Obama – There Is Just Too Much Media Out There…It’s Ruining Our Democracy

"And my ability to control the misinformation."

Waaaa Waaaa Waaaa

Imagine if Bush had said this:

[VIDEO AT SITE]

"Meanwhile, you're coming of age in a 24/7 media environment that bombards us with all kinds of content and exposes us to all kinds of arguments, some of which don't rank all that high on the truth meter. With iPods and iPads; Xboxes and PlayStations; information becomes a distraction, a diversion, a form of entertainment, rather than a tool of empowerment. All of this is not only putting new pressures on you; it is putting new pressures on our country and on our democracy."

What he's crying about is the fact that he and his cohorts haven't been as successful as hoped in controlling the flow of information, and how we...his minions...should interpret that information.

Unrestricted access to information tends to subvert and disarm propaganda.

And I concur with your concurrence!

Words fail me when I see, hear, or even think about this person? Just as you think he couldn’t say anything more stupid, more un-American, more socialist, he steps up to the mike and outdoes himself.

And in the meantime, the rectum in Chief is trying to make an end run around Net Neutrality by turning all broadband into a public utility. But we should just cry a river of tears for the Commander in Thief, Director of “spreadin the wealth”.

Hey 0bozo, the XBOX IS a form of entertainment. Given as how 0bozo has sent real unemployment to a super high 17.1%, broke folks find it much much cheaper to play games from their games collection on their XBOX, than go out to restaurants or go see a movie.

hey idiot we’re not a democracy,

astounding that the president does not know what we are nor does he even know what a corps and corpse is.

even more astounding that there are voters out there who actually voted for this bozo, it truly is scary how stupid and dumb many on the left are.

As for the media , well it was them which covered for him and got him elected based on lies and ignorance,

I wonder if this had anything to do with the Wikipedia George Soros update I posted earlier today...already taken down; stating that he and 0zero label ordinary American citens that are patriotic, as terrorists. But that would make me arrogant or paranoid....

He sounds like a old nag.

Obama: “Now you young people quit having fun with your XBox and IPod thingies and get serious about learning about my agenda. And don’t watch Fox New either. Or read those Tea Bagger websites. They’re bad. Stick to the New York Times and NPR. They have the good information.”

This guy never ceases to amaze me. In a very bad way.

That’s one of the major problems with communism and its fascists who like to “spread the wealth around.” It can’t stand up to having the light of truth shined on it.

He lied in the video (or to the Gruardian newspaper in the UK):

"iPods and iPads, Xbox, and Playstation... none of which I know how to work" @ 0:53, yet according to this (Presidential playlist: Obama opens up his iPod) he disclosed his iPod playlist.

Interesting...

But par for the course with this guy.

I heard dissapointment with Zero recently from people I NEVER thought would admit it or even think it, good sign. Though, I really think his approval number should be in the 30’s in all reality.
