Good Morning, America's Suckers

Watching Good Morning, America is masochistic these days. The spin on everything from the election to the bailout is so patently obvious to anyone with a brain it's outrageous. I only watched a few minutes this morning but it made me so angry my blood pressure went up twenty points. Diane Sawyer was interviewing representatives from the Democratic and Republican campaigns about the upcoming vice presidential debates. Every time she asked the speakers a question she gave the Democrat more time. But even more blatently, when he had spoken for about five seconds his talking head was replaced with a clip showing Obama or Biden surrounded by worshiping supporters. When the Republican spoke, she was given time for a few sentences with no similar background clip of McCain and Palin. To call it obvious bias just doesn't illustrate how egregious it was. Which means GMA thinks the American people are such ignorant suckers they will swallow their sewage and think it's Perrier.

The media is doing the same thing on the bailout with their hysterical handwringing. And they are helping the democrats hide that these deals (which change by the minute) include earmarks for community organizers like ACORN who helped create the problem by agitating to pass the irresponsible Community Reinvestment Act (CRA). CRA forced banks to make bad loans. Economist Tom DiLorenzo has a great article outlining the problem.

Barak Obama is part of the clique that precipitated the crisis. Now the blame game is on to claim it was the Republicans' fault. NO WAY. The video below shows how the Republicans were stymied in their attempts to get regulatory control of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac YEARS AGO. The Dems wouldn't hear of it. And now they want to get their hands on more taxpayer money to "solve" the crisis. It's a game, folks. Keep encouraging your representatives to just say no on the bailout. Christian economist Dave Ramsey has a recommendation to help the situation that is apparently on the table in the discussions. Read it and you can click on his link to send a message to your Senators and Congressman. Hold firm with a big NO NO NO on the $700 billion bailout!
