It is time to SPEAK OUT!!!

I am SO tired of hearing the media being referred to as the "mainstream media". That title should be reserved for media outlets that are reporting on MAINSTREAM issues. ABC, CBS, and NBC can no longer be counted on to report the news. The news is fact. It happens whether you want it to or not. Media outlets should report those facts and that's it. They should keep their opinon out of it. Unfortunately, these "fringe media outlets" ("fringe" because they are reporting on things that are 2nd, 3rd tier news - or even lower - instead of actual MAINSTREAM issues!!!) are reporting only what fits their POLITICAL agenda. That's not news, that is pure and simple bias. Like I said, the news is FACT - whether you agree with it or not, it happened. That's why it's NEWS. Otherwise, it's called OPINION. I am fine with people having an opinion. What I am not fine with is them disguising it as NEWS.

If you haven't contacted your representatives yet, you had better get on it. If you don't, congress WILL continue to see how fast they can shove their personal agendas down our throats!! INCLUDING controlling media outlets. The "Fairness Doctrine" is going to take the few consertaive voices out there off the air. The next natural step in that evolution is to shut off ANY critics of the liberal left.

The "fringe media" will not just wake up tomorrow and start reporting un-biasly. WE THE PEOPLE have got to get our voices out there. I have always said that failure to vote is a vote FOR whoever ends up winning - because you didn't vote against them, you didn't cancel out someone else's vote FOR them. You gave THEIR vote meaning by not cancelling it out with YOUR vote. That same logic applies to our daily activities. We have to "vote" every day. There is a saying at the carnival: "the LOUDEST CARNY gets the business!!!!" For decades, the liberal left has had the courage to speak out for THEIR interests. We conservative and moderate Americans sat by thinking "we will never have to worry about those radicals taking over our country". Guess what? THEY HAVE!!! Failure to speak out by you and me on EVERY SINGLE ISSUE is a vote AGAINST our freedom!!!

It is time to become an ACTIVIST!! YES, ACTIVE. That means that you have to actually do something. Someone else can't get us out of this hole we are in. It will take ALL of us, working together. Visit your representative. Call them. E-mail them. Locally - you need to call your mayor, your governer, and even stop by the county commissioner's office and speak your mind. WE THE PEOPLE means that change starts from the bottom, NOT from the top!!!! The current government, Republicans and Democrats alike, seem to be ignoring this. They have not forgotten it - they are IGNORING it. Defying it because WE ARE LETTING THEM.

Stop letting them take OUR country. SPEAK UP!!!!
