The Continual Right Wing Media Conspiracy

It is discouraging half of the country still believes in George Bush’s failed politics. It is difficult to muster hope in the face of this unchanging postulate. Even at the dawn of a feasible new political awakening of America, each day we will be faced with a fifty fifty chance of failure. Could anyone guess the stalemate in Washington only was a reflection of the hard line drawn in the earth of Americans? We the people, or at least fifty percent of us, still will adhere to a failed administration. What does this say about this faction? Are we ignorant? Do we not follow politics? Is it what Tom Brokaw said to David Letterman tonight? “People under the age of 45 still are trying to live their lives under the failed administration of George Bush.” The rest of America has their lives firmly cemented on a foundation built by Bill Clinton, Bush Sr., Ronald Reagan, or Jimmy Carter. How is it that the rest of us have been the ones to suffer through such an epic saga? It is because America has always been about the Baby Boomers. America did not look favorably at Generation X, hence it description. “Slackers” they were called, and only because the Baby Boomer generation would not allow a new generation to take the reins and begin to lead America. They kept the wealth forcing younger Americans to use credit they created. Where did all that credit go? All those billions of dollars went into someone’s pockets, and it certainly wasn’t Generation X or Generation Y. It wasn’t Generation Jihad. We were duped, and we still are being duped. Everyday we get up we face half a nation that believes things are still good. “We are fighting the commies,” (or is it the terrorists?). We not too long ago were paying four dollars for a gallon of gasoline, and oil companies were posting record profits. The presidential election starkly has shown the misgivings mainstream America has about electing a black president, and nowhere could it be more evident than in television media. While a few token broadcasts with reluctance aired joyful celebrations after the announcement Obama had won, the rest showed their anchors either exhausted or disillusioned. Is it that the media conspiracy driven by the extreme right sees for the first time their days truly are numbered? The time of uncensored and unchecked journalism bought as propaganda for a corrupt government is coming to an end? Previous qualifications of art and higher thinking, morality, and ethics will return to the airwaves with a newly revived focus on education. Talent once again will play a role in the performing arts? Spoiled rich children will be forced to find real jobs? No longer will Nancy Grace be able to rely on “Where is Caylee” for two months worth of shallow programming. There is no doubt the news media was dumbfounded, and their coverage reflected this sentiment.
