May each of you have the heart to conceive, the understanding to direct, and the hand to execute works that will leave the world a little better for your having been here. -- Ronald Reagan

News the Mainstream Media Doesn't See Fit to Print or Tell


There's lots of news not getting reported by the Jurassic Press. They're successful in under and misreporting events that don't fit their pro Statist and anti-Liberty agenda, but this past week and few days there have been stunning omissions.

There's a madman killing people in California. If he were a Conservative, Republican, practicing Christian, the headlines and stories would be about his political or religious affiliations. He has a manifesto praising Leftists and Democrats; a Leftwing whack job. Thus, no mention of that. Usually, right out of the gate the Jurassic Press blames TEA Party members, Rush Limbaugh, or some other Conservative oriented person or group as the perpetrator or reason for the carnage. Turns out never to be true. Michelle Malkin chronicles those:
 "... including the 2009 massacre of three Pittsburgh police officers (which lib journos falsely blamed on Fox News, Glenn Beck and the “heated, apocalyptic rhetoric of the anti-Obama forces”); the 2009 suicide insurance scam/murder hoax of Kentucky census worker Bill Sparkman (which New York magazine falsely blamed on Rush Limbaugh, “conservative media personalities, websites and even members of Congress”); the 2009 Holocaust museum shooting (which MSNBC commentator Joan Walsh blamed on Limbaugh, Bill O’Reilly and yours truly); the 2010 Times Square jihad bomb plot (which Mayor Michael Bloomberg falsely blamed on tea party activists protesting Obamacare); and the 2011 Tucson massacre, which liberals continue to blame on former GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin." Full article here.
Now the Jurassic Press has nary a word to say about the political, Leftist, racist sources and motivations of the murderer. It's not important this time.

There's a history of sex scandals in Washington DC, and when it's a Republican it's top of the fold, lead story, and usually the person is driven from office. Most recently Sen. Bob Menendez (Statist-N.J.) is under fire because of some stuff involving prostitutes. Jurassic Press's response? Nothing to see here, move along. In about the same amount of time this story has been out, Herman Cain had 99 stories about affairs with no sources, only hearsay, and Menendez with lots of sources...well, crickets.

Testimony this week about Benghazi, four dead Americans because of no response for eight hours, it turns out neither Sec of State Clinton nor the President were to be found during that time. They were absent, no one heard from them or got any instructions. This is a tired old charge, but if a Republican were in the White House and there were Americans killed on foreign soil and he was absent, it would be above the fold and headlining every electronic news program. This is not even being reported by any Mainstream Media outlet I can find.

Obama has killed by drones over 2,000 people, but that number is hard to confirm since the "most transparent" administration covers up everything. Leftwing extremist Newsweek/Daily Beast editor Tina Brown finally get's it, and said on alleged "comedian" Bill Maher's show, " I mean, he'd be impeached by now for drones if he was W. Bush."
Not a word about these drone killings in the Jurassic Press, including an American Citizen murdered by him without due process.

"Newsweek" (Nov 2012) and "Foreign Policy" (about three weeks ago) magazines have Obama as the "Second Coming". Alleged comedian Chris Rock says Obama is our Dad and Boss. Jamie Fox called Obama 'our Lord and Savior': "It's like church over here. It's like church in here. First of all, give an honor to God and our lord and savior Barack Obama. Barack Obama..." And remember "Newsweek" editor Evan Thomas a few years ago" He's ( Obama ) sort of God " - June, 2009.

This is the terrifying mindset of the cultural elite and Mainstream Media. If the press doesn't inform the public and only propagandizes for a particular political Party, political and world view, and man-child, how long can freedom last?

MSM Worships, You Don't Get to Decide VII

Army Major Nidal Hasan, Islamofascist jihadist terrorist, and the MSM's response.

Newsweek Editor at Large, Evan Thomas : "I cringe that he's a Muslim. I mean, because it inflames all the fears. I think he's probably just a nut case. But with that label attached to him, it will get the right wing going and it just -- I mean these things are tragic, but that makes it much worse." Was there a backlash against Muslims in this country after 9/11? No. Have there been as many threats against Obama by the "right wing" as were made against Bush? No. Was there violence against Jews by Christians as a result of Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ"? No. Was there right wing violence at either of the protests in DC against ObamaCare? No. (They, unlike violent leftist protests, even picked up their trash.) Was there right wing violence at any of the town hall meetings this past summer? No. Not by right wingnuts anyway; the violence was a couple times when SEIU thugs beat the crap out of a couple middle class citizens. The MSM excuses the violence of leftists and the politically correct protected groups, but do talk about all the potential violence of the wingnuts (the term of endearment of leftists for conservatives).

NPR Statist Judicial Reporter (I was going to say 'court reporter' but they are actually accurate): “It really is tragic that he was a Muslim.”

Statist talk show host (yes there are such people)Stephanie Miller: "George Bush made many people around the world feel like this was a war against Islam by using words like crusade." (He used the term once, Islamofacist apologists were apoplectic and he backed down. He use 'religion of peace lots and lots of times.)

It's Bush's fault thirteen soldiers are dead. Its the way this terrorist thought he was being treated that thirteen people are dead. It's everybody's fault but the guy that did it. This guy pronounced himself a jihadhist and both the FBI and the military knew it and did nothing. He even presented a slide show and paper,“The Koranic World View As It Relates to Muslims in the U.S Military". But the MSM is focusing on everyone else. They are apologists for Islamofasicsm.

He may, said the MSM, be suffering from “pre-traumatic stress,” but had never served combat, and just thought he might be. Good grief.

Obama didn't want us to jump to conclusions. This from a guy that praises Islam and distances himself from Christianity.

ABC’s Martha Raddatz said, “As for the suspect, Nadal Hasan, as one officer's wife told me, ‘I wish his name was Smith.’”

Newsweek’s Evan Thomas (again): “...that he’s a Muslim. I mean, because it inflames all the fears.”

Army Chief of Staff. Gen. George Casey said he feared a “backlash against some of our Muslim soldiers." The Army Chief of Staff main concern is political correctness, not the mission of liberty and security of the military. "I believe it would be an even greater tragedy if our diversity becomes a casualty here."

MSNBC Statist Comentator Ed Shultz: "When somebody's down at the mouth and when somebody is not with the program, why does the military keep him and expect him to do things? Because you don't do that in private business. Well, (voice turning sarcastic) this is the military, well, wait a second now! You know, if they're absolutely our finest and we support them to the max, it would seem to me that there was a chink in the armor somewhere. Right? That's how I feel about it! That the vetting process of the military personnel was, maybe I'm totally wrong on this one, totally off-base and everything else. But, I don't know." Obviously he doesn't know. What a knucklehead.

The MSM's initial response was not so much about the murdered, it was about making excuses for the jihadist's terrorist act. It was their concern that he was Muslim. It was their concern about political correctness.
