For the good of America.

Think about it, folks. The main stream media are biased against the left wing politicians. They pretty much ignore the left wing. In favor of the right wing. Blowhards on the right such as Dick Cheney, Newt Gingrich and Rush Limbaugh get the overwhelming amounts of publicity. Because that sets up a debate between President Obama and the far right. In the process, that makes Obama seem as if he’s on the left. Instead of in the middle. Really, Obama is very much at odds with the left wing of his party. But that fact is virtually ignored by the mainstream media. And that results in a distortion in the truth/reality. Obama, for instance, is something of a war-monger. He’s doubled the number of troops in Afghanistan. Where half of the troops are mercenaries. Hired private brigades which cost far more than regular army troops. Much to the disenchantment of the left wing. Also, when it comes to health care, Obama wants a system which keeps some private insurers in the mix. A blend of public and private options. The left wing, and a steadily increasing number of Americans, prefer a single payer system. Run entirely by the government. No private insurers anymore. Once again, the mainstream media makes short shrift of this. Yes, an indication of biased media. Biased against the left. I happen to like Obama. Even though I’m a liberal. Very much a left-winger. I don’t even mind being called a socialist. But believe me, Obama is no socialist. He’s in the middle of the road. Trying to fashion one compromise after another. He’s somewhere between the left and the right. A true politician. Really, trying to get something done. For the good of America. –Jim Broede
