If only CNN had been on the job then

A few years ago (Dec. 2015) the Blaze published an expose about Muslims in the Obama White House, but the link gave me the dreaded 404 message. But I found it at one of those archive sites.

But no scandals for Obama; not a one.

"Purges, blacklists, book banning, mandatory “re-education” and punishment would otherwise sound like a program by the Khmer Rouge, not so-called U.S. “civil rights” organizations. But these events of “Black October” would set in motion a radical shift in our nation’s national security and counter-terrorism policies."

If we just had had a free press during the Obama years. . . Like a CNN watchdog over the presidency like we have now.

United States is 49th in press freedom

We're #49 in World Press Freedom. Canada is #8.  "In the United States, 2014 was marked by judicial harassment of New York Times investigative reporter James Risen in connection with the trial of Jeffrey Sterling, a former CIA officer charged under the Espionage Act with giving him classified information. US journalists are still not protected by a federal shield law that would guarantee their right not to name their sources or reveal other confidential information about their work. Meanwhile, at least 15 journalists were arbitrarily arrested during clashes between police and demonstrators protesting against black teenager Michael Brown’s fatal shooting by a white police officer in Ferguson, Missouri."

Watching today’s news (ABC)

The middle east is in chaos because of the U.S. sloppy pullout; Israel is being attacked; the IRS has computers that mysteriously eat their hard drives; smallpox vials from the 1950s have been found in a government store room; thousands of children from Central America have been made refugees by our policies; and ABC is discussing what George Clooney's future mother-in-law said or didn't say. This is the "free press" we were guaranteed in the First Amendment?

In all Fairness

Nancy Pelosi plans to strip you of your right to hear an alternate view to the Obamedia, and the DBS (Democrat Broadcast System). I don’t think she plans this for the left wing press, however. Today I picked up a copy of The Free Press, published by the Columbus Insitute for Contemporary Journalism, which according to the verso of the cover is “a 501(c)3 nonprofit tax-exempt organization, whose mission is to conduct, sponsor, encourage and support journalistic activity, including research, investigation, writing, publication and distribution of materials that addres contemporary social issues.” That’s a lie, or course, it’s beyond muckraking, in fact, gives that fine 19th century tradition a bad name. Now why is there no call for these rags to be balanced? Is it because no one reads anymore? I picked it up at my local library, which feels a strong need to stock free-circs but not Christian or conservative magazines and books.

I'm a wife, mother, daughter, sister, retiree, Christian, conservative, friend, volunteer, painter, blogger, Lutheran, and an educated female, and there's not one thing in this publication for me! It's pure trash. But I think they should be allowed to publish their demands for impeaching Bush, digging up Columbus to find the original tracks for mass transit that were buried in a conspiracy, lies about an oil shortage, homage to Algore, quotes from Greenpeace, and a whole 2 pages of jokes by Cynthia McKinney, and Obama's inability to escape his race (has anyone but him mentioned it?). Oops. I just saw something I liked. An advertisement about voting with a paper ballot. That would be good.

Freepers, creepers,
Where’d you get those bleepers?
Whoppers, bloopers,
Where’d you get those lies?

Gosh, all mighty
Why y’all up tighty?
Commies, Marxists
Speaking lies to power.
