As for the other stuff, he still has three years to work. Damn.


No. He doesn't. He has until November for the country to start pulling out of the recession and that " Hope and Change " he touted to start showing up.

If it doesn't, as much as I hate to say it, the Democrats are going to get smoked in the elections.

If/when that happens, he won't be able to get anything done.

People right now feel pretty hopeless. More and more jobs are being lost. High paying jobs are basically non existent. Things are not getting better.

He has three years to work still.

November ain't nothin.

He will continue to work right through it.

They would be worse if we had fell into the depression that was coming if nothing was done so they are better off than they know.

Ummm...he has til November.

With all the " blocking " that the republicans have done so far...do you seriously think he's gonna be able to get anything done if he loses the Democratic Majority in the House and Congress??

If that happens, he can " work " all he wants, but he won't get a damn thing done.

That'll be sad and a waste if it happens but I cannot believe that Americans will be that stupid to give the fools who did this to us "repubs" another shot to kill us off.

Like I said. People feel hopeless.

They aren't seeing any progress. They are still losing their jobs. New jobs aren't being created.

If the Republicans can convince them ( like Obama did with Hope and Change ) that they have a better idea, the people will do exactly what they did to the Republicans a couple of years ago.

A better idea? They got nada...it's SSDD with them except for their "whater it I'm against it", and to answer another post here:

The T-baggers may have started under Paul (who cares) but FOCKS organized it and Beck et.al. stoked it...then recall they lied about the actual 9/12 numbers? Then put out an ad attacking the other networks for not covering it...excuse me? They all covered it...I know all the comedians covered it was well. Go figure.



I have watched it tho~...with the sound muted or course.

Hmmm....

Would a 30 second blurb be considered " covering " the story???

I haven't actually watched a cable news network in a couple of years so I wouldn't know to what extent the others actually had coverage.

Did they have any reporters there doing interviews to find out why people were there??

I didn't say they actually HAVE a better idea.

They just have to convince the sheeple that they DO. It won't be nearly as difficult as you may hope.

Obama didn't really have a better idea. He just managed to tell enough people what they wanted to hear.

MSM IS the enemy.

MSM is slanted. ALL of it is slanted.

MSM is the enemy because it has removed people's desire to think for themselves. They can now just rely on a few personalities to tell them what to think.

I don't why I am laughing it is actually sad.

MSM is not anyone's enemy.

Just like the people who believe Faux's garbage they do it because they want to. Not because someone is force feeding them. They already have the bias in them.

MSM doesn't change that.

I don't watch any cable news stations but get accused of it because I know about Faux's entertainment pretending to be news...lol

Ok. So you know that FOX is entertainment. But yet, you rely on MSNBC or some other source.

But...in your post, you say that people watch what they do and believe what they do " because they want to " and make no mention of the fact that you watch and listen to what you do because YOU want to.

You already have the bias that you have, so therefore, you watch whatever channels agree with your bias and demonize the channels that don't agree with you.

You watch the channels you watch because they consistently tell you that everything is just peachy keen and the government has everything under control. You believe it because you want to believe it.

How is that any better or worse than someone watching FOX??

My only problem with Faux news is that they call it news.

It is a comedy network showing all the ugliness in this country daily and giving it an outlet as if it is valid.

Sadly some folks who want to hear that kind of garbage actually believe it because they want to.

For me all they need to do is stop lying about being a news network and lying about being "fair and balanced" and I have no issues with them.

If they would call themselves the right wing hatred invoking comedy network, they would be more on spot.

The problem, in general, is that there are a whole lot of commentators ( Olbermann, Beck, Hannity, O'Reilly ) that are attempting to pass themselves off as " news " sources.

They aren't. They comment and give their opinions. Nothing more than that.

The sooner people realize that, the better off this country will be.

Because you sez so???

So what.

The only reason you think they are worse than the others is because the others tell you what you want to hear and FOX doesn't.
