Don't you love the media's portrayal of the defeat of S.1639?

Question

It's all about constituent anger over the inability of Congress to "solve" this problem, while in reality the constituents wanted this bill to die. It was a whopper of a bad bill, but you'd never know it reading the news.

You'd think at least one "journalist" would make a story out of the grass roots action responsible for killing this bill. It's one hell of a story. Talk about David and Goliath.

Answer 1

The only reason it died is because of great people such as you people who called,faxed,and emailed your politicians in opposition.Great job people.We defeated corporate America and powerful lobby groups.Oh and corrupt politicians.

Answer 2

The media are scum mongers- If reporters knew about an ambush to U.S. forces, they wouldn't say anything so they would have a story- talk about your "journalistic integrity". Meh, the media is what keeps the world frightened and as smart as a 12 year old.

Answer 3

The liberal media keeps saying that the majority of the people wanted something done,what they fail to mention is that the majority of the people wanted the bill dead,even Bush keeps harping on the american people,even his small brain should admit that it was the people that spoke out in anger against the bill
