Time Cover Story: Bush Decade 'Hell,' Obama Decade Better
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 11/25/2009 6:36:42 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

In one tidy cover story—The Decade From Hell And Why The Next One Will Be Better—Time sums up the last decade and the one to come. Things were "hell" under George W. Bush, but will be better under Barack Obama.

Class dismissed: that's really all you need to know. But just to drive home the Manichean message, Time editor Rick Stengel and Andy Serwer [of Time stable-mate Fortune], who wrote the cover story, appeared on Morning Joe today.

Of course there's the inconvenient detail about Barack Obama having been elected in this decade. But not to worry. Serwer explains "you may see Barack Obama being elected as the beginning of the next decade."

Excerpts from the pro-Obama babble . . .

My house doubled in price.

Then I sold it.

Good decade.

Better for who? That is the real question; the answer is pitchforks.

I’d like to see those two Obama-spooners tell the 17% of the America’s unemployed just how bad things were under Bush and just how golden things will be under this juvenile marxist lightweight.

I remember the bad old days of DJIA at 14,000. And unemployment at 4.5%. And a massive federal deficit of $180B. Whew!

Well said. Short and to the point!

There's going to be a lot of embarrassed Obama ass kissers over the next two years. These two idiots will want to forget they ever wrote this piece of garbage when Jobama destroys the economy and is known worldwide as the American idiot. The world already knows what he is but in two years they will say it out loud.

I have never seen such insanely dishonest propaganda in a leading US print media. You misspelled "a propaganda arm of the leftist government in power".

Yeah, that's correct! I do think the Time magazine Christmas issue is a little over the top, however.

This guy got raked over the coals on Squawk Box this morning...

The author was talking about everything wrong in the USA...

Michelle Caruso-Cabrera asked him if he thought Congress had any role to play and he said yes.

She then asked why there was NO MENTION of Congress’ role. He about swallowed his tongue...

What a wanker he was...Time Magazine-type

“...How’s the circulation doing ?...”

Circulation and ad pages...

last time I picked up a Time magazine, seriously it probably wasnt 40 pages total...maybe less.

Wonder why?

My house doubled in price.

Then my ex sold it and pocketed the proceeds.

It was still better than what we have now.
