It has pretty much been non stop bitching about Obama around here lately. While some of the complaining is justified I think we are all missing the point. Obama and the congress have been more poductive than any administration in decades. I know they didn't go as far as we wanted them to but hey - they did get shit done. We need to start bombarding the media - local (very important!!!!!) and cable asking them to actually report the facts. We can knock on hundreds of doors (I have and still do) but we will never have the reach of the media. Write letters to your local papers, call in to you local TV & radio stations. I am sorry that this isn't much of a diary but the truth of the matter is that we are losing the media war. Everyone blames Obama for this but the Presidency does not have mantle of respect that it used to. His bully pulpit is no longer somethig that can be used as it has been in the past.
Please start working your local media. I think if we start bombarding ABC, CBS, & NBC they will have to start reporting fact instead of this weird fiction and he said/he ssid crap. Thanks for reading & I know my spelling and grammar suck.
