They tell me that the Media is Liberal even when they speak the truth. They tell me that the Media is against them. They tell me that they are their own ballanced and neutral arbiter.

They tell even the Media to shut up or we will cut you off. Sure, this did work in prior elections, but it will not work this time becuase they can tell the Netroots to shut up, but we will not stand by silently. Not. This. Time.

We, the Netroots, do not have to wait for the Media to cover the story. We will cover it.

We do not have to have the "facts" spoon feed to us. We will find the facts ourselves.

We do not have to wait for permission. We will grant it to ourselves.

So go ahead. Call me a sexist when I actually supported womens rights. I know where I stand.

Go ahead. Call me racist when I am the Black man that has been struggling for this moment. I know what has really happened.

Go ahead. Call me "Liberal" when I am actually firmly in the masses. I know what a mess the "conservatives" have made.

Go ahead. Keep telling me that I am losing when I am in the lead. I know that we will win because it is our time.

You, who love war, who love money, who love power -- your time is up. You had your chance, but no more, not this time, because it is our time. It is time for all of the people -- all of the people of the United States of America.
