Welcome to The Barack Obama Show!
Ultimately
You can stretch this adverb pretty far. Obama knows the economy is America’s chief concern. People want to get back to work. They want stocks to rise. They want credit to flow. None of this has much of a connection with education, energy, or health care, except when you use a limitless elastic concept like “ultimately” or “finally” or “at the end of the day.” Like a car salesman who argues that spending extra money on a precious, invisible, perhaps mythical undercoating is ultimately the key to your car retaining its value over the years, Obama will use the economy to upsell you on hundreds of billions of dollars of new spending.
Hard choices. Tough decisions. Sacrifices
Obama loves to talk about how nothing will be easy. It makes him seem like a serious, thoughtful person. Especially when he says it in that rich, resonant voice. The kind of voice that plays God in whimsical comedy fantasy movies, or tells you at the end of the drug commercial, “Ask your doctor.” But he won’t actually call for the average person to give up anything. The hard choices, in the end, amount to things like: Should we get everything we ever wanted tomorrow or grit our teeth, bear down, and wait till the day after tomorrow?
Responsibility. Accountability
These concepts will be applied exclusively to corporate America and those shadowy individuals in the top five percent who knocked the country off course through over leveraging, thanks to artificially low interest rates and profiting from Ponzi schemes and the greater fool theory. They don’t apply to the government, which is doing all of the same things on a much larger scale and continues not to worry about the biggest Ponzi scheme ever created: Social Security.
So now I can’t even watch my favorite shows in peace. I guess it’s only a matter of time before he starts sending me junk email.
Kyle Smith, I’m disappointed! I read all the way to the end anticipating your equivalent of “two thumbs down, way down.” The Barack Obama show needs some new material. You have described the “storylines” accurately and these are tired, tired. I hope other Americans agree, the show needs a wholesale makeover, a new writing team and a new star!
I will do what I can to help the show move to a new studio and expanded hours in a few short years. On the O Network, we can have Oprah at 9, and Obama at 10, 12, 2, 4, and 7-9 p.m. Michelle can star in her own shows, “What not to wear” and “Buff arms can hide a multitude of sins”. Bo Obama can spend some quality time with “the dog whisperer”. At midnight, we can have the daily news highlights of the Obamas and journalists from MSNBC can describe their joy in any terms they choose, be it tingly parts and whoops and hollers, the types of responses frowned upon during prime time.
He’s pre-empting “Lost” and “American Idol”? That will probably hurt his poll numbers more than the runaway spending.
You used the word “spend” – I believe you meant to say “invest” Some college fraternity should start a drinking game – drink a shot every time Obama says “invest” – let’s stimulate the liquor industry people! (Oops – how quaintly sexist of me – sorority girls are invited to drink too)
When he holds a “press conference” it’s just a fraud being a fraud on live TV. Good grief. My sock drawer needs sorting. The dog needs brushing. I’ve got things to do.
If even “conservatives” can’t begin to BELIEVE their eyes and ears and make decisions based on what they already know, I fear they never will get their feet walking where their brains say to go. Stop listening to arsonist and start putting out the fire.
For crying out loud, can we stop extending this fool the benefit of the doubt. Unless I have reason to believe he’s going to resign or actually blow himself up on national TV, you couldn’t pay me enough to get me to watch.
On the few occasions I feel compelled to watch network news these days, I sit with the remote in hand with finger poised over the mute button. I don’t listen to commercials (a great time for reading or knitting) and I don’t listen to anything said by barry soetero.
I already know who he is and what he’s going to say.
He’s going to say it’s George Bush’s fault, he has found a way to write more bouncy checks, michelle’s arms are tough and toned and he won.
He makes me sick.
It bears mentioning that FOX is NOT carrying the President’s indoctrination speech.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090428/ap_en_tv/us_tv_obama
I think I will watch a Star Trek rerun tonight instead of “The One’s” speech. A little closer to reality.
Some great points above. Obama the Keynesian is turning the Untied States of Whatever into an African third-world state. Mmm…does this mean the Democrats will run Hillary in 2012?
I am sooooooo glad that my cable service came with that DVR thingy, I can record anything I want and watch it (without ads) at any time I wish.
Another eruption of Political Flatulance from the BHO will not be one of those things.
Maybe Antiques Raodshow will be on, and then the garden needs tilling.
Good for Fox. I’m not sure why all networks have to cover it anyway. Did all the major networks always cover George Bush? I don’t think so. Plus, haven’t his press conferences been getting fewer and fewer viewers anyway. I think a lot of people, like me, are just tired of seeing this guy.
The many press conferences are a reflection of a hollow man with no soul; he is a selfish narcissist with a Statist streak. His political capital is spent, running on fumes. The 24 hour campaign does not work when one is in the White House.
Get ready for President Obama’s fall from grace. It’s on the horizon.
@6. AThinkingPerson:
Yes, it is quite interesting that FOX would make such a decision. I don’t recall them refusing to broadcast any speeches by the previous President. Any idea why they would change their policy now?
It has been clear for some time that FOX is not a news source – it is a propaganda outlet for big business and moneyed interests. Their refusal to carry this speech is just more sour grapes. Playing to the base is about all the GOP has right now, and that explains quite easily the recent defection of Senator Specter to the Democratic Party as well.
I’m elated that we finally have a President that takes the job seriously.
Peace.
DS
David S: Glad you’re “elated” friend, but for me, I’m “elated” that at least one station said no to TeleBama taking up time to pat himself on the back for his first 100 days. Did Bush require a press conference to mark his 100 days David? I’m thinking not even though his poll numbers were the same at the same point in his Presidency. Might our current commander-in-chief have an ego to feed perhaps? You be sure and DVR it and watch it twice for me won’t you? I know that with our liberal press, his reading from the prompter will be rehashed ad nauseum for the next month so I’ve no doubt I’ll get caught up on how fabulous he believes he is sooner or later. Enjoy David!
So; Now he’s going to apologize to all the illegal aliens and sleeper cells in the U.S?
David S: Just one last comment, why do you feel that Obama feels it so necessary to give a press conference to mark his 100 days when he didn’t feel it that important to address the nation about the Swine Flu (he was on the golf course and let Gibbs field all the questions remember?)? For that matter, why did he choose not to address the nation after the tragedy of the AirForce I flyover of Manhattan even though people were hysterical running through the street? No comment, just more giggles and um, ah, eh’s from Gibbs. Funny how Obama picks and chooses his press conferences isn’t it?
Is it playing to the audience or grand standing on the imaginary presidential press holiday of 100 days in office, or is it that the apology tour comes home? Will we be asked to wait and sacrifice more so that the collective can be hard wired thus making us all equal drones?
Kyle, let us try serious here, and play the media game of grading the president’s performance. Instead of the one way television telling us what to think, pass out the report cards with the red and blue ink.
Paging San Hannity. Your waterboard is ready. You volunteered to bernefit children of brave American troops. Mister Hannity. We have your “misting” prepared. Paging a man of principle. Sean Hannity.
David S. why so down on Fox? most networks don’t run televangelist programs in prime time, and when Bill Graham runs it’s usually one network. Why should preacher Obama be any different for his self-congratulatory 100 day speech?
I’m not interested anymore … it’s the same blathering script. He needs a new speechwriter methinks.
Maybe he should try writing his own?
David S. what makes you think Obama is taking his job seriously? He seems less serious than Bush was.
He should be fired for laughing inappropriately (I heard somewhere that you could do that
)
backatcha: Well I’ll give you points for at least being honest enough to not be asking for Obama when you were paging a “man of principle”. You would have been laughed right out of here.
Go back to your coma.
Obama a taller Chavez.
When Chavez was elected he began frequent TV presentations.
10 years later he rambles on for up to 4 hors at a pop. Drinking coffe, singing songs, reading bed time stories etc.
We need to stop Obama now.
Watch the Obama speech, or watch paint dry? Watch paint dry. In the end you know something useful had been accomplished.
12. David S,
Did you even READ the article that 6. AThinkingPerson linked?
Fox NEWS will cover Obumbler’s self-love speech but the Fox ‘Entertainment’ channel will not and in the article it was stated that they did the same thing before with Bush. Obumbler wanted to be on the Entertainment channel too but Obumbler doesn’t always get what he wants. Waaaah
AThinkingPerson: It bears mentioning that FOX is NOT carrying the President’s indoctrination speech.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090428/ap_en_tv/us_tv_obama
It also bears mention that Fox is nothing more than a conveyor belt for GOP talking points and a soapbox for lunatics. I would expect nothing less from these morons.
Fox isn’t showing it, but Fox News is. There’s no bias there.
Yawn. I think I will simply pass on this. TV? 300 channels and nothing is on. Especially tonight.
But hey, this is what he meant by greater transparency. In other words, he talks alot via the media. Greater transparency doesn’t mean that we actually know more about what is going on through the release of government documents or congressional deliberations etc. It means that we see a lot more of Obama than we ever wanted.
At #12
“Yes, it is quite interesting that FOX would make such a decision. I don’t recall them refusing to broadcast any speeches by the previous President. Any idea why they would change their policy now?”
I have an idea why, how come you don’t, David S? Didn’t you read the excellent piece by Kyle Smith above? Obama has a problem as a communicator. Like Al Gore, he talks to us as if we were idiots and tries to make the same irreconcilable points over and over again. He is boring…dull dull dull. This is going to be more noticeable to his emotion-filled fans as time goes by. Fox is hip to this cool jerk’s jive, and they don’t want to put on a dull speaker and lose revenue. Soon even you may wise up.
Will he have his clothes on or off?
The good Muppet Pastor is looking for a congregation. Can anyone offer some guidance?
I bet he bashes Bush at least one time. How can we believe anything he says?. His cabinet appointments are crooks, liers, and just plain not qualified. He has gone back on his word on just about everything he claimed his administration would not do if elected. This is just a very bad President who does not attempt to be a leader for all Americans. I’ll be watching a movie on cable!
5. Meryl: “Unless I have reason to believe he’s going to resign or actually blow himself up on national TV, you couldn’t pay me enough to get me to watch.”
My sentiments exactly.
Maybe they can start a show where obama is paired up with someone who actually knows what they’re doing & could teach him about real life, Someone like Thomas Sowell.
Or even just a girl scout; even they have more experience in leadership than Barry-O.
Delia: Thanks for pointing out that David S. did not read the link. Poor David is all up-in-arms because there’s one (gasp!) channel not carrying Dear Leader’s indoctrination speech this evening. Apparently one iota of free thought is too much for the Liberals to bear.
Such Sheeple.
This reminds me of the time before cable and the president was on every channel. I picture Eddie Murphy running around saying, “the president is on, the president is on!”
I’m sure there will be plenty of people doing that tonight, especially the American Idol fans!
We can certainly hope the president>>
=========================
Is he really the POTUS or just sitting illegally in the oval office? Hussein has spent about $1 million of American taxpayers’ money on legal fees to prevent cases against his eligibility from even being heard before the judge!!
If he is really eligible to sit as POTUS why doesn’t he just call the governor of Hawaii and ask him to produce Hussein’s birth certificate that Hawaiian officials have claimed to have seen.
Why spend over $1 million and counting of taxpayers money on this issue when if he was really born in the U.S. all he has to do is send an email to the governor of Hawaii and tell the governor to make a copy of Hussein’s birth certificate available to the public?

Kerchner v. Obama: Defendants Make Additional Request for More Time to Respond
Submitted by Phil on Tue, Apr 28, 200925 Comments
Defendants Make Additional Request for More Time to Respond
Mario Apuzzo, attorney for Plaintiffs in Kerchner v. Obama, made note of the Defendant’s second request for a time extension in this case:
Motion to Extend Time to Answer, Move, or Otherwise Respond & Declaration of Counsel has been filed by the defendants. The defendants have already had over two months to answer, move, or otherwise respond. As of the current deadline of May 5th they will have had 75 days from the time they were served to respond. In our opinion, that is an adequate amount of time to answer or move or other wise respond. An objection will be filed to this second request by the defendants for a further extension of time.
As Mr. Apuzzo noted on April 13, the government is always given 60 days by which to respond to any complaint brought against it. On that same date, the federal government requested an additional 15 days by which to respond, making the deadline May 5, 2009 for any motions on their part. Subsequently, per paragraph 10 of the motion, the Defendants have requested an additional 20 days to respond, making the would-be deadline June 1, 2009.
Of the reasons for the time extension request, Assistant US Attorney Elizabeth Pascal mentions that Vice President Dick Cheney and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi have both requested the DOJ to represent them in this matter. Also, per paragraph 8, Attorney Pascal mentions:

35. AThinkingPerson,
Isn’t it telling that the bumbler-in-chief wanted to be on an ‘entertainment’ channel? Gawd forbid he’s not on every channel in the freakin’ world 24/7 when ‘the one’ speaks to the unwashed masses. I’m surprised they don’t telecast him into outerspace just in case some aliens happen to be tuned in.
I think I’ll watch some old home movies with my daughter and have a good cry (yeah, I’m a sap ha-ha).
I’d rather be waterboarded than watch this idiot!
These are all very bad things, dangerous traps to fall into. Except when we’re talking about rigid, unquestioning fealty to a curious, unproven idea from the past — 1931 — known as Keynesian economics.>>
==================
Hussein’s economic and social policies are Marxist period.
He is in the process of turning over controlling interest in Chrysler to the UAW and majority interest in GM to the UAW.
When these two things are done the Federal government and the UAW will have basically total control of both Chrysler and GM. Current stockholders will get zilch, or in the case of GM a 1% ownership interest!!!
Hussein’s mother, Stanley Ann Durham was a communist.
Huseein’s mentor growing up, Frank Martin was a communist.
Hussein’s community organizer and Presidental tactics are based on the rules of Saul Alinsky a communist.
The Communist Party of America endorsed Hussein.
As late as in the 1970s Bill Ayers admitted publicly that he was a communist.
Hussein has opened up relations with the Castro Brothers and Hugo Chavez all communists.
Hussein is a communist and his economic policies are Marxist.
Fortunately, I live in the Pacific time zone. I’ll get home after it’s over.
He isn’t just preempting prime time, he thinks he IS prime time.
After all, when asked to donate something to one of his kids school auctions, he sent along an autographed copy of Rolling Stones mag with his photo on the cover.
Bill Clinton donated a round of golf auctioned off for Chelsea. Thats more like it.
How big is Obama’s ego?
Its growing faster than Americas’ belt line.
It was so much easier for old Joe Stalin, only one TTV channel and it was his any time he wanted it.
John Galt

Quiet, man!
Otherwise we’ll have Ole Joe as prez!
31.Bear
Congregation for the muppet man? Yeah. The Uighurs who are going to be coming in to a neighborhood designated by The Won are gonna need a shepherd.
I have the same reaction to Obambi as I do to either Clinton. If their mouths move, they are lying. They are a total waste of time. I would watch Obambi if someone could dork up his teleprompter speech, which someone else wrote.
Problem???
Two American Idol shows to watch tonight. Which one shall I watch? Hmmmmmmmmm. Hmmmmmmm.
I think I will watch the real one on FOX!
But mudboss, the Idolators will be watching the other.
Anyone else hear what FOX is showing in place of TeleBama’s speech? Apparently they have a series called “Lie To Me” that will air. PERFECT! I’ve never watched the show, but it sounds like a winner to me. So timely!
PS…#47 mudboss: American Idol (the real one not our faux-President-Idol) will air directly after Lie To Me according to my cable directory.
Hey Peace and Kermit,
Wanna play a great drinking game tonight? OK. Peace, you drink everytime BHO looks towards HIS right teleprompter screen, and Kermit, you drink everytime he looks at HIS left one. I’ll drink everytime he says TWO “uhs or “ahs” in a row (if it was for each solitary uh or ah I’d be in a coma before Jon Favreau’s first paragraph left the screen). You guys in?
I got an inside tip that BHO is gonna come out tonight dressed up as Erkel and then as he points to a chart of the S&P500, he’ll look in the camera and say, “Did I do thaaattttt?”
I’d rather clean my basement tonight than listen to the Teleprompter spin his snake-oil. His words mean nothing. His actions are ruining the best nation in world history. I wouldn’t trust him to walk my dog. He’d sell it and say it ran away. I hate cleaning my basement, BTW.
Big brOther is starring in “Lie to me” on all channels at 8PM tonight.
J. Rockford: I’d rather clean my basement too and I don’t even have one!
What ticks me off is how the news is framed, even radio news. It goes to the source, AP and the others, in addition to the Whacked House. They set up every news break as if He is the Oracle from which all things flow. It’s a highly sophisticated, extremely controlling propaganda machine at work. And they’ve succeeded in raising him above criticism, above blame. That’s how facists and statists are set up; Father Stalin and Pol Pot and Mugabe and Castro and Mousselini and Chavez etc. -the cult of the father/savior figure personality who protects and “cares” for you and will liquidate the bad people amongst you.
Just the quantity of air time, never mind his brash arrogance and the way the “news” couches his every word, set him up on a pedestal and imply to the unwitting that he’s sooo important and above it all. “Why, he said this!–OMG, it must be profound! Oh see how he cares!”
You don’t need to listen to tonight–here’s the set up. “Let me be perfectly clear….” (poker face, stern father image..don’t question me.. …(interp: what you’re about to hear is, yes, once again, so profoundly true it’s going to make your head spin!–you may not even understand it, but it must be you, cuz he’s perfectly clear–in fact, he’s just perfect! Sure hope he can straighten out all those people around him for the problems he’s talking about–my, he’s so smart!…) and then his apparently-to-some hypnotic doublespeak, blanket justifications, demonization of straw man opponents, and hard-to-even-believe-is-real arrogant self aggrandizement will come faithfully flooding all over us once again.
The transparency is the glass on your TV screen. The rest is smoke and mirrors.
55.D-wah….you said it. Said it well.
Outstanding points.
As for Barry’s “big shew” tonight, shouldn’t there be a theme song — maybe a tricked up Hail to the Chief — and Ed McMahon style voice over — Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrr’s Barry!
Afterall, he did go on Leno.
Oh Joy, Oh Joy! I get to miss the “Obama Hour” (hope it only goes on THAT long) because I’m meeting like-minded subversives (according to DHS) for beer and barbecue!
What the President fails to realize s that in a country with enough shallow people to elect a cipher like him to the highest office in the land, it’s only going to piss a lot of them off if he keeps showing up when they want to watch “Lost.”
If I’m to watch an episode of “Lie to Me” I would prefer the one with Tim Roth to the less entertaining effort starring Barack Obama.
To David S, I’m certain Fox will carry it on their cable news network. I appreciate that there will be one channel not showing the bloviater in chief and thats the one getting my business tonight.
Kyle, great column.
I hated your review of 300, but your stuff recently has won me back over.
We think Cap and Trade’s bad?–this one’s Knee-cap and trade…
Just got this from our local Tea Party organizers (bless ‘em):
THE SENATE WILL BEGIN HEARING THURSDAY IN REGARDS TO ANMESTY FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS. TAKE ACTION BY GOING TO THIS WEBSITE AND FOLLOW LINKS!!
TELL FEINSTEIN NO!
http://capwiz.com/caps/issues/alert/?alertid=13242436
Wanna bet that nobody asks why his Solicitor General is up before the US Supreme Court this week asking to reverse the right established 25 years in Michigan v Jackson for a criminal suspect to have access to legal counsel? Seems that this administration has determined that it isn’t cost effective for police if a suspect says he wants legal counsel before answering any more questions. The theory is that providing access to counsel for trial is enough.
Maybe you wouldn’t care much one way or another, but now that half the people reading this blog were identified by DHS 2 weeks ago as potential extremists you might start caring. You just might be arrested at the next Tea Party you attend…
“It has been clear for some time that CNN,MSNBC,NBC,ABC,CBS are not news sources – they are a propaganda outlet for BIG GOVERNMENT AND THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY interests. Their refusal to carry BUSH’S SPEECHES DURING HIS PRESIDENCY is just more sour grapes. Playing to the base is about all OBAMA has right now, and that explains quite easily the recent defection of Senator Specter to the Democratic Party as well.”-AThinkingperson
Fixed it for ya.
Think Beavis.
Oh, and then there’s Butthead.
I applaud Fox for refusing to carry this speech. It’s probably somewhat motivated by the partisan nature of the network, but there’s another reason: Obama has been freezing Fox out for questions because their questions embarrass him. It’s sad that only a Conservative network bothers to ask the President any real questions.
How “clear” can Oprompter be?
Try this, from today’s speech earlier on one of his town hall jaunts:
“I have personally asked leadership to pass into law, rules that follow the simple principle: you pay for what you spend. So that government acts like any responsible family does. Want a new program? You’ve got to pay for it. We can’t rest until we restore the fiscal discipline that will keep us from leaving our children with a mountain of debt.”
Can’t you just hear the hollow voice shouting this gibberish?! That’s called adding insult to injury–to the nth. Let’s break this misinformation down:
1. He “personally asked congress”—’wow, he left the holy of holies momentarily to stoop down and talk to real people in the govt–Mt. Olympus must have missed him. I hope those causing this mess listened to you, sir.’
2. “You pay for what you spend”. There you go, it’s YOUR fault–all of you–you people out there, all of you–congress, people, all my subjects!…
3. “So the govt acts like any responsible family does.” Again, detaches himself from the govt.–he’s a separate entity. i.e. above, immune, but your trustworthy friend and just one of the family…
4. “Want a new program?” –putting words in our mouths–straw man again, his favorite trick. Who wants any more programs? What a damned lying presumption, setting us up for more of HIS programs as if we asked for them. This tactic is especially diabolical.
5. “You’ve got to pay for it.” Again, he’s above it all, and it’s your bills, not his, you bad children…(again the stern father who mustn’t be challenged), and be prepared for more needless spending out the wazoo when he rams his programs (or are they ours??–I’m confused now-hmmm) down our throats…
….and finally…..
6. “We can’t rest until we restore the fiscal discipline that will keep us from leaving our children with a mountain of debt.”
I know, unfrikking real. Self righteous lying platitudes up one side and down the other. Makes you want to spit nails. But it’s absolutely nothing new–from a litany of phony, reversed campaign promises to tripling the national debt and a few days later saying he was going to save the day and reduce this terrible debt that was foisted on us…. It’s pathological lying, doublespeak, distractions, obfuscations, straw men fallacies, and what is more he does it with a relish and without the slightest compunction. We’ve got ourselves the real thing, folks. Let’s hope and pray the Constitution and our wonderful people can hold against this onslaught.
How ironic that FOX has decided to show “Lie to Me” in place of “Lie to Us”… Perfect!!
I figured it out. Remember Seinfeld’s “show about nothing?”
GEORGE: It’s about nothing.
JERRY: No story?
GEORGE: No forget the story.
JERRY: You’ve got to have a story.
GEORGE: Who says you gotta have a story? Remember when we were waiting for, for that table in that Chinese restaurant that time? That could be a TV show.
JERRY: And it’s about nothing?
GEORGE: Absolutely nothing.
That’s The Barrack Obama’s Show. He fills the prime time hours with no substance. What about the result of the stimulus? Nothing. What about putting the next generations in debt? Nothing. What about the impact of cap & trade? Nothing. It’s simply about a shallow and narcissistic character named Obama who cares more about Obama than anyone else. This could be what Rahm and Obama discussed:
OBAMA: It’s about nothing.
RAHM: No American people?
OBAMA: No forget the American people.
RAHM: You’ve got to care for American people.
OBAMA: Who says you gotta care for the American people? Remember when I gave Brown a region 1 DVD or when I bow down to King Abdullah? That could be a TV show.
Yup
I think that the left should be aware of the fact that FNC id broadcast the press conference. Not only did Fox News channel broadcast the Obama press conference but they had a variety of political opinions who were heard after the press conference. Alan Colmmes, Bob Beckle, John Kerry and Geraldo Rivera all came on to offer teir opinions. All three are far left wing political hacks, so the idea that the fox news network only airs conservative opinions is flat wrong. Not one of the network news outlets had a conservative reublican on to respond to Obamas press conference, NOT ONE!! You want to talk fairness lets talk fairness. President Obama had a representative of the FOX network sitting in the front row, the representative who followed him throughout the campaign and he refused to allow him to ask a question. Lets really talk fairness, lets give all sides the opportunity to ask questions. Give me a break, the idea that te FOX network decided to not air the Presidents speech on their most profitable night on television does not mean they are partisan. The fact that the left wing media has aired every single request by the Obama administration to ave a press conference is proof that they are trying hard to to garner support for their president now that they refused to do when Reagan was President and Bush was President.
when is someone gonna call Obama out for his disingenuous assertion that “we tried it the conservative way the last 8 years? Can anyone explain how the last eight years resembled fiscal conservatism?????
-From David S. ‘..it is a propaganda outlet for big business and moneyed interests. Their refusal to carry this speech is just more sour grapes…’
Paging David S. David, your, ‘Time to eat crow’ is now available for pickup and consumption.
Ohhh Davey – what happened to ‘Peace’ ‘lil fella?
Apparently foot in mouth-itis, scampering trumps ‘Oh my bad’ and owning up to one’s mistake. Same *hit, different smell oh ignorant one.
Playing the moral high road seems to be difficult when your post is, uhm.. garbage.
There needs to be a shirt made up which reads:
‘I love, fought and bled for my country and all
I got was this Teleprompter-in-Chief’?
Replacing ‘T-i-C’ with ‘Empty suit’? optional..
The next day, after the show was over and the talking points of the info-mercial were snored over, one scene remained clear. The main stream media was attending its own wake.
The white house press corp was spayed and neutered. Whatever happened to real investigative journalism? The GDP dips 6.1% and no state of the economy questions were asked. The MSM has failed us all. “Better a free press than a free government” is an historical footnote.
Nice requiem JED. Sad but true.
Wanna add, though late, I sure hope people realize they better be careful they’re not taken by Fox like Obama-fools are with the MainStain media. Be wary and keep your filters and BS detectors on. It’s better than the others, has some good voices, but it’s money and ratings driven like the others and riding on what’s going on. I think Glenn Beck is the only fearless and fully committed one, and he’ll probably suffer for it, but he has his self promoting to do as well.
It’s like Wikipedia, or Google or Yahoo–so called information sources or facilitators, but all with agendas, and obvious as well as subtle slants–all very left.
Even Hannity, promoting this stupid mixed-message “In the real world they’re shutting Detroit down” union chant, and then, although somewhat naively, co-opting the tea party spirit and message with his coverage and turning it into a media event with him as the centerpoint. We gotta be careful.
“Eternal vigilance is the price of freedom.”
PS–Didn’t you just LOVE seeing the RINO’s getting shot down and prevented from speaking at the Tea Parties?! That was orgasmic! “Off the bus, freeloaders and phony politicians–it’s time to MOVE!”
