Obama 'Controlled by the far left'?

[travelingtypist]

How many times do you hear that on your TeeVee every single flipping day? If he is so controlled by the liberals, why did we get so shafted in the HCR? So these people are lying on the TeeVee and they never get called on it. I thought maybe we'd come out from behind the looking glass when Obama got elected.

Bwahahahahahahahahahaha. I love those nice young men in their clean white coats, they're coming to take me away.....

1. zero - to the best of my memory - can't remember the last time I heard that

I should add - I do not turn on faux. That could be why I can't remember hearing it.

3. What channels do you watch/listen to?

Maybe I need to turn off MSNBC and Thom/Ed/Randi/Mike. It's driving me nuts.

2. And Obama thanks them for their service.

Just another way of bastardizing our message and making us the bad guys.

4. I laughed my head off when I heard that on Meet the Press Sunday

More right wing M$M propaganda that works because they flood the airwaves with it.

8. So much about MTP pissed me off this morning.

But that especially made me scream at the TeeVee.

:banghead:

5. I read just this morning

that it is the Republicans who are all upset and against mandates without a public option forcing people to buy into private insurance.

The history books are already being re written.

The republicans are not against this bill because of a forced mandated buy in of private insurance.

They were against a bill that provided a public or single payer option. This bill is their wet dream, no matter how much they continue to protest. It's all a charade. A slight of hand.

The whole process and reporting on this makes me ill.

6. I brought this up last week re Cheney calling Obama a "radical" = damage control

7. Obama has a (D) by his name.

So of course he is a flaming left wing radical in danger of falling off the edge, as is everyone else with a (D) by their name. :sarcasm:

9. The idea is to sew the idea in the public mind of corporatists being "liberals" to blur distinction

That way whenever a genuine liberal/Lefty/progressive shows up, he/she can quickly be smeared as "loony," or at best, the officially sanctioned "Unelectable" as a means of disavowing their ideas.

11. Yep.

10. He also is NOT a liberal

I am sick of hearing THAT.
