They deem them their worst enemy who tells them the truth .

The primary election has moved with light speed into the category of historic firsts: defiance of historical statistics, legitimate polling results, demographics and the usually dependable predictions of high-profile pundits on both the left and the right.

What is the common denominator? The answer is becoming more apparent with each passing day, with each passing media report. Absent empirical evidence to the contrary (which may or may not be arrived at any time soon – okay, not), the excitement being built up by the media has thus far been principally aimed at the Obama-Huckabee, McCain-Clinton maelstroms, and, taking a wild guess at the upcoming South Carolina outcome: Obama-Thompson.

An effective (but questionable) tool was used for the first time in the election process: user-generated video propelled two unprecedented debates. On July 23, 2007 via You-Tube, candidates from the Democratic Party faced citizens’ questions. There were no journalists, no panelists, and no filters (at least not in the Democratic debate) – just the people’s questions and the candidates’ answers. As The Weekly Standard noted, the YouTube Republican debate was depressing. To add insult to injury, CNN neglected to properly vet their “ordinary” citizens’ agendas.

Additionally, and unforgettably, the Democrats refused to debate on the Fox Network. This inflamed viewers and served to distance constituencies from their candidates, as well as causing doubt amongst voters and drawing mockery from conservatives.

Adding fuel to the information bonfire are the number of Internet blog rolls that have increased like a computer virus with pro, con, undecided, levelheaded and often nonsensical commentaries. One could click on any dot com or dot org and find opinion editorials and/or lectures about every aspect of each candidate, from Hillary Clinton’s hairdo to, well, Mitt Romney’s hairdo and his faith.

Still and all, it remains that the MSM is the principal force driving the results of our national election in much the same way they disburse the daily news: skewed, slanted, inflammatory, and meant to produce specific negative results for conservatives and sane Democrats. Compounding the confusion amidst the radical opinions, the liberal mainstream media, in their standard undignified haste and lack of moral calling, are helter-skelter striking dumb the voters in Primary states, or even striking with purpose the dumb voters. It’s becoming more difficult to tell the difference. Piling on to this idiocy, the Daily Kos has suggested Democrats vote for Mitt Romney in the Michigan primary “because the more Republican candidates we have fighting it out, trashing each other with negative ads and spending tons of money, the better it is for us.” The Kos may unwittingly Cause a result they hadn’t banked on.

The MSM are prematurely birthing a successor to the same person they have painstakingly demonized for eight years -- George W. Bush – and it’s only January.

At the same time, the media, in concert with the Democratic Congress and their voodoo princess Nancy Pelosi (whose collective aim is to dismember the Protect America Act prior to its expiration on February 5, 2008), continue their efforts with sightless resolve to demoralize Americans and curtail or garble warnings issued by security agencies both here and abroad of terrorist uprisings and invasions.

Democrats, strongly supported by the liberal media, portend that those who stand in opposition to them are politicizing issues and are therefore accused of being puppets of the Oval Office. The cloister of Congress has even gone as far as stabbing in the heart official reports (i.e., hard evidence) delivered by Intelligence officials such as Mike McConnell and General David Petraeus in order to obscure the truth. And what was the gratitude shown the General for his devotion to America’s well-being? The wholly unmerited moniker of “General Betray Us” dished out by the low-lifes at MoveOn.org.

Likewise, the media, in turn supported and egged on by this nifty Congress, took perverse glory at any hint of failure on the part of President Bush . This has been particularly so since the invasion of Iraq . They pounce on him at every opportunity like near-sighted Ninja, or as we call it, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Agenda.

These are the same groups and individuals in command of the Republican and Democratic primaries for this presidential election – who think only in the moment and not in the years to come. They are the same groups and individuals who refuse to “carry the can” when it comes to responsible journalism, and are fanatically devoted to the sacrifice of common sense. The most disturbing point is constituents for both political parties might be buying the poison they print.

If voters allow themselves to be swept away by the undertow of the liberal media’s influence to elect a buffoon (or buffooness) as our next Commander in Chief, then “We, the People” deserve the Super-Duper Tuesday results.
