Mainstream Media Functions as the “US Ministry of Propaganda”
After witnessing almost five years of the Obama Administration, there are two observations which have been made on both sides of the political aisle. The same perceptions have also been made by many commentators throughout the alternative news realm about the Mainstream Media.
I. The Obama Administration has demonstrated a level of gross incompetence and willful neglect never before seen in the history of the US Federal Government.
II. The Mainstream Media has never given a president so much cover for so many ongoing governmental debacles and political fiascos.
III. Both major political parties are fully responsible for the ensuing lawlessness demonstrated by the Executive Branch, as well as the presidential usurpation of power of Congress.
Obamacare: The Most Flawed Legislation In US History Passed In Spite Of Its Known, Very Serious Defects
Without question, Obamacare (ACA) is the most flawed piece of major legislation in US history. It is not just inherently defective in many profound ways, it has the potential to bankrupt the nation. Likewise, the healthcare sector may just implode under the weight of the newly imposed governmental inefficiencies, as the citizenry is brought to the point of financial ruin. And yet this president tinkers with the ACA as though it’s his personal plaything.
The ‘Affordable’ ‘Care’ Act, as it turns out, is anything but affordable and has very little to do with care. It was all about enriching the health insurance companies who wrote the bill. The only thing true about its name is that it is an incredible “Act” on the part of this Administration. They “dance and sing” it praises at every turn. They try to “shuck and jive” the injured after every train wreck it has caused since its inception. And the MSM not allows them to get away with it, but enthusiastically colludes in every aspect of this nonstop “smoke and mirrors” performance!
Why has the Mainstream Media carried so much water for this president?
There are several answers to this question, but one of those has more weight than all the rest. Once the MSM made the decision to defend Obama regarding his forged birth certificate, they basically became co-conspirators. Because they knowingly fell down on the job so hard, they left themselves with no choice but to protect him for the rest of his time in high office.
That the MSM is completely complicit concerning the fake birth certificate cannot be argued since the fraudulent document is still posted on the whitehouse.gov website. They have had years to tell the American people that the document was fabricated in so many obvious ways, yet they continue — by their silence — to provide unprecedented cover for an impeachable crime committed in broad daylight … by a constitutional lawyer president, no less!
Mainstream Media Avoids Obama’s Every Misstep and Mistake
The question must be asked: Why else is the MSM going way overboard for this floundering and inept president? Because of the exceptionally permissive agenda which the MSM has advocated for decades. In Barack Obama do they possess a politician who will push every aspect of their planned Permissive Society. Toward that end, both sides of this “devil’s bargain” have implicitly agreed to protect each other to the death.
As the newspapers continue to go bankrupt because of their refusal to print the truth, they have steered a course of even more propaganda printing. That they would rather go down with Obama’s ship rather than disseminate true and accurate information about the true state of the nation is quite inconceivable. However, the day of their comeuppance is fast approaching. As are the fate and vulnerable fortunes of both sides of this devil’s pact. The relentless degradation of civil society simply cannot go on much longer.
The body politic is getting very unhappy with this state of affairs. They are lied to by the government daily. They are lied to by the Mainstream Media with every broadcast and publication. The falsehoods become more egregious and grow in sheer numbers by the hour. The people are finally showing their profound displeasure in the numerous polls which indicate the president’s cratering popularity. Some are now even demanding a new president since the current one has proven to be not only incapable, but also astonishingly resistant to the many fixes that are desperately needed.
Both Obama and the MSM act as though the jobless recovery is right on track!
Especially given the past 5 year performance within the context of a relentless economic recession, has the MSM ignored all of the realities that the rest of us know well. The economy continues to tank, and this Administration pretends all is well. In so doing, they have missed every opportunity to get it right. And the few initiatives they have taken have been monumental failures.
Some historians are now comparing Obama to Herbert Hoover, who inherited the broken economy in the wake of the ’29 stock market crash. However, Hoover was very proactive in attempting to fix the different broken pieces of the national economy. Were it not for the financial sector actively working against him, many of the worst financial and economic aspects of the Great Depression would have been significantly mitigated. Although history has it written that many of Hoover’s actions, and inactions, worsened the national economic woes of the 1930s, he was actually set up for failure by the same forces which seem to support Obama neglectful attitude.
Of course, we never see these comparisons made in the MSM. Nor will we, unless the electorate makes a statement so categorical and uncompromising during the next election cycle that it cannot be misrepresented by the MSM.
Conclusion:
That message is clear: The Obama Administration and its many elected apologists must go, if for no other reason than their sheer incompetence. The dysfunctional enabling and destructive codependency, that currently exist between the Senate and the Executive Branch, must also be dealt a severe electoral blow if this downward spiral is to be slowed down.
As the Fourth Estate, the MSM must also be abandoned since it has stopped functioning as an objective and fact-finding media organ operating in the interest of the people. Clearly, it has been so thoroughly co-opted that it can no longer perform its assumed duty as a “check and balance” on the three branches of government.

Author’s Note:
There are those in Congress who have voiced the sentiment that Barack Hussein Obama must go!
Whether that be accomplished through a formal impeachment and trial by the Senate or a forced resignation, many agree that it is time for him to go.
Because Joe Biden has proven himself to be equally unpresidential and incompetent, many believe he must resign as well. His incessant, major league gaffes have not only embarrassed the USA abroad, but have also made many of his own supporters cringe with disbelief. How could a sitting VP ever conduct an election debate as Biden did in front of a national audience!

Those many elected officials who know the truth about the fraudulent birth certificate are aware that this may be the only way to avoid the constitutional crisis which will eventually surface. Such an unprecedented crisis, it is feared, may otherwise come at a time when there are simply too many political, economic and social problems which demand immediate attention.
