Yahoo is consistently crap, posting articles with misleading titles, omitting vital information, and generally spinning things any way they can to support the statist machine.

+1 My eyes were opened to the media outlets in May 2007 when the big media corps first tried shutting Ron Paul out.

Looks like they are trying to help make the neocons' efforts to co opt the tea party momentum sound real exciting to the sheeple. Like real super duper conservative change we can believe in is about to happen. False left-right paradigm stuff.

No, I haven't lol, but thanks. Maybe some day I will give it another go. It sucked a lot of life out of me and just didn't go viral.

I had just hosted those there in 2007.

Yahoo used to be good. They literally changed in one day, and it was obvious that they had been taken over. Turns out is was the day the hired someone from a major outlet (NYT?) to be in charge of their news content. They have had the same agenda as the MSM ever since.

I posted a link to this article this morning, but I didn't take it as all bad as the OP did here.
Sure they didn't mention Rand et al. but the fact of it is that a lot of grass roots republicans are furious with the big spending bush years and the the bailout was the absolute focus of the big spending republican leaders.
What that article states is true, there is a major backlash against the republican leadership of the last 8 to 20 years. If you think otherwise then you believe the RP republicans running don't have a chance.

I remember that...that really takes me back..the days when we all really thought we would pull it off.

I wish we had a complete listing of everything like that from 2007. I'm sure it's all contained in the archives of this forum....
