No conservative should stand for this type of government abuse of power...the punishment of unfriendly media. But they will.



Now see what you do there?   You swap out the complaint of "LYING OUT THEIR A$$"  and substitute "because they are unfriendly".   


Yes,  Lying out your @$$ to push one political party's agenda is indeed unfriendly,  but worse,  it is destructive to the nation because it misinforms the people regarding serious matters. 


But you keep trying to make this about "because they are unfriendly"  instead of "BECAUSE THEY ARE A DEADLY THREAT TO THE PROPER OPERATION OF OUR DEMOCRACY."   




Remeber Bill Clinton accused the media of not telling the truth and charactor assasinatiom. Would any of these same conservatives haave welcomed Clinton threatened the same?


The media had to be dragged kicking and screaming to cover even the slightest detail of the ongoing scandal that was the Clinton Administration.    Clinton was guilty as H*ll,  and of course he was going to whine about the tiny amount of coverage the media gave to his scandals.   

Had they treated him as they do Republicans,  he would have gone to prison.

It looks like they've coming under a lot of pressure to start reporting the Clinton fiascos, so let's see what the next week brings.  They can't ignore it forever.

Very true!  And still true to this very minute!

Just checking in to see if NBC was off the air yet since so many took this stuff seriously. What? They are still on the air?

Swell. I'll check back in another 33 pages. Maybe by then they will have their license pulled.

@Frank Cannon Thank you for confirming that I should not take this POTUS seriously.

What's to make fun of? He seems to be going a far better job so far than W and O combined. I have yet to be raped traveling around the country by something Donny did and I have yet to have my healthcare compromised by something Donny did.

So far so good.

Some of the tweets and off the cuff comments are worth making fun of, but my sense of humor stopped developing in middle school.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Their amazingly short memories of the outrage on the right over Obama's misdeeds where the media is concerned is staggering.


I didn't like it when Clinton attacked Talk Radio
I didn't like it when Obama attacked Fox News
I don't like what Trump is doing..

I think they can.  They're just that corrupt, bought and paid for.

But on Tucker Carlson last night, Brit Hume said (I think ... I saw it on Facebook) that this was beginning to backfire on the media and that they were losing a lot of credibility now.

You may not like what you think Trump is doing, but do you know what Trump is actually doing?

As far as I know, Trump tweeted some sort of a warning or what the media call a 'threat.'

I think the 'Media' is digging its own grave now; maybe we should just hand them a shovel.

Thought I'd go back 100 or so pages and visit the actual wording of the 'threat.'  Gotta say, it sounds more like a question.

"“With all of the Fake News coming out of NBC and the Networks, at what point is it appropriate to challenge their License? Bad for country!” Trump tweeted.

I have a first amendment right to say any old thing (and usually do).

But, the president, that’s a different story, apparently he doesn’t have that same right. They, his establishment critics, tell him when he should or should not speak, what he can or cannot say, what tone he should use, where and about whom he can or cannot speak. But, darn it, that man just won’t listen.

What his critics fail to grasp is he wins because he is who he is. Better that than acting like a coached and handled politician. His ‘style’ got him where he is today, and I see no reason he should change.

One, Trump is not 'my guy' in the sense that you mean or imply it.

I like a lot of things he has done and he is no more thuggish than many in the media.  They are just a little bit smoother about hiding it.

I get it that you are a contrarian but you need to work on not being so predictable.

I'm not a fan of the MSM or Talk Radio, however, I don't want the Government yanking them off the air cause they don't like the message. John Adams tried it and he failed.

Relax.  I knew John Adams and you're no John Adams.

Actually, things are imploding all around us.

Hollywood is imploding the the lies and sex scandals coming out now that affects most of Hollywood.  Those who did it and those who covered it up.

The media is beginning to implode.  The implosion will be total if Hillary goes down and it looks like she's going down.

All that they worked for ... Obama, Hillary ... all proven to be frauds and crooks.

They might go back to being fair.

How can I believe you when you tell me that you love me when I know you've been a liar all your life.
