The Fox-Romney News Network
Folks... to reiterate what I've been pointing out all along... Fox News is clearly in the Romney camp.
Did any of you happen to catch all three Sunday morning news/interview programs this morning? If so, you witnessed Fox and NBC making the case for Romney while ABC News actually fulfilled the proclaimed "This Week" mission of providing fair and balanced coverage of the ongoing Republican primaries and particularly the Romney vs. Gingrich story.
Over at Fox News you had Chris Wallace interviewing Newt as if he were a representative of the Romney campaign - complete with wasting most of the interview on the whole "ghetto" nonsense which video and transcripts support Gingrich on!
Oh... and then after the interview it was of course time for "the panel," where Brit Hume continued his months-long habit of portraying Romney as the inevitable GOP... with the "tone" clearly being that Romney should be the nominee.
(*SMIRK*)
(Oh... and need I continue by highlighting Juan Williams' same-ol', same-ol' talking points?)
Hey... folks... were you aware that last night Herman Cain formally endorsed Newt Gingrich?
Well... while FNS did in fact show a clip while "mentioning" the nod, it wasn't a topic of major discussion... indeed, it was basically ignored... quickly swept under the rug.
As to yesterday's Sarah Palin Facebook posting slamming Romney and his GOP Establishment allies...
(*SMIRK*)
Unless I just missed it... NOT A FRIGG'N WORD ABOUT THE PALIN POSTING!
Folks... imagine... imagine if last night Herman Cain had endorsed Mitt Romney rather than Newt Gingrich.
Folks... imagine... imagine if yesterday Sarah Palin had posted a screed slashing and burning the GINGRICH campaign instead of the Romney campaign...
(*PAUSE*)
Folks... com'on... had either - let alone both - of these "alternate realities" happened... well... it would be Cain/Palin coverage 24/7 with nothing else mattering.
(*SHRUG*)
Folks... again... the common denominator here is that "the fix is in" - or at last the fix is intended to be in.
Over at NBC it was "conservative" panelist George Will lambasting Gingrich... with "conservative" guest panelist Laura Ingraham spouting out "wisdom" such as... (and I'm paraphrasing here)... "Gingrich shouldn't "whine" about Romney lying... even "if" Romney is lying."
(*SNORT*)
Folks... what alternate reality are we living in when Fox is right there with NBC is bashing Newt Gingrich while ABC News is the voice of reason and fairness?!
Folks... how screwed up is it that instead of being able to rely upon Fox News for "fair and balanced" coverage of the Republican primaries we have to rely upon CNN and the Washington frigg'n Post for "outing" one Romney lie after another?
Folks... the Republican Establishment that gave us Bob Dole and John McCain and Tom DeLay and Trent Lott... that's the Republican Establishment which wants to give us Mitt Romney.
Folks... who are you gonna believe? Me, Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Palin, Art Laffer, Herman Cain, Michael Reagan, et al...
(*PAUSE*)
...or the Republican Establishment which has time and time again betrayed true conservative ideal and idealists?

As I've said before, MSNBC--the most liberal of all the outlets--is the place to go to see Romney's lies and flip-flops itemized in depth. Of course they are just as tough on the rest of the G.O.P. field. But Romney is their main target, because they assume (rightly, I think) that Romney will be the candidate.
You don't seem to understand the sea change that Obama's election has caused in the thinking of the 1%-ers. They have freaked out and circled their wagon. Romney is one of them. Gingrich is not. Sarah Palin is not. It isn't only about how much money one has; it's also about how one fits into the oligarchic elite jig-saw picture. Romney fits. Gingrich doesn't. The G.O.P. elite uses that portion of the middle-class that they can bamboozle with hot button bluster as a buffer against being ripped out of their mansions and hanged from utility poles one day. They don't like the folks who like Gingrich. Those folks are declasse' and dangerous. People who support Gingrich need to start a third party. The Tea Party is toast. A party can't form around what it's against; it has to be for something.
It just occurred to me what Gingrich is like with regard to the G.O.P. establishment. He's like one of those Third World dictators whom the U.S. uses and then dumps (sometimes with extreme prejudice) after he's no longer useful. Gingrich is Noriega II.
