He may not be totally right (only time will tell) but I don't think he is a hack. The Feds can't keep spending and printing money without something negative happening.

This is nothing less than the MSM promoting sensationalist nonsense for ratings. Which pretty much reveals how low the media has sunk in this nation.

Using fear? You mean like Pres_ent Obama and his minions telling everyone that we are facing "the biggest crisis since the Great Depression" and that things will only get worse unless we go along with their marxist redistribution scheme? Or their attitude to "never let a good crisis go to waste"?

Everything is a crisis with these guys. Everything is such a huge crisis that bills that quadruple our national debt in order to "fix" the economy cannot even be debated since they need to be passed right now, no questions asked and to hell with the consequences.

But yeah, you're right, a guy who has historically been critical of both major parties and all politicians coming out and saying this translates to "the Repugs use fear as some insane means to convey their messages". Whatever you say pal.

The CONS use fear as their friend, that's a given. If you don't see it than you must be a blind CON.

Dude, they've all been using fear since Ike left office. It's just that the GOP prefers external threats while the Democratic party prefers internal or class-specific threats. That's how they roll.
