HBO's Weekly show - The Newsroom

I've just watched the season finale of HBO's original series The Newsroom. Throughout its run it has been a mixture of handsome men and beautiful women, office romances and an anti-Republican/Tea Party chant throughout.

Jane Fonda, an actress with demonstrated Leftist leanings, portrayed Leona Lansing, CEO of the imaginary Atlantis World Media (AWM), and the parent company of Atlantis Cable News (ACN). Although she was not seen each week, Aaron Sorkin, the show's primary writer, managed to skillfully weave their obvious politial viewss throughout each week's show.   

Jeff Daniels, who I admired with his portrayal of Colonel Joshua Chamberlin in the movie Gettysburg, is the on-air prime-time anchor of the ACN's evening news. His character, Will McAvoy, acting as a mouthpiece of the Left, spewed Sorkin's (and Fonda's) vitriolic dialogue as if it was fact. 

The slick series was fast-moving and the dialogue snappy. The show's platform reflected the Leftist spin of American major media networks today, giving viewers a skewed picture of those who support Tea Party ideals and the conservative agenda of the Republican Party.

I trust viewers, however, sawthrough the charade of what was definitely entertaining yet terribly biased. 

The Patience of the Left

We Americans still don't get it. Communists, leftists and liberals are very patient when it comes to getting their way. It appears there will be a big change in November, 2010 at election time. That's when conservatives and those on the right appear to be headed towards a majority once again. But hold on.

The rise of the grass roots movement known as the Tea Party threatens to split the vote of the right. What do I mean? Well, when somebody runs in-between the Democrats and Republicans as an Independent, they split the vote. It will be the vote on the right that will suffer.

Long ago I encouraged Republican leaders to listen to the Tea Partyers and absorb their anger into the Republican platform. They didn't do it yet I remain hopeful they are not damaged come election day.

The current occupant of the White House does not care one iota about getting reelected. Their agenda is to harm America and our economy and divide our people. The damage will have been done no matter if they are reelected or not. And that's perfectly all right with them.
