.....Speaking of Fox News, the poor, and the way GOP leaders think, Obama said, [W]e’re going to have to change how our body politic thinks, which means we’re going to have to change how the media reports on these issues.”
Here is the full transcript:
I think that the effort to suggest that the poor are sponges, leeches, don’t want to work, are lazy, are undeserving, got traction. And look, it’s still being propagated. I have to say that if you watch Fox News on a regular basis, it is a constant venue. They will find folks who make me mad. I don’t know where they find them. They’re all like, “I don’t want to work. I just want a free Obama Phone, or whatever.” And that becomes an entire narrative that gets worked up. And very rarely do you hear an interview of a waitress, which is much more typical — who is raising a couple of kids and doing everything right but still can’t pay the bills.
And so, if we’re going to change how Rep. John Boehner (R-OH) and Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) think, we’re going to have to change how our body politic thinks, which means we’re going to have to change how the media reports on these issues, and how people’s impressions of what it’s like to struggle in this economy looks like. And how budgets connect to that. And that’s a hard process because that requires a much broader conversation than typically we have on the nightly news.

If the Congress does not impeach this guy before he can leave office, this nation will DESERVE everything that happens to it from the damage Obama and his administration have done to this nation. Oh, and also throw Valerie Jarrett in prison for at a minimum of 20 years. This is coming largely from her influence.
Hey, I know. Why don’t you promise amnesty to every Latino on the continent that can get his or herself across our border and see how that helps get all those struggling poor folk working again. Schmuck.
FOX should come out with an editorial about how we have to change the way America hating racist scombags are allowed to be President.
Both, but more that they don't care.
“Obama needs to set up a Ministry of Truth to fix this.”
Why bother? He already has one, and they work for him for free. Namely, CBS, MSNBC, NYT, WP, and so on.
I hate this man so much. I can’t even believe how much I hate him. I have never hated anyone like I hate him. He is very bad for my blood pressure. I cannot wait until he is gone. I don’t know if we can survive another year and a half.
Really, who the hell does he think he is??? Why does no one just tell him to STFU??? Just imagine if a conservative said the crap Obama does. But the sheeple media doesn’t seem to realize or care that Obama is trying to eliminate their jobs.
All I can say is FUBO.
And why is a woman raising kids by herself? Where is the father of those kids? Why did she engage in a relationship before the commitment of marriage? Why do we allow easy divorce to rob her children of their father even if there were a marriage? It is not how we report the news that needs to be changed.
He seems to have an unhealthy obsession with Fox News.
If your job doesn’t pay you enough, maybe it is time to try to find a better job.
I assume Obama was describing a single mother. That seems to be the only kind he thinks exist.
I hate him. So much.
Ah, but MINITRUE already exists - in the form of every media outlet who accepts taxpayer funding (CNN/PBS/NPR), or have relatives in the regime (ABC/CBS/NBC) or are such true believers/fellow travelers that no incentive is needed, other than the knowledge of a job well done for The Glorious Cause Of World Socialism (MSNBC/NYT/WAPO/LAT/Gannett/AP/Reuters)...
Why not? He has changed everything else. But that is what the voters put him in office to do.
Yeah, that was pretty much my point, which you obviously got.
I get that people make mistakes (two kids no Dad in the picture apparently), but wallowing in them vs. doing something meaningful about them is two entirely different mindsets.
Go to school, learn a trade, keep your legs together if you don’t like the consequences, lift yourself up by the bootstraps... Do SOMETHING!
Nah, it’s easier to bitch and moan, and then suck uncle sugar’s teat.
Valerie Jarrett has an unhealthy obsession with Fox News.
Obola just does what ValJar tells him on the teleprompter.
” . .It can produce hours of Pravda-type propaganda every night and nobody is going to watch it.”
True, and this is why they must control whats published/said/blogged on the internet, I’m surprised their not farther along already. First step will be to make sure everyone is identified ala facebook/twitter,
You’re right. The “brains” behind the curtain.
They might like to do that but they need you/us because you/us work and pay their taxes.
Their system would collapse within 6 mos.
So while this fascist buffoon still thinks he can destroy the middle class with impugnity, he truth is he cannot.
But he CAN demand that his roadies hate us.
