Well, if you were on his economic team and was forced to do 6 YEARS worth of work in only 18 months, you'd change your snarky tune there buddy!
[your post:]----The liberal craves the good old days when they controlled the flow of information. They will try to get it back.----

Younger Freepers, she is not kidding. The American people trusted the lying sack of lefty crap and believed that the media was fair and unbiased. Cronkite's signoff line was "That's the way it is!"
The internet exposed the late anchor for the left-wing enemy of freedom that he was. Here's my signoff line to Walter Cronkite and Obama's elfs, "That's the way it WAS!"
That SOB thought he could waltz into the White House, wave his magic finger and poof, everything would be perfect.
Give him a no limit credit card and let him be king. The narcissistic, psychopathic ass is taking the country down with him.
I’m not sure who I detest more, Obama and the people in his administration or the idiot Americans who voted for them!
c. All of the above
The administration whose philosophical source is Ressentiment and they are pitying themselves? What a shock. They will only redouble their efforts to identify scapegoats.
Mmmmm, Mmmmm, Mmmmmommy, everybody’s picking on me!
Laughed right out loud! Then promptly sent it on! Great work!

The Increasingly Self-Pitying 0bama White House
Valerie Jarrett says she looks back wistfully to a time when credible people could put a stamp of reliability on information and opinion: “Walter Cronkite would get on and say the truth, and people believed the media,” she says.

It was said of President Kennedy that he was a happy president. “Happiness, [Kennedy] often said, paraphrasing Aristotle, is the full use of one’s faculties along lines of excellence, and to him the Presidency offered the ideal opportunity to pursue excellence,” Theodore Sorenson wrote in Kennedy. “He liked the job, he thrived on its pressures.”
One doesn’t get that sense with 0bama or his key advisers. In 18 months they appear to have developed deep grievances and an increasing unhappiness and frustration with the duties of governing.
Life in the White House is challenging; anyone who has worked there can testify to that. And Washington, D.C., is certainly an imperfect city, as all are. But the impression Team 0bama is trying to create — that no group has ever faced more challenges, more difficulties, or more hardships — is silly and somewhat pathetic. Politics is the worthiest ambition, wrote John Buchan (the author of JFK’s favorite book, Pilgrim’s Way); it is the greatest and most honorable adventure.
If 0bama and his aides don’t see that or anything like that — if they view politics and governing only through a lens tinted by bitterness, frustration, and resentment — then it is time for them to step aside.
The MSM created, covered up for and elected these miserable crybabies.
The “brilliant” 0b0z0 is nothing but an incompetent communist who takes orders from Soros and his ilk.
I dare the bastard to show his school records.
Hardball Panelist Whines: Townhallers Only Getting News From Limbaugh, Drudge and Fox News
NBC’s Chuck Todd, substitute hosting for Chris Matthews on Monday’s Hardball, invited on Vanity Fair’s Todd Purdum and the Politico’s Jonathan Martin to navel gaze about what ailed the political structure as Todd questioned “Is Washington broke and beyond repair?” Pivoting off a Purdum article, that in part, blamed lobbyists, Martin offered his own explanation as he brought up the typical mainstream media boogeymen of the Drudge Report, Rush Limbaugh and Fox News.
After Todd noted that it’s not just the “lobbying community” causing distress in D.C., that the “media is playing a role here” and “it’s not clear which came first, the polarized Washington or the polarized way that people get information,” Martin buttressed Todd’s point by offering his personal account of a Florida townhall meeting where he claimed voters there were only “listening to Rush Limbaugh,” “reading Drudge” and “watching Fox News.”

Later we found out it was lies and propaganda, and
now we don’t buy your guff.
Old Walter should have hung beside Jane Fonda.
Hey, guys. 2010’s here...and it’s knocking.
Cheers!
LOL.
I think they’re filled with hate, resentment and vindictiveness and they intend to get more than even with the electorate that’s onto their Marxist plans.
It’s the Chicago Way.
All the displays of extravagant arrogance come with the territory in Chicago because nobody ever has to worry about reelection.
Obama just might find it different in the 2012 national election, but maybe the unions, the new acorn, the new black panthers and the devil only knows what else, will come through for him to steal him a second term, God forbid.
Pray for America.
