The Judas media
By Michael Oberndorf
The badly misnomered "mainstream" media have been outdoing themselves lately in their efforts to bring down capitalist America, as the propaganda machine of the neo-fascist left. The notion that they are even aware of mainstream American thought is a Big Lie, in and of itself. The radical leftists whose agenda they push amount to at most 20 percent of Americans, although calling these traitors American is an insult to the rest of us.
Over the past few weeks, the propaganda machine has worked overtime to make it seem like the miniscule and largely symbolic cuts to the Obama-Soetoro/Reid/Pelosi/Soros budget were on par with the Holocaust or the Turkish Armenian genocide. They uncritically parroted every insane, wild charge, every lie, that any wacko Democrat chose to make, and largely suppressed the truth of the cuts and the so-called "compromise" until after the fact, when the damage had been done. Joseph Goebbels must have been smiling in Hell, seeing how well his lessons have been learned by the present generation of "journalists."
Continuing on, the propaganda masters are out to sell Americans another huge lie: that if they don't let the neo-fascists raise the debt ceiling — again — the world will end. It appears probable that allowing the Democrats and their running dog Republican allies, i.e., the Republican "leadership" and "moderates,"to continue borrowing and spending will pretty much guarantee that the double-dip recession we've been warned about will indeed happen. Though the media are either ignoring it or trying to put a positive spin on it, we, who have to pay for it with middle class wages, are already seeing inflation accelerating at an alarming rate. And what do we get from the media? The radical enviro spin that higher gas prices are getting us to drive less, lowering our phony carbon footprint. And the Obama-Soetoro reaction to $5 a gallon gas? Investigate the people who produce and sell it, rather than change his and the Democrat's policies that have caused the problem in the first place. This "courageous" stance, of course, is trumpeted from the minarets...er...the rooftops by the media, with no mention that if we had been drilling in ANWAR, off California, in the Gulf, and in a zillion other places put off-limits by our phony "environmental" laws, we would not be in this fix.
However, what is reported is not the only sin the neo-fascist propaganda machine is guilty of. What is NOT reported is perhaps even more damaging, since you can't influence or stop what you don't know about. For instance, let's see a show of hands of those out there who were aware of a major economic conference attended by China, Russia, India, Brazil, and South Africa — representing around half the total population of the world — that discussed, in depth:
Let's have one more show of hands: How many of you have heard about the economic conferences that multi-billionaire, sociopathic America-hater, and head neo-fascist, George Soros is putting on? News of these confabs has been sparse in the conservative media, and virtually non-existent in the "mainstream." As many of you already know, George Soros is a committed, unrepentant fascist who got his start "confiscating" the property and belongings of his fellow Jews during the Nazi domination of Europe. He has publicly stated, "The main obstacle to a stable and just world order is the United States..." He brought down the British pound in 1992, making billions in the process, and appears to be out to do the same with the U.S. dollar. And though the CEO of PBS will be in attendance at the Bretton Wood conference (note the oh-so-symbolic location), has anyone heard even a mention of this? You would think that people planning to foment an unprecedented economic disaster that will destroy the lives of millions of poor and middle class people, all over the world, would be something the ever-so-compassionate-and-caring leftist media would be interested in, but apparently not. It seems that, as always, the ends justify the means, and collateral damage only counts when stopping it will hurt the enemies of fascism.
Much as the "mainstream" media hate Christianity and Christians, they seem to have learned at least a little from the Bible. Their imitation of Judas, and the selling out of those who have nurtured them, and made their freedom possible, is near perfect.
