Greece Just Tip of Debt Crisis Iceberg: Roubini

No kidding. ---- To quote from the link: The sovereign debt crisis will get worse and bond vigilantes could move on to even bigger economies like the United States and Japan when they are done sweeping through vulnerable European nations http://www.cnbc.com/id/36795861 - The Debt Crisis - RHP

The logic of the left - twinges of truth too - http://www.aolnews.com/opinion/article/opinion-a-modest-proposal-for-the-anti-government-crowd/19445966 - indeed, I heard Bill Maher do a similar challenge to the Tea Party about the Defense Dept. Spending -- RHP.

The Great Disconnect - Citizens, MainStream Media, and Politicians

A few moments ago on CNBC I heard President Obama say these words `the economy's growth has been the greatest in the last three decades'...................................... I'll let that settle a bit in your mind and the bad taste in your mouth to dissapate.

Here's how I think most would feel.

Oh, really, seems this RHP headline of your own government statistics a few days ago  Great Recession Continues - Unemployment Up In More States Than Down - would be more accurate to the citizens of the country. Let alone your own statistics also showing 44 states with WORSE unemployment numbers now compared to a year ago. Does that remotely sound like the best news in three decades? To most citizens, playing with the numbers to produce words such as `greatest growth in three decades' is beyond reproach.

But, nonetheless, the government leaders speak of the great comeback - and, while the MSM can read the same numbers as the citizens (due to a free press?) - and whose talking heads live in the same communities of the citizens -- and who themselves KNOW that conditions HAVE NOT IMPROVED -- and despite all that - the MSM `talking head' simply repeats what the `leaders' want - and finishes the words with a smile. Following the mantra to `Cheerlead' the economy at all costs - even if it destroys the reporters believability factor. Even if classroom sizes are doubling because of the near disaster of an economy we HAVE? (Can the dissconnect be greater than `saving' at the expense of the children?)

OR, how about this headline at RHP in the last few days? Poll Finds Tea Party Backers Wealthier and More Educated - I mean, to me, certainly, the Tea Party folks have been portrayed nearly ONLY as uneducated, racist, outsiders to the American way of life. Portrayed that way by who? The MSM, of course. Wonder why? Democraps and Republinuts buy LOTS OF ADS and contribute to the MSM's bottomline. The same Republinuts and Democraps that the citizens By Nearly 4-1 Majority of Americans Distrust the Government: Survey feel like this RHP headline.

OR, how about the use of force on citizens that has increased with barely a wimper from the MSM over the last few decades? How much have you heard of this recent RHP headline in the MSM? Maryland's SWAT Transparency Bill Produces Its First Disturbing Results - Just who's side is the MSM on? Huh? Have you EVER heard a MSM person (one that wants to keep their paycheck next week) question where all this is going? Or, what happens when they come for YOU?

And, how could the media miss for decades this story - How The War On Drugs Is A War On Class - again a recent RHP headline much more in contact with citizen views than Politician views. Is the MSM that stupid? Are they that much of a shrill for the views of the politicians? Do they realize that when they show a SWAT raid that nets 20 pounds of pot in one state that in some states Judges are ordering the RETURN of pot to citizens - sometimes pounds of pot? Or that many have prescriptions for this product? Does it strike the media that they have been a shrill for a phoney war against the citizens? (Oh, that's right, lawyers advertise too - let's not upset one of their core businesses.)

Or, that Poll Indicates Plurality Of Americans Views Closer To Tea Party Reformers Than To Elected Worthless Politicians In Congress - is the attitude they should take about what the politicians `say'. But, we have a pussy-whipped media of the first order.

I'm pretty sure it is beyond hopeless - and this - just another internet rant to ignore. And, don't even get me started about the deficit, or, the last time you saw a Libertarian interviewed on TV.

Poll Finds Tea Party Backers Wealthier and More Educated

More bad news for the MSM who wants to portray the TeaPartiers as something they aren't. That said, two days ago, I heard a MSM commentator saying - "teaparty people are white males over 45" (poll says 18% are this and married) -- so, 82% are NOT white males over 45 --- http://www.cnbc.com/id/36549470 Media MisRepresentation - RHP

Poll Indicates Plurality Of Americans Views Closer To Tea Party Reformers Than To Elected Worthless Politicians In Congress

In a real media - one that didn't follow in the footsteps of the political parties on all important issues - for decades ------ would be ALL OVER THIS STORY's results. Instead of the Tea Party being `zealots' & out of touch at that (as portrayed by our pussy whipped media) -- they - the Tea Party - is actually the MAINSTREAM views that the media somehow misses day in and day out. Month in and month out. Year in and Year out. Decade In and Decade Out. -- Please take the time to be informed what the real views of America are -- http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/general_politics/march_2010/most_say_tea_party_has_better_understanding_of_issues_than_congress
