The spitter had on John Heilemann of the elite New Yorker magazine, and this ignoramous actually said that the 400 Billion pork laden bill is "Small Potatoes" compared to what the messiah has to worry about, and the outrage of the American people is misplaced..................this is why WE HATE THE MEDIA, they assume us peons don't have a clue what 535 people in this country can do with our tax money !!!!

I have to give Matthews credit. He criticized Osama’s earmarks and spending. Lou Dobbs was very good also. I flip channels at times and even the Libs are ripping the Radical.

400 Billion pork laden bill is "Small Potatoes"

Math check: $400B divided among 100M families in the country is $4k for the average family, more if you just count the families that pay taxes. That's not "small potatoes" for those of us who work for our money.

REMEMBER, as Newsweak(tm) says; ‘we are all Socialist now’, and Socialism states that it is communal money that we are only too glad to donate to the great maternal GOVERNMENT! /sarc

These people don’t care if you agree or disagree, only that you watch the show - more specifically, the ads. That’s how they make their money. You’re being played for a sucker.

If you stop watching that stupid show, you spit in Matthew’s face, help lower the show’s ad revenue, hasten the day the show gets cancelled, won’t get so upset, and will live longer as a result.

I agree. Same goes for their websites. I have been skeptical for a while about freeping polls on liberal media websites precisely for that reason. They get paid for delivering clicks.

I’m not trying to tell you what to do, but why in the world do you watch that crappy channel? And then complain about the coverage?

It's the same con Matthews ran when the sinkmeister was President.
