Note: Please read comments as i stand corrected on some points here... ty
Political officials within the Republican national party have voted to block or "sideline" NBC and CNN from hosting any of the 2016 Presidential debates. They claim the stations show too much bias to the Democratic party. This just falls heavily in the lines of government filtering in our media. If the network doesn't go by the guidelines they specify the network will be shut out. There is a project currently under way for a documentary on former first lady Hilary Clinton who has been considering running in 2016 most likely in the Democratic party. This project has been commissioned by CNN. There is also a dramatic mini series under way about the U.S. Senator for NBC. Thing is if it were a mini series and documentary about one of their candidates they would be all over supporting the network. It sickens me that this is just another fact of life and the general public accepts the filtering of media coverage via this corrupt government. Networks will show bias it is just how things are and granted people can choose what network they watch. But I have a feeling that will not be the case in coming years. If they are able to block out the networks who do and don't carry the debates what will be next? Our government is no longer of the people by the people and definitely isn't FOR the people. It has become a government that shields itself from unwanted views and criticism. Yes each party has their own opinions they want to protect and keep intact......why not choose to stand up and continue to point them out rather than hide on only networks that support your opinions?? I post in many venues and I keep an open mind I take criticism without personal offense. I feel it is important to keep an open mind in order to learn and one can never learn too much.We all have our own values and opinions and at the moment we are still free to speak our minds and be whom we choose to be. But in my opinion a single party shutting out specific networks looks more like a situation of monopolizing the media outlets. In business monopolizing to a specific extent is on an edge of legalities, I would like to know why this does not apply to our governing bodies?? If it applies to us it should also apply to those employed by us in OUR government. The governing body as a whole should be in fear of the people not the people afraid of their government. I do not recall any laws or motions being put in asking the government nor any one party to filter what information we are to be "protected" from in order to keep a certain opinion intact. Call me stupid crazy whatever ....in my opinion the government has become rather symbolic of a private cult with a self proclaimed prophet standing on everyone's heads.

"Above all else, the Devil cannot stand to be mocked." - C.S. Lewis ..........
First I would like to take a moment to thank all of those who endanger their lives everyday they go to work to protect the lives of rodeo cowboys. Also I was recently reminded by a fellow Texan we call them bull fighters not clowns so out of respect to their craft I am editing that issue . That being said I will be trying to give views from all sides of this story but I must first admit I love and respect these guys for what they do. The fiasco this has become is beyond ridiculous in my opinion.To give you a quick insight of what has transpired please watch this news clip .....
Now then lets look at the jobs of the bull fighters...Primary of course is to protect the rodeo cowboys when and if they get into a compromising position be it jumping off a bull or being bucked off. Bull fighters have to have agility as well as be able to predict the bulls reactions and patterns. Mind you this is not an easy task and the majority of them do practice constantly they sleep breathe and live rodeo as much as the cowboys do. And they have the utmost respect for and from the ones they are there to protect. The job of Rodeo clown dates back to the early 1900's to my knowledge there hasn't been an incident explode in this nature ever in history. There have been political skits in the past such as in 2011 a George bush mask worn at the same venue,in San Antonio 2008 a Hillary Clinton mask was worn by a black bull fighter ..neither of these skits were blown up in the media. Mind you they all have their own ways and different skits they do in between the events I remember going just to see the skits they were great! Many of them focus on aspects of dealing with the bulls wowing the crowd with a few spotlighted bull fighters showing off their astonishing skills and lack of fear for these bulls they wrangle. Some do political satires usually ripping off a joke at or about the current president. Sometimes even making fun of their buddies the cowboys. But the thing is it is just that all in fun to entertain the crowds and in this case the crowd was roaring with laughter. We have late night talk show hosts who have said and implied much worse than what happened in that ring. Yet I do not see the media buzzing nor do we hear anything about the U.S. Senate or a state president wanting anyone investigated by the secret service for their opinions or comments. In short this man who was simply doing his job has now been banned for life from the Missouri State Fair.
I have to agree with Rush Limbaugh...this is a portion of what he has said on the situation...
""This wasn't a sacrilege; it's a joke, for crying out loud. And presidents are laughed at, and they're poked fun of. Ask George W. Bush. Ask Ronald Reagan. Ask George H. W. Bush. Ask Clinton, for crying out loud.
This burns me. This is outrageous. This is no different than what happened in all those countries that had the cartoons of the prophet and militant Muslims had a cow over it, went nuts. It's exactly what's happening here. What do we have, a president of the United States who is above all this? We have a president who's above criticism, above being mocked, above being laughed at? We have not just a president, we have an entire Democrat political party and the American left which thinks that they are so damn special that they cannot be mocked, they cannot be made fun of.""
(NAACP) issued a statement asking for federal involvement in the case of a rodeo clown who wore an Obama mask and then asked the crowd if they’d like to see Obama run down by a bull.

There are demands that the bull fighters attend sensitivity courses, SERIOUSLY ...they are athletes do you send the Olympic athletes to sensitivity training? NO you expect them to practice and become one with their specialty. If you want to demand someone attend sensitivity courses lets start at the top ...how about our Commander in Chief and his lil minions he appointed ...all of his Czars(who by the way you can read about in one of my previous blogs) ??? How about teaching this state president about actually earning a living ...granted I do not know her background ......but these guys live paycheck to paycheck because they love what they do. And she wants to make an example of him waving the NAACP flags so proudly in the media! GROW UP !!!! I have never seen a group of people cling so tightly to moments ion history and refuse to grow who would rather use the past as a crutch ....you complain about mistreatment and abuse of a "minority" ? And yet you now want to attack a minority for cracking a joke.
Have him investigated by the Secret Service......again I say SERIOUSLY ???? We have military overseas who I am sure could give you a long list of people to investigate which would be so much more useful than hassling a rodeo clown. President of the MRCA (Missouri Rodeo Cowboys Association) forced to resign?? This is going above and beyond any fathomable discipline which would be fitting of the incident. MIND you I do not feel there should be any discipline involved he was doing his job.
Did the crowd enjoy it and laugh...YES...okay check..wait why is he being punished and why are you calling for an investigations well as demanding people step down and or resign? OH YES I REMEMBER ...APPARENTLY Obamaism is a required religion now ...no freedom of speech or of self expression is allowed unless it promotes his awesome power as a self appointed prophet. Lest we forget his lil Koolaiders and Sheeple who were Oh So Personally offended and just had to stir up non sense by ranting about their dislikes online ....well as much as I try to give both sides in this instance I am human and I cant even understand another side of this.......
The one thing I wonder about now is what exactly has recently happened that needed to be hidden from the public that such a small situation has been so blown up to such a disastrous proportion???
Bath salts much???? I swear the government in Missouri has freaking lost it!!!!
But I wont go there just yet ...gathering info for this one ...just a heads up new blogs coming and huge hugs to all my readers !!!!
