I really like the National Post and read it when ever we are up in Canada and can get a hold of a copy. Real journalism with the PC garbage in American press.

Nice final paragraph:

“To the degree the press neglected its function as watchdog and turned cupbearer to a styrofoam demigod, it is a partner in the flaws and failures of what is turning out to be one of the most miserable performances in the modern history of the American presidency.”

Thanks for amplifying my point.

The only consolation is that Fox does seem to outrank
all the Commie outlets put together, but that does not
do enough to counter the radical leftist drift of younger
Americans, influenced by Commie pop culture and pubic (sic) education.

Another Canadian, Mark Steyn, points out in his latest book that the `bloom is off the rose’ for 0 and his fawning scribes & talking heads: they loved him but have come to realize that he doesn’t love them, because he’s already in love—with himself.
And `hell hath no fury like a journo scorned’; they rolled out the red carpet for this fraud—while defaming qualified candidates like Palin with her years of executive experience as well as running a commercial fishing business—and they own him, just as he owns the economy. They know it, and they know we know it.

Double dip recession? The budget deficit is 12% of GDP... That's JUST the deficit. Unless the economy is roaring somewhere somehow that we missed, we've been in a sustained economic depression since Obama took office

I've been posting, making this same point about the GDP, for years now and nobody listens. I told a guy I work with, a libertarian type, that same thing about the true negative GDP numbers and he was so upset by what I said he had to go home the rest of the day.
