Just picking a few stories to review I see problems with what is reported. For example:
Quote:
Rural schools also face severe segregation. In the days of civil rights struggles, small towns and rural areas were seen as the heart of the most intense racism. Of 8.3 million rural white students, 73 percent attend schools that are 80 to100 percent white.
Maybe I'm missing something but most rural school districts have maybe 1 high school and very few lower schools. There are very few blacks live in these rural areas but possibly quite a few Hispanics.
Not sure how a small rural town would segregate their schools when all kids have a limited selection in the schools available and possibly the whole town has very few minority students.
As to the story you pointed out, I tend to think that it is much class division as a reason for segregation than anything. Not as though there is some government plan to keep the paints from mixing on the pallet.
Media fails to do their job to thoroughly vet, probe, delve into, uncover, expose presidential candidate......first time in history.
Media fails to investigate presidential czars, who wield great power regarding policy, who are the most radical this nation has ever encountered.
Dear sanrene,
I take off my hat to your patriotic dedication to expose the evil commies that have the US firmly in their grip. America needs more people like you!
Here's some more than missed:
-Media fails to investigate why the worst person who ever lived hasn't been impeached.
-Media fails to recognize the many patriotic, bible thumping, gun-toting, white guys for their supreme dedication to fight the evil commies in America.
-Evil commies run US government and media.
Forty-seven members of Congress (or 9 percent of all members of the House and Senate) in 2006 were invested in companies that are primarily in the defense sector. The average share price of these corporations today is nearly twice what it was in 2004. Lawmakers’ investments in these contracting firms yielded them between $15.8 million and $62 million in income between 2004 and 2006, through dividends, capital gains, royalties and interest, the Center found.
i think some laws need to be changed.
add these facts, and consider who is getting richer:
The U.S. has recently assigned thousands of troops to seven new bases in Bulgaria and Romania [1], deployed the first foreign troops to Israel in that nation’s history to run an interceptor missile radar facility in the Negev Desert [2], and last week signed a status of forces agreement with Poland for Patriot missiles (to be followed by previously ship-based Aegis Standard Missile-3s interceptors) and U.S. soldiers to be stationed there. The troops will be the first foreign forces based in Poland since the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact in 1991.
From project censored, a little fodder for the masses.

A little repugnant propaganda for the simple and gullible, you mean.
"Obama’s retention of Robert Gates as Secretary of Defense makes Gates the first appointment from an outgoing administration of opposing party to be kept in the position." . . . ?
Duh, does the name George Tennett ring a bell?
So, now, why would the rest of it be worth anything?

Perhaps because George Tenet was the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency and not the Secretary of Defense which was previously held by Donald Rumsfeld?
It becomes more repugnant propaganda when it is misquoted, misunderstood, misread, or miscomprehended, but call me simply gullible.

George Tennett was the Director of the CIA. Appointed by Bill Clinton and kept in the position by George Bush. Duh! Robert Gates is the Secretary of Defense appointed by George Bush and kept in the position by Barack Obama.
