last month, and the nation’s unemployment rate dropped to 6.1 percent.

The stock market shot up at the news, appropriately so.

And then came the White House budget office estimate that the 2014 federal deficit will drop to $583 billion this year, the lowest level since the president took office. The estimate was $66 billion less than the administration predicted earlier this year.

No one person or event stands above others as the reason for this significant step forward in the economic comeback since Obama took office in January 2009. And the president’s chronic critics would say it all would have happened anyway in the natural course of post-recession economics.

Anyone who has done their homework knows the job participation rate is the lowest it’s been since 1978.  288,000 jobs is a drop in the bucket. We just had the 17^th worst quarter in American history with -2.9% collapse in GDP. 

 The News and Disturber then applauds federal deficit figures provided by the White House.  The Obama administration lied about last year’s figures.  Zero Hedge puts things in perspective:

Despite the Obama administration touting a budget deficit of “only” $680 billion in 2013, the GAO’s more accurate accounting shows a total government cost of $3.8 trillion on total revenue of $2.8 trillion.

In other words– the administration wasn’t exactly honest with the American people– the deficit was more like $1 trillion, not $680 billion. But it gets worse.

The GAO added up ALL the US government’s assets in 2013. Aircraft carriers. The highway system. Land. Cash and financial assets. The total is $2.97 trillion.

The liabilities, on the other hand, total $19.88 trillion. This includes the official public debt, plus all sorts of IOUs and loan guarantees.

This means the net EQUITY of the US government is minus $16.9 trillion.

Moreover, the US government’s cash position is a mere $206 billion… roughly 1.1% of its public debt. This isn’t enough to cover net interest payments for the next year.

The Obama administration has a tendency to lie about their numbers.  You’d think the News and Observer would take that into consideration.  But the editors at this rag have their own version of cigars, pizza and a blue dress.

 And what about the stock market?  Anyone with a radio and a television can tell you many people are apprehensive about what is happening.  Many believe we are in a bubble.  It is just a matter of when it pops.

I won’t even bother addressing the News and Observer's assertions about the success of Obamacare.  Many of us are living that nightmare.  If it were fully implemented, the plebeians would storm Washington D.C. with torches and pitchforks.  Maybe the cheerleaders at this rag would see an angry mob at their fortress as well.

Charlotte Observer Distorts Establishment Diatribe on Tea Party

Big daddy, establishment republicans are fighting back against Tea Party criticisms.  Washington D.C. cannot stand having plebeians holding a mirror to their faces and reminding them of their wart ridden failures.  To insiders, like Michael Gerson, the lords of Washington D.C. are the beautiful people, while we are the great unwashed.

In order to maintain power within the Kingdom of the Potomac, the ruling class must marginalize its critics.  This tactic is as old as the republic.  Federalist and their Tory sympathizers did the same to the so-called Anti-Federalist.  They called these dissenters anarchist, mobs, and haters of government.  Anti-Federalist became a pejorative.  This wouldn’t have been possible without a biased media.  Yes, even back then, there was media bias.

Newspapers, like the Charlotte Observer, feature faux-conservatives like Michael Gerson in their Sunday editions.  This is perfectly natural when you have a republican writing like a democrat.  But what Mr. Gerson and his ilk had better understand is that papers, like the Charlotte Observer, will distort their message as well.  The following paragraphs of Mr. Establishment Republican’s op-ed were left out of the Disturber’s edition:

These habits of mind — desperation, utopianism, purifying zeal and ideological simplicity — have their uses throughout history. But they can’t be called conservative. This is one theme of a careful, instructive essay by Philip Wallach and Justus Myers in National Affairs that ought to be required beach reading for conservatives. The authors describe the attributes of the conservative temperament — humility, an appreciation for what is worthy in our society, a preference for incremental reform, a distrust of abstraction — and contrast them to the “misguided radicals of the left and right.”

Progressives, in their view, have created complex and ungovernable public systems by “doubling down on centralization and technocracy.” But “some on the right seek to break with the past in a very different manner — repudiating 80 years of institutional development and reinventing America as a nation that rejects the substantive role for regulation or a social safety net. Though they are often labeled as ‘conservatives,’ their ambitions, and especially their rhetoric, emphasize the need for a sharp break with many features of our current governing institutions.” The alternative is a more empirically grounded and practical conservatism, which displays a “deep interest and knowledge of our starting place and the plausible means of making improvements.”

I had to get the “unedited” version from the St. Louis Post Dispatch.  The Charlotte Observer didn’t have the decency to advise its readers that Mr. Gerson’s article was an abridged edition.  Go figure.  You would think establishment republicans would’ve learned by now.  But they’re too busy playing whack-a-mole with tea partiers.

MSNBC's Media Malfeasance

A caller on the Rush Limbaugh Show also attended this rally.  He reaffirmed that MSNBC lied about this incident.  This so-called news organization has no credibility.    

MSNBC Takes an Obama Golden Shower

Just how low can MSNBC go? Is an Obama golden shower out of the question? Not with these sycophants.

John Sununu Embarrasses MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell

John Sununu openly mocked Andrea Mitchell. This video is a perfect demostration of media bias. I can only laugh along with Mr. Sununu. However, I can never forgive him for Souter.
