God!!! Our corporate media sucks [View all]

Watched a few.minutes of cable "news" this morning.

You could actually feel the spin.

Seems the billionaires marching orders are to emphasize that "now is the time, or maybe the chance to find that 'elusive, bipartisan agreement'"

See! All it took were some "state sanctioned" executions of innocent American citizens to bring "both sides" to the "negotiating table".

Sure, Nazi goons assassinated two Americans and beat the shit out of hundreds of men, women and children, but at least "Mein Fuhrer had a phonecall with Governor Walz"...that has to be progress, right?

"Europe is SAVED!!!! Neville Chamberlain and Hitler had a nice conversation". That has to be a "sign of progress", right?

I swear to God! It's like being on the Titanic and expressing "hope" because "at least the iceberg and the ship have agreed to meet".
