I believe their conspicuous absence is driven by the fact that main stream media have been forced to cover some of the failures attributable to implementation of the liberal agenda. Don't forget, today most people confuse being liberal with being a Dem. Most Democrats of the Reagan era were merely liberal conservatives, happy to govern from the middle left. After Bill and Hill came to town, it became fashionable for the loons to come out of the closet. But, I digress.

Not that the main stream media are landing on the string of scandals like they should but, at least they are covering some of them. The Washington Post listed their top 10 lies of 2013 a couple of days ago;
Top 10 Lies:

1) “If you like your healthcare plan you can keep it.” Obama

2) Obama’s kids are protected by armed guards at school. Well, the problem is…they are. WaPo says this is a lie, but they have to twist and turn to make it so.3) “Capitol Hill janitors just got a pay cut.” Obama again, demagogue-in-chief.

4) Clinton denied security for Libya personnel with her signature on a cable. This had an auto-signature on it. So either it was signed by her, or she’s putting out cables with her signature that she knows nothing about. Lie, okay fine. Incompetant? You bet.

5) “The day after Benghazi happened, I acknowledged that this was an act of terrorism.” Obama. What a liar.

6) “70 cents of every dollar spent on food stamps goes to bureaucrats.” This is Michelle Bachman. I’m unimpressed by her – this was a stupid mistake.

7) “I opposed the invasion of Iraq.” John Kerry. What a liar. Luuuuuuuurrrrch.

8) “Democrats took $50 billion from overcharging students on college loans and used it to pay for Obamacare” What’s interesting about this lie is that I had not heard it. I guess 4 out of 10 biggest lies from the Obama administration was as much as WaPo could bear.

9) “A state investigation said Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli should have been prosecuted.” Again – has anyone heard this? Does this really rise to one of the top 10 biggest of the year?

10) “Obama is closing the U.S. Embassy in the Vatican” These last three were reaching. I mean, sure – lies. But top 10 biggest? I doubt it.

When one considers how much political hay the same liberal press made of the mostly invented flaws of Mitt Romney during the last presidential campaign, the immense power media has over the masses becomes self evident. As far as I'm concerned, Romney had only one small piece of baggage (RomneyCare) and one itsy bitsy little off the cuff remark (47 percent will vote for Obama no matter what) for the press to work with. But this, none the less, seemed to be quite enough to do the trick. In my mind, the Benghazi scandal totally eclipsed the trumped up media blitz attributable to Romney's mostly invented shortfalls. The point is, Dems normally get a pass for just about ever thing while, Republicans are scrutinized until every flinch is deemed to be somehow malevolent.

When substance is lacking, as it normally is, the tone and delivery of 'cooked news' substitutes for ethical journalism. Remember the doctored Zimmerman tape released by MSNBC? I get fired up when I hear lies coming at me on the news. Not so with most it seems, they'd rather be lied to. In the end, the truth is still the truth. So, once the hyperbole and propaganda are strained out of current liberal drivel, all the 'message makers' out there from the left are revealed to be nothing more than idealistic zealots willing to put on a con to sell their false religion. (Ironically, most or their base are far from true believers, every last one of them bought and paid for with your tax dollars and mostly concerned with what they get in return for their vote.) In short however, the only reason the Obama approval rating is suffering right now, is because those who are led around by their noses by the 'recently awakened' liberal media, are getting a taste of the truth for the first time. If the media had the integrity to really do their job, Obama and the left would be toast. Fox comes the closest but, be not deceived, there are a number of liberals in the Fox fold, and they aren't taking many prisoners. The world is coming apart at the seams and the US is asleep at the wheel, totally consumed with the liberal redefinition of morality. The courts are literally inundated with issues involving gay rights, global warming propaganda and wide open immigration regulations. At least Fox does provide a forum for conservatives to debate liberals for all to see. Conservatives probably need to be a little less gracious in my view. If they want to get the truth out they need to quit letting liberals define their arguments as if conservatives are too stupid to see the scope of the issues at hand.

Meanwhile, conservatives like guides on a white water rafting trip coming up on a class 5 event are thinking, the liberal party hats are about to come flying off. That might be a comforting thought if they were not unfortunately in the same boat (ship of state) with them. The whole mess could be straightened out immediately if law makers and media were to put country ahead of party and the liberal agenda.
