Dear media,

95 percent of Americans are getting a tax cut with Obama's budget. So framing this as a tax hike makes you look pretty stupid. And dishonest. And wrong. So stop it.

Hugs and kisses,

kos

2. Media is propaganda, and people are easy to fool
With enough pain, the facts MAY crush the propaganda. I have been shaking my head in disbelief for decades at their success, however. The MSM needs to be overhauled or there is little hope of effective change, IMHO.

3. The only people the media ..
are concerned with are the 5% whose tax rates will return to pre-Bush Tax Cut Mania. The other 95% don't exist.
