"And my ability to control the misinformation."

Waaaa Waaaa Waaaa

Imagine if Bush had said this:

[VIDEO AT SITE]

"Meanwhile, you're coming of age in a 24/7 media environment that bombards us with all kinds of content and exposes us to all kinds of arguments, some of which don't rank all that high on the truth meter. With iPods and iPads; Xboxes and PlayStations; information becomes a distraction, a diversion, a form of entertainment, rather than a tool of empowerment. All of this is not only putting new pressures on you; it is putting new pressures on our country and on our democracy."

What he's crying about is the fact that he and his cohorts haven't been as successful as hoped in controlling the flow of information, and how we...his minions...should interpret that information.

Controlling misinformation isn’t a responsibility of the Executive Branch. If it were they’d never release anything to the media, and he wouldn’t be spending all the time not on the golf course getting free airtime to spread his own propaganda.

The only way this freak could get any more disgusting is if he instituted death camps.

Coming from the guy who admits to being addicted to his Blackberry, his comments are pretty rich.

It’s almost ironic the way that leftists worked to diligently to gain total control over the traditional media, only to find that control rendered useless by the Internet and new sources of information.

Right on, and we don’t have 57 States, and since when does 80% NOT reflect as a Christian Nation?

“We are not a democracy...”

I was thinking the same thing. The idgit doesn’t even know what form of government the United States of America is! But then again, this is the same man who thinks there are 57 states.
