Cartoon Network ranked 13.

MSNBC was 26th.

Former DNC Chairman, and former presidential contender Howard “YEAHHHH!!!!!!!!!” Dean stated on MSNBC’s Morning Joe that he would not–get this–”vigorously support” President Obama in his re-election bid. Bami still has 3 more years to go… if Howard Dean of all people is already soured on the guy then what does that mean for the rest of his party?

More importantly, what does it mean when Howard Dean of all people is acting like one of the more sane members of the Democratic party? Is the thermostat in hell broken?

Text and video of the exchange on the other side of the break.

Folks, I was curious about people calling the health care protests “astroturf;” meaning, the protesters are recruited to be there by right-wing fringe leaders like Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, Bill O’Reilly, and, the mobfather himself, Rush Limbaugh.

But, people seem to be missing the point.  Nancy Pelosi, for example, called those asking questions of the Messiah “Un-American.”  But, in 2006, she said, “I’m a fan of disruptors.”

Check it out here.

Barack Obama said that those questioning him are being funded by Big Insurance…If only he had proof…

And he also blames the “ruckus” on “cable news.” Now, ladies and gentlemen, let’s not be dim here.  He means Fox News.

But, if it turns out these groups are getting marching orders from groups,–in the words of Rush Limbaugh–’bout damn time.

And I completely agree.  The aggressor sets the rules, folks.  The left-wing loons set a precedent for disruptive behavior, and to refer to the questioning of an elected official as “Un-American” is simply that.

Now, let’s take a look at the real astroturf.

Now, I must admit, I get my marching orders from MoveOn.org.  I receive their email…just so I can know what’s going on in the world outside of my God and Guns…

Here is part of an email from August 7, 2009:

Check it out–as well as just who is laying astroturf–after the jump…

Yes, folks.  According to Yahoo News, Tim Geithner wants to impose new guidelines for publicly traded companies to better match pay with long-term performance.

He said that he does not want to put caps on the pay…but that sounds like what they’re going to do…but just call it something else.

What gets me about this is how they support unions and a minimum wage…in short, not being paid by your performance, while wanting that for executives…

Barack Obama’s administration had a slip up the other day.

Obama’s Chief minister of arts and culture, Kareem Dale, began his speech with:

“At the White House, as we all like to say, ‘We love MSNBC.’”

Fast Forward to 1:50.

Apparently the thrills in the legs are reciprocal…

I always thought GE was stood to gain from their network’s coverage of Obama…

But this is just rediculous…

Kareem must not have been notified that GE shareholders are not happy with MSNBC…

GE has something to gain by being left wing.

GE has a vested interest in Obama’s Cap and Trade proposal.

So, why would they say anything negative of the almighty Barack?

This is why Jeff Immelt lets MSNBC run wild with their liberal bias.

Audio here.

At the annual shareholder meeting, Jeffrey Immelt was asked about Janeane Garofalo’s comments about recent Tea Parties–
“teabagging rednecks–and if he considers it “hate speech.”

His question received much applause.

His answer, “I believe that MSNBC has standards they follow…”

Booing ensued.

Good work Jesse Watters!

FOX RATINGS SURGE ON PROTEST COVERAGE

8-11 PM ET

FOXNEWS 3,390,000

FOXNEWS O’REILLY 3,980,000

FOXNEWS HANNITY 3,239,000

But, remember, folks, it is just a conspiracy, propagated by the right-wing Fox News, a cooridinated attack on CNN and MSNBC.

And Jon Stewart is in on it too…

What will the legacy of the tea party protests be? How–if at all–will April 15th, 2009 be remembered? By even 24 hours after the event people already do not seem to care and more than that, many believe the lies propigated by the media. My Political Science professor for example denigrated the many thousands of men and women who took to the streets yesterday from both parties by dismissing them as “teabaggers”; also intimating that they were ignorant or at the very lest pawns of the “vast right-wing conspiracy” because even though they were protesting about taxes, on the whole most of the people were eligible for a tax break. Unfortuneately, many people seem to believe this MSNBC-approved line…

That’s all well and good, but with the utmost respect to the people who ascribe to this belief that people who protest are pawns, ignorant, etc. are themselves ignorant for not looking at the whole picture. Take the state of California for example. Sure, 95% of people are eligible for a tax break–when those eventually take effect. But what about the tax increases at the state level across the board? What about the sales tax increases? Vehicle lisencing fees? What about all the increased taxes that stem from a state government that is THE MOST FISCALLY IRRESPONSIBLE IN THE COUNTRY? But don’t worry because the federal government is going to give you a tax break… Whose going to give a tax break to my grandchildren? The tea parties were not just a protest about taxes, although that was a major part of the events in Sacramento, they were about people asking, begging, pleading for our government to take a hard look at the concequences of their actions. People took to the streets to demand the government stop shreddng the constitution and spending imaginary money for bailouts of companies that don’t deserve them. The people were rallying for common sense, not governmental stupidity.

So at the end of the day what will the legacy of the Tea Party be? Will Barack Obama even take notice of all that transpired yesterday? Will anyone notice that of the hundreds of parties across the country there was not ONE reported incident of violence? (looking at you Ms. Homeland Security.) Will people take the time to actually understand the Tea Parties were not biased? In California, the state GOP caucus was TURNED AWAY. Perhaps people will remember, or maybe they will forget. But why should they? You and I know the real reasons why tens of thousands of our friends, families and neighbors took to the streets, and it is up to all of us to ensure that the real and true reasons behind the protests are remembered. Forget FoxNews, or any other media outlet or political party that might try and insinuate themselves into our protests. Talk to your friends and neighbors, talk to your co-workers, engage people who buy into the MSNBC/CNN lies. Don’t let the media hijack this event and twist it in either direction. April 15th belongs to us, not them, just as this country belongs to us and not them–whomever ‘them’ might be. Let April 15th serve as a rallying cry to all the people of this land to stand up for what they believe in and wrest this country back from greedy politicians and media outlets who do not see a strong nation full of honest, hard working folks, but only see another vote to be bought or a set of eyes to look at their advertisements. Remember April 15th, 2009 as the opening salvo in the war on common sense. Tax day was not our last, final stand as some in the media have said. Tax day was not our Alamo, we drew a line in the sand sure enough, but the fight for the return of common sense to our country is only just beginning…

MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow misleading the American people saying that black people are being unfairly “singled out.”  Of the ten people listed, TWO are black.  And black people are being singled out… RIGHT.
