When did the media stop caring about the powerless vs. the powerful?

Liberals ARE The Establishment - but the MSM wants to pretend they're hippie kids needing protection.

Either - the power shifted and the MSM was too stupid to notice, or they were always in the bag for one side. Or after becoming the Establishment - they liked the power and took on all attributes of the old Establishment...

Do you believe stuffinguphisnose s being gregory in the ratings.

Watching Gregory is utterly pointless. It's not an interview, it's a script. And they can't even make it an intriguing script.

They have the story lines they want to deliver and they leadenly deliver them.

I think her comments were a tad over the top, but on the other hand it got her opinion and her opposition in the news.

Frankly, given how we are being called Nazis and mobsters it’s pretty hard to fault her for calling the Obama health care plan evil. And I do agree that there is a bias in the program against the elderly and the disabled. It’s not in black and white but “creative” interpretation would allow the government to withhold care.

Given that some of the people in this administration are firmly ensconced in the culture of death (and I don’t just mean pro-abortion) I think she is correct to be highly suspicious of this plan.

NYC comprised of a large jewish LIBERAL population, followed by minority populations that revere the democrats.

When Dinkins brought the city to it’s near demise Rudy was elected Mayor. He lost the first time and Dinkins was the result.

It takes a crisis for the people to become desperate.

Years of bashing republicans for overspending has brought us Obama.

Happy now?

I would think it is the spike in deaths in Afghanistan.

I live close to FT. Payne which was the sock capital of the world. Many of the mills have closed along with other industry. The main thing left is the illegal aliens.

Did David Axelrod write Wallace’s questions for this morning?

Fortunately, McConnell is really up to the task this morning.

I disagree. IMHO the outrage is very real and it is quite obvious to anyone without an agenda. I am sorry it took so long for the American taxpayer to engage in democracy.

Last week when the phony Unemployment number drop was released, Wallace made the comment that now that the economy is doing so much better we will have money for health care.

ARRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHH

I’m hearing that many of the people protesting are democrats, or vote democrat. Are we all hearing the same? Is it true?

#####

Maryland has an entrenched democrat voter majority, and I am hearing ‘mainstream’ democrats calling talk shows as angry about Obamacare as any conservative.

Bottom line: most Americans can see that whatever health care insurance plan they now have will be negatively impacted by Pelosi/Obama’s plans.

Our vaunted ‘journalists’ do not see this dynamic yet, because they prefer to stick with dnc story lines instead of their own eyes and ears.

The market rallies are tied to the O approval ratings.

The lower his ratings the higher the market.

It’s a scenario that has been proven out for decades.

You've got that exactly backwards.

"Presidents who were in office while the stock market was strong typically have been more popular and vice versa."

Interesting I had thought of up grading to HD though not sure my TV would be good enough but as I tend to watch mainly news or sports programs that tend to have alot of animations/graphics that is something to bare in mind.
