#1 Except you guys hate guns. The right has most of the guns. History will judge this guy as a dipwad.

#2 I'd also quote George W. "Bring it on."

#3 Memory hole indeed. Exactly like 1984. The MSM's latest full court press on Trump's Second Amendment remarks certainly has the look and feel of Orwell's Ministry of Truth. I would feel great relief if someone could prove to me that it is mere paranoia.

But there is CBSABCNBCCNN all on the same message. I didn't watch FOX but I suspect they were in on it too. If all of these organizations were truly independent they would all be doing their own thing and at least a few of them might choose to lead with something else at least once in a while. But they are all doing the same thing. Last night even Entertainment Tonight and Inside Edition lead with Trump and the Second Amendment. They all included Hillary's conclusion that it "proves his temperament makes him unfit" to be president. That's the message, Trump is some kind of a mad man who wants to assassinate his political opponents and get us into a nuclear holocaust.

Could we all calm down a bit?

Entertainment Tonight and Inside Edition, what does that have to do with Hollywood?

All of them on the same page and reading from it totally in sync. And when they slip in the ratings you might think they'd try something different to attract the viewers they are losing but they don't. I'll give TMZ credit. They showed Jon Voight who said it's all being blown out of proportion.

I wish Trump wouldn't give them so much ammunition but it isn't really all that much, is it? The problem is that they all get together to make such a big deal of it and they hammer the public with it constantly. They saturate the airwaves, the newspapers, the cable and the internet with it. They're like a pathetic pack of hounds going after an old, cold trail while the fox goes off in an entirely different direction and gets away from them. And for anybody who notices they have lost all of their credibility. You can't believe a single word from any of them.

What force is it that can compel all of these supposedly independent outlets to sing the same song in the same key at the same time? The Democrat Party? The Republican Party? The Beltway Party? The Inner Party? Soros? Obama? Jarrett? The military/industrial complex? The Trilateral Commission? The Freemasons?

I don't know but it is truly chilling.

#4 #3 They only get away with it because we let them. I haven't watched any liberal channel for anything other than sporting events for more than a decade.

Well, I did watch CNN for a little bit when that Malaysian plane went down, but other than that they've gotten zero ratings in my house.

#5 When there are hit pieces on weather and golf channels, you see how deep the crabgrass is rooted.

As for the ammunition - Trump could renounce all physical possessions and go live in a temple in Tibet, and they would dog pile that Trump mocks poor people and outsourced monks.

#6 How bad? The last waiting room I was in had the TV off.
