This misadministration is standing on one shaky leg, what's keeping them up?

[catmandu57]

They're besieged by scandal and ineptitude cheap labor and xenophobia are at each others throats, the numbers tell daily of people waking up and smelling the coffee. They're arrogant and abuse power like they were a monarchy, thumbing their noses at the people, and congress, they're rife with incompetent cronies who can't do their job. We've watched that time and again New orleans just put a crown on that one, rice and gonzo are so fucking incompetent, she isn't a diplomat and he's not an attorney, or a manager.
From all accounts the ovp and the whitehouse are at odds and on the outs, this libby thing may well be the straw that breaks the camels back.
Energy and food costs are going through the roof, the middle class is being sqeezed out of existance, the credit industry is about to implode, what the hell is propping these guys up?

1. Media courtiers. n/t

[dkofos]

2. Indeed

[tridim]

4. Ding ding..

IMO the media needs to be punished for what they've done (or didn't do). The last seven years have been at least half their fault. Now, were they threatened or were they willing accomplices? Probably a little of both.

[catmandu57]

7. I don't think so

Sometimes no matter how much lipstick you put in a pig it's still a pig, and this porker is smelling pretty bad. john q. knows he's getting the shaft everytime he fills the tank or goes frocery shopping, the backlash against ph showed that they're getting angry at the haves and havemores, it's wearing awfully thin.

18. And Yet They Tell Us The Repiglickin' Presidential Candidates Are About Even With Ours

at the rate things are going, the next President will be Gouliani.

[ixion]

13. exactly.

if it weren't for the MSM, he'd have been gone long ago.

[liberal N proud]

14. Like Michael Moor said, The media failed to ask the right questions

And they still don't ask the tough questions, otherwise bu$h would be completely washed up.

[Philosoraptor]

3. Mass hypnosis? Alien intervention? LSD? Hell I wish I knew.

I believe we've just crossed over into....The Twilight Zone.

[leftofthedial]

5. propaganda, an ignorant and apathetic public

lots and lots of oligarchical money

(80%-plus of all the country's wealth)

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

6. A congress too timid to impeach the Capo di tutti capi.

[ananda]

9. Congress is bought.

Bought.
Bought.
Bought.

[AndyTiedye]

17. Blackmailed, More Likely

[ThomWV]

8. A Cowardly Group of Elected Representatives Supports Him, Nothing Else

[The2ndWheel]

10. The whole thing

Like Monty Burns in the Simpsons episode where he goes to the doctor and finds out that he has everything, and all the colds, diseases, etc, are stuck in a balance allowing Burns to live. Burns thus thinks he's indestructible, and goes on doing what he does.

11. The Negatives come to mind...to answer the question....GREED, EGO, SELF INTEREST, etc these are

some of the charactoristics of those enablers who are everywhere....some are in the Dem Party, Dinos we call them...but most are Pubs and Pub Leaning Media(including the owners) and a few lost Minds out there who swallowed.

[catmandu57]

12. So that brings me to my next question

If congress is bought and doesn't represent us, and if the media is complicit, when the hell are we hitting the streets for more than a weekend every six months to do something about it?

[Bonhomme Richard]

15. Gonzo, criminally partisan republicans, and spineless Democrats. n/t

[AndyTiedye]

16. The Repiglickin' Media

Without the help from all the Repiglican shills in the media, ** would never have been elected in the first place.
If he had, he would have been impeached and prosecuted by now.

19. Failure to impeach. Our Representatives' dereliction of duty.

20. There's no 'opposition party' to kick the leg out from under them.

:puke:
..And it breaks my heart.

[catmandu57]

22. That's what breaks my heart to Az

It would be so easy to do, a gentle breeze would do it, but there is enough resentment out there now that if channeled correctly would be a windstorm of epic proportions, and I'm getting tired of waiting for someone to start the blow.

[Hubert Flottz]

21. Fear of the unknown...

KKKongress is afraid to do their job.

The people are waiting for leadership that they voted for.
