1. "Obama is my guy now and I want him to succeed because I want America to succeed"
Edited on Tue Feb-03-09 05:29 PM by stray cat
quote from Charlie Crist. I think Obama can work with anyone who cares more about people than party.

8. Crist is no dummy, and thankfully knows when to put aside partisan politics.
While I still would rather a Democrat in the Governor's Mansion in Tally, Crist is light years ahead of the despicable POS that preceded him.

2. Hallelujah
I just called my new Senator Michael Bennett and his office couldn't say for sure if he's supporting bill, wants to know more. I offered my "more".

6. Now, why can we not get more of this support on the television and in groups
supporting the stimulus rather than those packs of rabid pukes trying to tear it up at every camera opportunity that presents itself??

7. The media needs to talk to governors who have to deal with real live problems
rather than house members who only care about getting re-elected by their base.

12. The media aren't interested in helping Obama. His appr. #s slipped nearly 20%
from 80% down to 60% in just 3 weeks which means they are winning it for corporate friendly repubs.

Mission (nearly) accomplished.

14. How true
Edited on Tue Feb-03-09 05:44 PM by jbfam4
The media causes a lot of problems giving a big platform to the congress critters.

Look at all the lies that Rep Cantor has told. No one I heard even corrected him.



hope this one works....

15. I disagree. It's not about ratings per se.
It's about serving the propaganda interests of their corporate masters, which pretty much coincides with the agenda of the Republican Party. Ratings are important mostly as measures of what percentage of the available viewing audience is receiving the corporate/Republican message.

16. "It's about serving the propaganda interests of their corporate masters..."
Word. It's been this way with the print and broadcast media since the Raygun years.

If not for the internets, what would we really know?

17. I thought he did a good job and made a lot of sense. Of course
he'll probably be silenced for a while.
