Of coarse....



Fast & Furious... A little barking trying to blame it on Republican gun store owners and then silence.

Benghazi.... they talked about Fox News hyping it, while blaming it on a video and then silence.

IRS targeting Conservatives.... Spin to blame Conservative groups because they are the Taliban terrorist in the USA and then silence.

NSA spying and the Whistleblowers..... Said it was a witch hunt and that all Presidents have done the same with new technology. Snowden is a traitor and then silence.

Now with ACA.... First the groups getting special privileges not to have a mandate put on them(its for the children) more and more want no part of it, but the Progressive media silences that quickly.
Here it is, drowning in it's own crap. A few words about it and now it is anything but ACA and what is the latest fix or wound. They are praising more kicking cans. this is a 1/6th of our economy.

One minute, if that, about the 39 Democrats and a political move they want to call saving face.
Then off to other topics quickly.... Batman in San Fran., Mariah Carry on X-mas, Colorado Pot, The lives of the reporter, Gay Marriage, drinking coffee, game shows

The 'Progressive Media' is no different than Pravda and Izvestija in Russia during the Soviet era. It's propaganda, pure and simple.

They probably refer to their consumers as mushrooms - simple plants kept perpetually in the dark.

Yeah, just like it blacked out all the coverage that Obama was born in Kenya...

RWNJs, please be honest. With yourselves, at least.

With all these "horrible" accusations being tossed out by Republicans, ask yourselves why it is that Issa and that House investigating committee hasn't done something about this outrageous scandal. How come they just keep throwing out insulting allegations instead of taking action? Where are the indictments and charges? Surely such horrendously criminal behavior on the part of the president would lead directly to serious legal action.

But it hasn't.

So, you have limited alternatives.

1) Issa and the House GOP majority are a bunch of dawdling nincompoops who couldn't properly handle a case of jaywalking.

2) Obama and his cabinet are supremely adept manipulators who can convince anyone of anything, no matter how much they hate it. Just like they've done with Obamacare, for instance.

3) It's all a bunch of political hot air, meant to rally the "base." After all, the one definite point of consensus among the right is blind hatred of the president, and the "base" eagerly swallows any insult tossed out to them like red meat.

Your choice.

I choose 1) or 2). Possibly both.

Are you SERIOUS? What "media" are you watching or reading? How can you possibly be missing the CONSTANT reporting in re ACA? How about that FALSE report CBS 60 Minutes reported on Benghazi? I watch and read liberal media mostly and I feel like I could recite reporting on all of the things you mentioned BECAUSE I've heard so much about those stories.

Are you trying to convince us that we, as a country, are ignorant of those issues because nobody is reporting on them? Dear god! Step back and think a minute before you write.

3) for sure!

Seems there are so many people out there who crave the "red meat" of HATRED. I've never seen so many haters. Obama certainly seems to be at the top of their list of HATES, and also they clearly hate poor people, liberals, and just large groups of people who are their fellow citizens!

And then wonder why no one wants to vote for their party. Isolate enough groups and eventually they are stuck with the nut jobs and no one wants to get near them.
