I’ve really begun to think Obama is just phoning it in — or the person who scripts the TelePromTer is. Look at today’s speech for the Stimulus 2.0 Jobs Bill.
So far he has:
- Accused the Republicans who brought his bill to the floor in the Senate of “blocking it” — instead of Harry Reid, who actually blocked it.
- Revived the story about the “functionally obsolete bridge” between Ohio and Kentucky, even though there was pretty general recognition that the Brent Spencer Bridge primarily was waiting on Federal approval and was “functionally obsolete” not because it was breaking down, but because it’s too damn small.
- And now it turns out the poor teacher with degrees and all who’s been laid off three times is actually working on a “soft money” position that’s renewed every term, is a Department of Education teaching fellow, and teaches in the local community college as well.
It’s almost as if they don’t even care about the facts any more.
Any more? This administration has never cared about the facts. It has always been about the message, the sound bite. If the truth is inconvenient, they will always ignore it.
Media doesn’t. Why should they?
Media doesn’t. Why should they?
I’d even go so far as to think that’s why they don’t.
They care not for facts. If we had more fair and balanced outlets they might, but they only have competition with FOX and internet bloggers/conservative sites. Most of the sheeple get their news from the MSM, MTV, SNL, Jon Stewart, and cartoons. All they hear is Obama’s views and positions and lies, never any contradiction.
At least he is consistent.
Do you know a secret Mr Martin?
When has Obama ever cared about facts? It’s far beyond not caring. It’s contempt. He doesn’t even care to know that there are facts. They would interfere with the fantasy world he has built inside his head.
More and more people are just shutting off the television when he comes on anyway.
Picky point: Brent Spence Bridge. Perhaps they will add the ‘er’ with federal funds.
You can look up Brent Spence on Wikipedia for more info. Lots of facts there, that some people don’t care about at all.
