Americans love an excuse for a grand party, and this isn't a bad excuse at all during these times.

If you can't beat them, join them. Please look at MSNBC with a different perspective. Mr. Olberman uses the word "Goddamned" in the same sentence connected to President Obama. Not flattering, and even more important that it is beyond the top- in fact, clearly beyond the pale and then Mr. Rockefeller cites MSNBC as on par, and equally as guilty of hate as Fox or Limbaugh in his senatorial, lawmaking view.
Fairness dictates that both sides have their wings clipped, but just who is in charge of fairness? Take care with this new strategy and please don't confuse tactics with strategy. Olberman and others are tactical in my view. Should low ratings shows dominate the dominant news sources? Or should low rated shows be categorized as marginal? If marginal, then treat them as marginal.
Do it with a Katie wink, and mayhaps save yourselves.
The problem with conservatives has always been seeing the obvious and responding. Why not try a little subtlety?

I didn't hear it.
I didn't hear or see the specific headline charges in Dana's video, either.
Like everyone else, I did hear a cacophony indistinguishable as to language but readily available to interpretating emotional states.
Again, I am reminded of my ancient friend, Pericles, after a long day enduring the madman, taking his hand in his own and leading the poor soul safely and sanely home.
The question is always to be or not to be.
Be, and eschew to be.

History was made during the American Revolution, but don't forget the bloodbath against those Tories who relished in their own wit and epithets against the butterflies of their time.
Watching this historical Kodachrome moment captivated me into our moment; our present and ongoing Kodachrome moment- the beauty of our own butterflies wafting in the wind.
I see many butterflies

By the end of the American Revolution the Tories were either dead or shipped back to wherever they came from.

The arts shift begins with something like the fractal flight of butterflies.
I have been reflecting lately how the MSM- those once great names I grew up with: ABC, CBS, NBC, WP, NYT's, Newsweek, Time and other later comers such as CNN gave voice to American traditions warts and all. The Huntley and Brinkleys and Cronkites who would never call blacks, hispanics, or even white Americans "C_cksuckers" on national television. Such an epithet would never have entered their minds but today, the media assemblage takes sordid pleasure in calling Americans, well, the majority of Americans just that.
The Tea Party, to its eternal credit, simply ignored and makes light of such vulgar namecalling. For those of you history buffs, the Tories regularly cast similar aspersions about Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, Benjamin Franklin and their American patriots until the American Revolution won.
