Newspaper Bailout: Obama Now Looks to Pay Off Yet another Democrat Constituency with Your Tax Dollars

The bailouts and the stimulus package have been nothing but Obama paying back his cronies for their political support. Now comes word that Obama will look to do the same with you tax dollars and bail out newspapers.

As if US tax payers have not bailed out enough failing corporations, now Barack Obama says he is open to bailing out newspapers. Government subsidized and therefore newspapers beholden to the state?  Unbelievable. The newspaper industry is part of the old media and going the way of the do do bird, yet Obama looks to keep them running so that the liberal newspaper media can continue to run cover for Democrats. It is not as if the current recession is responsible for the loss of readership of newspapers, they have been failing for years as individuals look to new media to get their news.

Sen. Ben Cardin (D-Md.) has introduced S. 673, the so-called “Newspaper Revitalization Act,” that would give outlets tax deals if they were to restructure as 501(c)(3) corporations. That bill has so far attracted one cosponsor, Cardin’s Maryland colleague Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D).

White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs had played down the possibility of government assistance for news organizations, which have been hit by an economic downturn and dwindling ad revenue.

When will this insane spending by this socialist President stop? “We the People” are you mad? You should be. What is next, will Obama bail out the 8–track tape and beta-max suppliers? He would if they were run by Democrat constituencies. Industries must be allowed to succeed, fail or become obsolete. It is not governments business to bail every failing industry out with our money.

Clean Conservatives and Non-Green Liberals … A Tale of Two Rallies: 9/12 Tea Party and Obama Inauguration

More in the aftermath of the DC Tea Party … From the Gateway Pundit, now this is just plain funny and typical.

A Tale of Two Rallies and the “Clean Conservatives” vs. the mess left after the Obama Inauguration. A picture is worth a thousand words, or a couple hundred thousand pieces of garage and litter in this place. I thought liberals were supposed to be so “green” and environmentally conscience?

Following the 9–12 Tax Tea Party in Washington, DC

Following the Obama Inauguration, Maybe the Libs were waiting for stimulus money to pick up after them for the mess that was left?

Fox News Glenn Beck Gets Free Air Time on CNN … “No More Lies” … Glenn Beck … Glenn Beck

Even after Glenn Beck has left CNN and HLN, Beck is still getting free PR on CNN during a live interview at the 9–12 DC Tea Party. A Glenn Beck chant breaks out, too funny.

How giddy must Beck be these days being on Fox News instead of CNN. Look at that viewership. Think CNN did not learn their lesson from the now infamous Susan Roesgen incident?

The 9/12 Washington, DC Tea Party Rally … What was the Attendance & Why the MSM is Downplaying the Numbers

It was Tea Party Shock and Awe at the 9/12 DC Tea Party. A picture is worth a million Tea Party go’ers. GRID LOCK courtesy of democracy in action and the DC Tea Party.

One thing is for certain … “We the People” made our voice and presence known to Congress and to President Obama as to how we feel about the economy, taxes, deficit and Obamacare. You can no longer avoid the fact that there is a great deal of dissent against your policies … DO YOU HERE US NOW!!! If you don’t Democrats, Republicans, Blue Dogs, Rino’s and Obama … you will receive a pink slip soon.

Does this look like tens of thousands?

In typical fashion the liberal MSM as down played the numbers of actual protesters that descended upon Washington, DC for the 9/12 Washington, DC Tea Party. ABC News is claiming that they never said that there were million, they are stating that there were 60 to 70 thousand. CBS News is reporting a vague tens of thousands. As pointed out by Stop the ACLU, CNN’s report has no number of protesters what so ever. The Washington Post reports tens of thousands as well. Folks, they shut DC down. What does that tell you as to how many people showed?

Sadly the liberal MSM would have you believe that the 9/12 Tax Payer protesters that showed in DC was some how comparable to an Obama rally in MN where The One ran off to instead of facing the music. Would it really kill the MSM to accurately report the dissent against the President that they carry the water for … Yes it obviously would.

H/T: Michelle Malkin: Does this look like tens of thousands?

Once again, just tens of thousands

However the Daily Mail is quoting 2 million.

Up to two million people marched to the U.S. Capitol today, carrying signs with slogans such as “Obamacare makes me sick” as they protested the president’s health care plan and what they say is out-of-control spending.

The line of protesters spread across Pennsylvania Avenue for blocks, all the way to the capitol, according to the Washington Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency.

Michelle Malkin has numerous pics and time saved photos to counteract the nutroot moonbats that claim the pics were doctored. What’s the matter LEFT, afraid of the truth? You should be!

Hot Air asks how big was the crowd with time lapse video. One thing is for certain, the crowd took DC authorities by surprise as the “freedom fighters” descending upon DC caused complete gridlock.

However big it was, it was bigger than expected. From the NYT: “Many came on their own and were not part of an organization or group. But the magnitude of the rally took the authorities by surprise, with throngs of people streaming from the White House to Capitol Hill for more than three hours.”

Tea party Shock and Awe … Washington, DC Tea Party … WOW!!! We the People March on Washington …

You cannot silence “WE THE PEOPLE”

This is about that little document that our Government has forgotten about called the US Constitution.

The Constitution of the United States of America

We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

WOW!!!, h/t Instapundit

THEY’RE HERE!!! … WOW

Welcome to “We the People”

Check out the numerous Tea Party pics here at Prismine.

The Tax Payers March on Washington … we are tired and we are not going to take it any more. If any of you have watched TV coverage of the 9–12 Tea Party in Washington, DC, can I just say wow! God bless the folks that showed up to voice their opinion. They comer from all across America … hey Pelosi and the Dems, still think this is astroturf?

It appears that 100’s of thousands may have ascended upon Washington, DC.

BTW, President Obama escaped to Minnesota. What’s the matter Mr. President, sis you not want to witness the shock and awe of the Tea Party go’ers? Just like the many coward Democrat politicians that were too scared to have town hall meetings to face their constituents, Barack Obama hightailed it out of town so not to witness the beauty of Democracy in action.

You can watch the Tea Party Live on the Internet HERE from 1 to 4.

Make sure you watch on Fox News from 1 – 3 pm ET Saturday, September 12, 2009. Watch here also Fox online, Talk Live HERE.

Ephesians 6:12 – One of the protesters had a sign that appropriately stated the following:

“I thought you wanted to hear a black man speak to you without of teleprompter … ropes and change.:

“We don’t need you to apologize for us. We are proud to be Americans.”

“We want our freedom back.”

Mike Pence, Indiana Congressman

This President and Congress are getting a history lesson. The Government is run by the consent of the people.

We want another health care plan that is based upon freedom.

They should be required to read this, the Constitution of the United States of America

No where is the Constitution can you find the word CZAR!

Doc Thompson, WRVA Radio Talk Show Host, Richmond, VA

To those that work in this building, Your soul belongs to the lord, but your career belongs to me.
