Media Translations
Oct 13, 2010 Opinion, Political
A number of different headlines caught my attention today that pointed out the slanted media reporting. As a public service, I’d like to translate a few headlines so they actually report the truth:
#1: Obama agency busts plan to sell rifles to Americans. Translation: Obama is scared that if people are allowed to buy cheap rifles, his government will be attacked. He will do all he can to prevent private firearm ownership, but has to be careful because he knows that if he is honest about his position, he will alienate even more voters.
#2: Council on American-Islamic Relations Launches ‘Islamophobia’ Division. Translation: CAIR, an association intent on the overthrow of the American government, will be attempting to use the freedom of the government system to crush freedom of speech for anyone who disagrees with them. CAIR will continue to demand that people be jailed for saying anything they don’t like. NOTE: If you are going to claim Islam is peaceful, and its “just a few” bad apples, go back under your rock. That’s like me wearing a Nazi SS uniform and claiming I actually like Jews and the rest of Nazism is just “misunderstood.”
#3: School District Settles WebcamGate. Translation: Taxpayers screwed again as working people held responsible for fools in school district. District officials continue on their way, not concerned with reality because they’re not going to be held responsible for their actions.
#4: Biden, Obama’s Traveling Salesman, Makes Hard Sell to Voters. Translation: You’re too stupid to understand government. Vote Democrat because they’re smarter than you.
#5: Obama: 24/7 media makes it hard to focus ‘on the long term’. Translation: You’re stupid. Vote Democrat because they’re smarter than you.
#6: MTV Denies That Obama Telecast Is Political. Translation: You’re stupid. Obama campaigning for Democrats isn’t a campaign appearance because, well, shut up, you’re stupid. Just listen to Obama and vote for Democrats.
#7: The Proof Is In The Numbers: America Is Getting Poorer. Translation: Well, sometimes the headlines are just right.
