The media just can't help themselves it seems. The coverage over the Million Vet March in Washington , D.C. is insulting and demeaning to our military veterans. At the march, many veterans removed the barricades blocking access to the World War II Memorial and then dumped the barricades outside the White House. Conservatives such as Sarah Palin and Ted Cruz spoke to the crowd about the current government shutdown (a false moniker as only 17% of the government is actually shut down). Yet, the mainstream media continues to carry water for Obama and do everything possible to denigrate and cast the veterans and other protestors as insane kooks.
This is clearly evident by the venom continually being spewed by the media against the Tea Party. When the subject is brought up, it's always in the most negative way. Tea Party people are never "concerned citizens" but are "fringe elements" and weirdoes. The most specious charge is that Tea Party people are racists that only became involved in politics due to a black man, Obama, being in the White House, not the fact that our liberties are being eroded and our country is speeding over a fiscal cliff. One man in the protest was carrying a Confederate flag and every news agency focused on that one individual. Did most news stories show aged WWII vets in their wheelchairs moving past the barricades? No, they did not. The image of the Confederate flag bearer was repeated endlessly. CNN anchor Don Lemon raged ad bullied a Tea Party supporter on his tv show for not agreeing with his leftist talking points.

Of course the Progressive Left equates veterans with the T-Party and that's fine with most veterans. When the W.H. cuts off the benefits to the bereaved families of our fallen soldiers and closes access to public veteran memorials, it strengthens and expands the ire toward this administration.
