Sunday Conservative Sermonette: Whitney Huston Dead and Bill Whittle Shares Why We Suck!

Whitney Huston 1963-2012

It's Sunday. CPAC 2012 is over. Conservatives have or are returning home. They are all pumped up. Are they ready to battle on. You betcha! Unfortunately, because of the 24 hour news cycle, the news has little interest in conservative values at the moment and are focused on the death of Singer Whitney Huston at age 48. Even somewhat conservative Fox News is apoplectic in reporting on Huston's death. Our prayers do go out to the Whitney Huston family and close friends.

However, why does the media have such a morbid fascination with the death of entertainers? Maybe because morbid news helps their ratings. Also, have you noticed that in the last couple years, unlike during the GW Bush era, there is lack of the network and cable news reporting on the number of troop deaths? Obviously the media cannot focus on every death. But, is it unreasonable to expect that they should at least focus on the death of liberty and the rights of American citizens?

The CIA's World Fact Book reports that over 2,624,884 people died in the United States in 2011 (not including abortion deaths). If the media had reported on each of these deaths they would have had to cover 4.99 deaths a minutes and there would have been no time to report on the "special people" or events determined to be news worthy. Obviously, we cannot expect the news to be consumed with reporting on death, because death is part of the inevitable life cycle.

Since it is Sunday, here is another CIA reported fact. Fortunately, and in spite of abortions, over 4,331,998 people were born in the U.S. in 2011. The growth of the American population was less than 1% in 2011. And getting lost in the CIA Fact Books revealed that 51.3% of reported nations of the world have a less than a 1% growth rate with some having negative growth rates. Enough with these numbers.

It is appropriate for the networks and cable channels to focus on the living and it would be nice if they focused more on the real threats to the U.S. by other countries, and on the threats to it's citizens by our own Big Government. But then, I must be expecting too much from the media who for the moment has most of its rights to free speech. Which includes the right not to report the truth.

Leaving Whitney Huston and the media behind, below is a much more worthy conservative sermonette by Bill Whittle who in summary says "When you get down to it, all Liberal criticism of Conservatives comes down to "YOU SUCK!" And they're right!" Find out why and be thankful that it it is most worthy to be a conservative:
