The media would have done its job and exposed bush jr., the Village Idiot, and the people who supported him.
It is all the neocons' fault we have this mess. All of it. The Afghanistan debacle, the economic situation over the last 20 years, 911, Iraq, the other wars like Syria. TSA feeling up little kids at the airport, the explosion in human/child trafficking, and the demoralization of the American public. Hell add the 'No Child Left Behind' dumbing down of the schools.
All of it went down the drain when the Village Idiot and his ilk were allowed to take power!
PERIOD!
True, but what makes you think the MSM wasn't getting infiltrated by the DS back before GWB? Or before Bill Clinton even?
sure the MSM had operation mockingbird, exposed by the Democrat Congress in the 1970s ironically. But the MSM for the most part at least tried to tell the truth. The MSM didn't know everything also.
I think the media was way to harsh on Nixon, but they weren't any better with Ford, Carter or Clinton. Dan Rather gave Bush Sr. a run for his money in that 1988 interview on the CBS Evening News per Iran Contra. Rather was right to call him out on it. At least the MSM tried to get to the truth sometimes.
The issue here is the MSM was all in on a bush jr win no matter his history.
