Looks like the media got the memo to push the "terrible year for Obama" story

The NPR (why do I still listen to them?) piece ended with something like "this was such a terrible year for Obama, there was a lot of bad stuff that happened to him we didn't even get to, like the government shutdown." Yes, the GOP seppuku in October is now part of the "Obama's terrible year" narrative. No mention of the IRS pseudo-scandal, though.

I get nervous if I don't hear the word BENGHAZI at least once a week.

"Millions, previously uninsured, get low cost coverage. Obama fails...you better believe it because we are going to repeat it a thousand times in the next 4 weeks."

headed to a disaster, again for I don't know how many times

I don't waste my time watching the MSM, and it has gotten to the point where Bloomberg is providing less and less reason for me to watch it

I am very close to cutting the cord on the satellite, and will just receive local channels
