So then what has all of the political liberal progressive movement since the early1900 brought us? If the words have meaning and say what they mean and read what they say. How can the Liberals explain to us why have they use their words as a hypocrite by jumbling their Ivy League legal speak into bending the meaning of a words meaning, in other words lying about it to get their way. And by doing so are losing the respect of the people reading their words spoken. The left leaning expression of Barack Obama has lose all creditability with the people all over the world, who hear him speak. So how can the American media go on pretending that Barack Obama is the Zenith of their own liberal words of wisdom to us the people reading what they say.
We instinctively know when a word is use to mean what is said, so how can the lying continue in the TV Networks News business after they have lost all of their credibility?
The Media is festering in the neighborhood of their own making, and I don't believe anything very important will come out of them who live and play there. Unless of course they start using the words that they are writing, in the right way again.
