I agree. The duty of the fourth estate in a democracy is to be a watch dog of government. They have failed miserably. Everything else followed from that failure.....
I frequently use it. This Great Recession, rooted in the subprime loan disater of bad debt, is almost a carbon copy of the Great Depression which had bad debt at its root too.
same reason that Nancy Pelosi is a commander of an aircraft carrier
same reason the Barney Franks isn't a Navy SEAL..
cause they don't have a clue as to what the job is about and how to even fake it.
Incompetence and resume fraud also come to mind. If TOFUS was in the private sector, he'd have been to human resources to collect his stuff and escorted off the property. He's going to be a national laughing stock and his freak fest supporters should just be ignored as the clown posse they are.
The lawyers finally figured out that the press, at high levels, could be bought. It irritates me to no end when I hear people, even on this site, state we elected our politicians and it’s our fault. The media decides, for the most part, who is electable and who isn’t. The Tea Party is our last, best hope. Hang the lawyers and the msm, as far as I’m concerned. Bill Shakespeare only got it half right, it would seem.
BINGO !!!
He truly believes America is “the Great Satan” .. that’s what his father taught him.
...hence the divot on jobs...
The Old ‘Not Enough’ Excuse (True believers in government spending can never be proved wrong) Victor Davis Hanson
London vs. Olympic Shooting - The city’s mayor decides that children shouldn’t watch the sport.
Perry and Global Warming - Do warmists questioning Gov.Perry really believe in science and math? MUST READ
Some noteworthy articles about politics, foreign or military affairs, IMHO, FReepmail me if you want on or off my list.
R E S P E C T!
Obongo Bozo has no respect for America, American culture, American traditions or the American people!
He has disrespected everything American since long before he began his run for the Presidency.
He is unfit to be a garbage collector, much less President!
Is it 2012 yet?
““They [Republicans] could end up winning in November by distorting the argument,” Alter said in 2006. “But on credibility and the facts, they’ve lost.”
He knows Bamer is going to get creamed. After the landslide tossing this dweeb out this will be the spin.
Thanks for the ping!
Thanks neverdem.
His actual talent is as a dissembler, a circulator of roorbacks formulated by others, and as a dispenser of desinformatsiya.
He's a model Democratic journalist, in other words.
Your statement is weak, in that you appear to believe that their intention was one thing, but their result another. Instead, they may have actually succeeded admirably -- if you can get your mind around that.
It’s George Bush’s fault.

The way to defeat liberals is to NEVER ACCEPT THEIR PREMISE. Once you start arguing on their terms, you’ve lost.
That needs to be repeated and learned over and over.
“Next question?”
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
The next question and the one I would like to ask of Alter is how could he and so many others be so insulated from reality and so WILLFULLY IGNORANT, just plain stupid, idiotic or whatever you want to call it as to think that such a creature as Barrack Hussein Obama would be anything other than a total disaster. These same pathetically deluded types seem to think they can watch MSNBC, a propaganda outlet so absurd as to make Al Sharpton a regular and get the truth whereas Fox News dispenses one hundred percent lies.
They either think “He’s Black, he’s a Democrat, what more do we need to know?”, or they agree with him that this country must be “fundamentally transformed” (destroyed).
