What will we name this decade? Let's just never speak of it again (MOANIN' LIBERAL ALERT)
Chicago Tribune ^ | April 14, 2009 | Steve Johnson | Tribune Internet critic

Think about it. Has there been a lousier 10 years in American history? OK, the Civil War, granted. And the Great Depression wasn't so hot, either, the pictures suggest. But this one has been close enough to an all-time bad to merit the kind of willful amnesia that I'm proposing.

You kind of hope this clown is joking but I've heard this "worst of times" crap in all seriousness from a lot of Baby Boomers and younger.

“Has there been a lousier 10 years in American history?”

1971-1980?

1993-2003?

This nancy needs to turn off his television - its terrifying him.

He lists ever dopey media scarefest. How did he ever survive the nineties, with all its horrific threats like killer bees, El Nino, shark attacks, poly-unsaturated fat, pit bulls, mold, Napster, assault weapons, and attacking SUVs?

Let’s name it the decade the world got smart and realized it didn’t need the Chicago Tribune anymore. I know it doesn’t roll off the tongue too well but hey, it’s accurate.

The Day The Pravda Media Died.

Singing bye bye New York Times,
The Ol’ Grey Lady’s revealed herself to be an ‘ore
The presstitutes can’t go on anymore
they pimped their boy Obama
and yet they still sell drama
the day the pravda media died...
