I don't know about you people but I am quite sick of the lies in the media
that are allowed to go unchallenged and unidentified by the talking heads
on television and in the press who have Americans believing that "we"
are "giving" Iran "150 Billion" dollars as part of this nuclear arms deal.
This statement has been repeated thousands of times online, on tv,
on radio, and by Presidential candidates in debate forums, yet the
moderators and talk show hosts don't even state the plain fact that
to say so is an entirely non-reality.
It's really scary to know that obvious lies are being told and sit unchallenged.
We are not giving Iran anything. These assets of Iranians were locked down
by America and its allies for no good reason other than to pressure them to
allow inspections of their nuclear programme. It's THEIR MONEY.

Nobody believes it. Some use it to promote their politics though and that is sad.

Not one of the GOP candidates has anything positive to say about what looks increasingly like highly successful diplomacy in the Persian Gulf regarding return of Navy sailors who strayed into Iranian waters and the return of others held by Iran.

It seems like Obama's policy of rewarding good behavior is paying off -- not that the GOP would ever admit that.

Have you just noticed that the "Press" is putting out false information ? They have been making up and editing the news for so long now you can't tell what's true or not.

As Mark Twain said: "If you don't read a newspaper, you are un-informed,
if you do read a newspaper, you are mis-informed !"

Problem all along is Obama admin uses theoretical numbers. They pull them out of the air, thus conflicting amounts. Numbers related to any issue have been imagineered by Obama.


Then we have the wordsmiths who proclaim lies when strict linguistic terminology created to promote the political agenda are not followed.


Cost of the PPACA


Number of uninsured
46 million uninsured, ooops 36 million uninsured


after obamacare according to the CBO, 30 million uninsured


AQ is on the run....oh, not that AQ the other AQ.


ISIS is the JV team.....no, just the isis in Syria in a very specific region.


PPACA will save each family $2,500


the world is a more tranquil place....josh earnest


Shovel ready jobs


57 states


Summer of recovery


Green energy jobs






never monitize the debt....goldman sach tax cheat and head of treasury

To some extent, of course.

Good reading at the link, though.
