That made my day.. I am really sure CNN or Fox won't say Democracynow.org exists for any reason.
Have fun go back and watch last weeks coverage. You can just skip the parts you are not interested in.
I like the video of Ka-daffy looking really high and saying that the problem is hallucinogenic drugs in their milk or some such BS. As he send fighter planes in to bomb his people.
Democracynow has a senior producer who is Egyptian and who flew back and walked the walk and spoke the language. He was one of the honoured media where as CNN was beaten and another media reporter was raped.
So if you have not read about Democracynow.org let me say that they will cover things the major corporate media will not.

The government and the corporations are lying, republicans are just a puppet for the top 1%, they do also have there hand in unfortunately our media. they just passed a bill to cut public funding to public newscasting stations in 2013, Really i think, just as many others that Fox news along with cnn, and now msnbc are all controlled somehow by the elite rich so its hard for me to find a factual news outlet where i can get actual non biased news.

Remember we just allowed unlimited spending on political ads meaning money is free speech.
Now it looks like an attempt to curb any free speech that they don't pay for is up for a law.
So the end of affordable speech is here and the extermination of Free Speech is on the way.

Whatever it was Supreme court case I think.. One sec http://www.nytimes.com/2010/01/22/us/politics/22scotus.html
WASHINGTON Overruling two important precedents about the First Amendment rights of corporations, a bitterly divided Supreme Court on Thursday ruled that the government may not ban political spending by corporations in candidate elections.

Justices Anthony M. Kennedy and John Paul Stevens, right.

Dave Bossie, President of Citizens United, spoke to the press following Thursdays Supreme Court decision.
The 5-to-4 decision was a vindication, the majority said, of the First Amendments most basic free speech principle that the government has no business regulating political speech. The dissenters said that allowing corporate money to flood the political marketplace would corrupt democracy.

Really? Sort of like if you don't like the USA leave? LOL I haven't seen that political card played in a long time.. Annoyed at what makes America Great...
Perhaps you should take a break from the media sources.. It's not going to quiet down for a while I will assume.

Thanks for adding that, yes, if you don't like the U.S.A. leave. And the U.S. is not a Democracy and our founders were well aware the danger of Democracy and warned against it, so that is not what made our country great.
Democracy is really bad for 49% of the people

It's legal to spend unlimited amounts and to funnel money to organizations that are not required to say where the money came from. In that way yes it passed.
Remember no one ever voted to approve that corporation are citizens it was quietly accepted on day in Congress.So slowly this class of citizen is becoming immortal and politically empowered to rule over the mortals of flesh and blood.
Back to Surfs and Lords I am assuming.

In all reality before this Democracy, we were pretty much nothing, We are surrounded by animals all trying to accomplish the same goal, survival. I truly believe all this political bs is exactly that bull shit. its just all made up, plants are able to survive for many many generations without democracy, without all the shit we have in our lives.
But on a real level, at least here in the US we are entitled to a voice, and to voice our opinion, if you support republicans, independents or tea baggers its fine. ill just vote against you because that's all i can do.
besides we are all the same, just help each other out.
