You just can't get it that the majority of popular and electoral votes were gained by the President.

That doesn't change the fact that Obama is:

1 A glib speaker who can mesmerize the population with his silver tongue.
2 A willing puppet who has no loyalties to any but his backers.
3 One who has no reservations to destroying anything/anyone who opposes him.
4 One who is willing to "sell his soul to the devil" to get the desired ends.

To steal an apt description from a fellow South Carolinian. Thanks just-want-peace.

Bingo. They already control the TV news and newspapers. Once they gain control of the internet and talk radio, we might as well say hello to all-out communism, goodbye to free speech.

Let the ungodly infidels make fun of you, but you are right.

MP, I think Dems and Republicans are just different sides on the same coin. Fox news has a conservative slant, the others networks a liberal slant, but I believe they are both controlled by the same powers that be.

I disagree.

Independent studies have shown that FOX News is centrist or a little right or left of center.

It's just the fact that the other networks are so far left that makes FOX seem to be to the right.

I will, because it is. You repeat the error here. Ad hominem...the last resort of one without a case.

Since when did the First amendment become less important than the Fourth?

Prove that your OP is a violation.

Only since Obama became president and only to sycophants and hypocrites.

Again, you must have no lucid arguments left. Pitiful.

That's what I believe, as well. FOX is a Catholic channel, first & foremost.

And you should know that when you call a liberal a hypocrite, it's an ad-hominem, but when they call you or your pastor a KKK member, it's a well-thought-out opinion.

:laugh:

Thanks for the reminder.

It was just so obvious, I couldn't help myself.

Liberals have to consider the truth as an ad hominem or they couldn't look themselves in the mirror.

An ad hominem is any focus on the individual rather than their points of debate regardless if it is rude, cutting or just statement of fact.

Sorry, but I think a good point has been made.

Folks that complain about the patriot act and support this bad policy are not being consistent.

It leads me back to the question, "What's the difference?"

And the only answer...who's in charge.

The Hitler Legacy

When Adolph Hitler took power in Germany he also took over the media, and he used it to shape a modern, civilized country to his ends. With full control of the national press his propaganda minister Paul Josef Goebbels developed sophisticated and very effective tools of propaganda to control public opinion in Germany, and even in other countries.
He proved that if you repeat a lie often enough in mass media, most people will accept it as the truth.

The Government ran and censored the media. All forms of communication were liable to interference from above and could, and were, heavily censored.

All totalitarian states strictly control the media and broadcasters. Even in modern times, where there is now the internet and international digital broadcasting, dictatorships have found ways to strictly control what the populace watch, download and hear.

Goebbels used all media of education and communications to further Nazi propagandistic aims, instilling in the Germans the concept of their leader as a veritable god.

Bill would give president emergency control of Internet
by Declan McCullagh

Internet companies and civil liberties groups were alarmed this spring when a U.S. Senate bill proposed handing the White House the power to disconnect private-sector computers from the Internet.

They're not much happier about a revised version that aides to Sen. Jay Rockefeller, a West Virginia Democrat, have spent months drafting behind closed doors. CNET News has obtained a copy of the 55-page draft of S.773 (excerpt), which still appears to permit the president to seize temporary control of private-sector networks during a so-called cybersecurity emergency.

The new version would allow the president to "declare a cybersecurity emergency" relating to "non-governmental" computer networks and do what's necessary to respond to the threat. Other sections of the proposal include a federal certification program for "cybersecurity professionals," and a requirement that certain computer systems and networks in the private sector be managed by people who have been awarded that license.

Does anyone really think that politics as usual will turn the tide? It is no longer a matter of debate or diplomacy. The Dems are openly assaulting our liberty, and will cower only from a show of force.

The only thing that should remove "pig man," whoever that is, is the free market. There should be no stopping of expression of opinion either from the left or right by the government. One of our freedoms is the free expression of an opinion and exchange of ideas, no matter what you, I, or anyone else thinks of opinion.

I am kind of surprised to hear you advocating censorship. It kind of reminds me of those on the right side that want the left muted.

Then again, the whole premise of this thread is that there is a difference between the Democrats and Republicans, which is a facade. The real difference is the two parties you all are arguing over born in the pits of hell, and on the other side, the Constitution and Biblical principles.
