Harry Reid and his Senate Democrats Lost 50 to 49

-
If the Harry Reid Democrat Debt-Limit Bill fell in the Senate, would anyone hear it?
-
Roanoke Times, 8-1-11, Pg 1 – 8: Emergency debt-limit deal announced.
-
The RT and their liberal media friends had a wonderful time ranking on the Republican Congress during their debates and votes while passing not one but two (2) extensions of the debt-limit. Not discussed was the voting down of both bills in the Democrat Senate without any consideration or debate. What statesmanship!
-
Then Harry Reid put his bill on the Senate floor for what rightfully was a super-majority 60 vote required for passage of critical and important issues.
BANG it went nowhere! Not even close!
Then the Republicans compromised yet again and stood aside for a simple majority vote.
BANG – killed – 50 to 49 by a Democrat controlled and Reid led Senate!
-
No media coverage of this significant event – didn’t see it on ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, nor any print including a total black-out by the Roanoke Times! So much for the Debt-Limit mis&disinformation! And so much for a fair and balanced major media!
-
We’ve also had a steady liberal drumbeat that the Republican-TeaParty folks were the cause for a drop in the DOW and the coming Credit Rating Downgrade.
-
As of noon today the Senate Democrats, who couldn’t even pass their own Reid Bill, say they will go-along with the Republican-Obama Compromise.
Guess what? The Dow is down 130 today at noon because of a dismal manufacturing report and general malaise in the economy: So much for the DOW-Debt mis&disinformation!

Latest News,  Tues 8-2-11,  Senate Passes the Debt-Ceiling Bill -- and
It's 2:00 PM and the DOW is Down another 168 points --- totally crushing the Obama-Democrat-Media story about the Dow going down because of the Debt-Limit Bill delays.
-
More Latest News, Tues 8-2-11, It's 5:00 PM and the DOW has crashed down minus (-265) through 12,000 down to 11,866.   Would Obama and his Democrat associates and his friends in the media please explain this.   After telling the world that it was NOT raising the Debt Limit that was hitting the markets, here we are with the Debt Limit raised and the markets are almost in free fall!
-
And it’s now clear that the “deal” will not be even close to $4 TRILLION in debt reduction and that will be the major driver of a downgrade in US Credit Ratings in the very near future. So much for all the liberal Credit Rating mis&disinformation!

It is sad that the major media is so committed to the Obama reelection activity that they cannot present even a semblance of fair reporting on major issues of our times.
