These are enlightening and agree with above! Lose-lose, really...

One I see really being emphasized these days? #3

RULE 3: "Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy." Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty. (This happens all the time. Watch how many organizations under attack are blind-sided by seemingly irrelevant arguments that they are then forced to address.)

Personally, I find much to consider in these tough times and wish there wasn't so much focus on points of (highly!!) questionable relevancy.
At least now it's better known exactly why it's happening with such frequency.

Thanks for posting. I hope everyone gets a chance to check out the whole list!

This is news? This is controversal?

There are people that make their living "manipulating" the media, it's called Public Relations.

A politician telling the media only want he wants them to hear??? The horrors of it all.

You're correct. There's nothing wrong with the Obama team attempting to control the media. The problem is when the lapdog media play along.

I watched Anita in the video where she talks about Mao and Mother Teresa - #1 she needed a glass of water, poor thing. I hate speaking in public.

#2 - I'm still not clear on her point about Mao. She said he had everything against him and he still fought, by saying "you fight your battle, I'll fight mine" or words to that effect. Even if she was "kidding" . . .what was she kidding about? It sounded like she was holding him up as an example of someone who kept up the good fight, regardless of the naysayers . . .but he fought for . . . . murder?

I think it was a bad choice.

As to McCain's video . . . that was clearly NOT an endorsement of Mao.

It really has become a 24/7 political network......

Honestly that's almost laughable that some people think every single major network but Fox is a lapdog. I won't laugh because I know your serious, and that's disturbing and I'll let it go. But man............
