The happy happy joy joy response of the wingnut media over Chicago's failed bid for the 2016 Olympics is pretty good proof the right wing has not a patriotic bone in it's aging body.
Clearly, their highly touted and constantly chorused love of America is far outweighed by their hatred for everything Obama.  Their thinly veiled personal prejudices and burgeoning political disappointments grow more transparent every day, as the news of their glee at Chicago's lost Olympics bid so clearly proves.
Bigoted, sore losers would be the best new label for the wingnut media manipulators, especially the radioheads.  But, by the very standard they tried to set during Bush's disastrous tenure,  they should drop any pretense of patriotism, and admit they are loyal to a fading, failed ideology, not to any real American ideals.

Sens. Kent Conrad (D-ND), Blanche Lincoln (D-AR), Tom Carper (D-DE), Bill Nelson (D-FL), and Chairman Max Baucus (D-MT) joined with all the committee's Republicans in defeating the amendment.
Am I just being paranoid again, or does it seem unlikely that so many 'dogs were on the Senate Finance Committee?
How is it that such a preponderance of right-wing (please, don't give me that "centrist" crap) Democrats are installed in these key obstructionist positions?
Call me naive, but it seems as if there's definitely some behind-the-scenes manipulation underway here, when so many members representative  of a fairly small minority of Dems seem to be in positions of influence that abrogate, in many ways, the process that should express the PUBLIC will.
Congressional committees, like Congress as a whole, should represent the whole body, not just conservative parts of it.  And to me, this list seems "stacked" against the public will, because these are lawmakers who are all extremely beholden to conservative corporate contributors, in this case, big insurance.  Is that the very reason they were tapped for this committee?At least Ben Nelson outright admits he's protecting insurance company profits.  So why is he on that committee in the first place?  How did that very non-representative group become entrenched (installed) in the first place? 
They are like a legislative blood clot obstructing the flow of public will.

Beware wingnuts and Republican ideologues, there's a fresh breeze drifting across our tired, huddled nation, yearning to be free..
All along the interstates, and in towns, villages and cities across the nation, roads and bridges are being repaired, potholes are being filled and work on public infrastructure is simply humming.
All due to that "Change" we hoped and voted for.
In less than a year, the evidence of Obama's improved form of government is popping up.  The next time you pass a crew at work on roads, highways or city streets, just remember the word  "Hope."
But don't expect the mainstream media to tout this obvious "change."  The media still belongs to the worst neocons,  and they don't want the public in general to be upbeat about the future, or they might not get their cheap guv'mint back again, if things improve on the economic front.
The blogs may not be reliable, either, due to the proliferation of intentional disinformation and outright deception the 'nuts are promoting on their end of this free medium, but still the truth is there, residing among the posts, comments and cross-talk
