What we are seeing is a brilliant strategy by the GOP to undermine one of our greatest tools in keeping government honest, a free press. What good is a free press if no one will believe it? By sending out Rush, Hannity, O'Reilly, etc. day after day and convincing the American public that the media is wrong and only conservative talk show hosts speak the truth, they are making themselves critic proof.
As I sad, a brilliant strategy. The Soviet Union had TAAS, the GOP has Rush, Hannity, O'Reilly et.al. It's like Zambrano complaing about showboating.
