America then and now

It's now commonplace for our political and media elites to explicitly renounce the principles of justice which the U.S. long led the world in advocating.

    The MSM...

    The main stream media in this country aren't 'journalists', they are 'urinalists'.

    Pissing on what's left of democracy as they pour fuel to the embers.

    Treasonous acts for what I remember of the 'old American Century'.

    So much for the Bushies bring 'accountability' and 'adults' to the White House. It's the 'Blight House' and it's going to take more than a legion of constitutional realists and cleaners to remove the stench and the stain...

    Join me in calling today's 'journalism' what it is: Urinalism!
