This guy epitomizes the myopia of the corrupt mainstream media. They see and report only that which fits their agenda. They marginalize any opposing point of view.

I don’t think people blame him for anything that’s wrong in this country, unless – I think the far-right of the Republican Party does

Last I checked Obama's disapproval rating was 54%. So according to Gartner, 54% of the electorate resides in the far-right corner of the GOP.

In a twisted way, he is right.

Obama was not in charge when the downturn started. People do not blame him for the housing crisis or the bank meltdownn.

However, the reason people will not vote for him in 2012 is because he did nothing to FIX those problems! They are not getting better, despite Obama’s policies.

So, yes, Obama did not start this, but Obama is not going to end it either. Therefore, we need someone else.

When I see a definitive poll that shows the majority specifically blames Obama for the economy, I`ll believe he`s speaking BS. There still is a disturbingly high percentage of people who think Obama`s wonderful.

“I don’t think people blame him for anything that’s wrong in this country,” except, that is, “the far-right of the Republican Party.””

Indeed....those people who are FAR and away RIGHT about what is causing the problem.

...Obama ticked up to a 48 to 47 percent approval over disapproval...

It's easy to approve of Barry when you don't pay taxes anyway. We've got too many takers in this country and not enough givers.

“I think people have a fondness for him and I don’t think people blame him for anything that’s wrong in this country,” except, that is, “the far-right of the Republican Party.”

Really? Which people have a fondness for him? Media presidents? Mr. Gartner really ought to widen his circle of acquaintances.

Mr. 0bama is not responsible for filling the 2006 Congress with grotesque spendthrifts, to be sure. He is responsible for filling his administration with vicious ideologues, academic fools, and race and class warriors whose notion of politics is a place at the public trough for their favorite super-citizens. The latter may be fond of him; the rest of us think he's an idiot.

He's lying and he knows he's lying.

This is the attitude that allowed him to rise to the top at NBC. This is the reckless bald faced lying attitude that has taken one of the greatest news organizations and turned it into a joke.

Sshhhh.

We like them to have this level of delusion. We should really be encouraging them anyway we can.

A man the other day told me this, “I would never vote for Sarah Palin, but I would screw her”

I responded: “I did not vote for Obama, but he is definitely screwing us”

Gee, I thought the Kenyan Bandit’s low poll numbers
were because Americans DO blame him for the poor job
he’s doing.

ROFLOL! He must only travel in liberal circles because here even in the grocery store lines you can hear all about how bad everything is since that blankety blank Obama took office.

He is a ‘queen’ then- like the Queen of England - a ‘celebrity’ figurehead.

That’s funny. I had a liberal apologize to me for falling for Obama’s lies and now sounding like a conservative. I mean, he is wanting Bachman for President. If Obama can completely change this guy from hard core social justice liberal to conservative, Obama is in big, big trouble.

This type of in-your-face stupidity is starting to frighten me. The folks at the top of the media ecosystem may be rigid ideologues, but they're not all simply retarded.

Why do they look into the cameras every day and tell obvious lies?

In the Soviet Union, they were simply ordered to so so...it was the de facto core of their employment. Ditto modern China. And the publics have little recourse.

In contemporary America, news customers can easily see the bobbing head on the screen is spouting bu!!sh't. The advertisers and media beancounters can easily see the numbers of viewers/readers falling, making the enterprises less profitable/valuable.

In the case of the NY Times, the controlling family is led by a dim bulb who hates the country, and is rich enough to not care if it all falls apart. As for the Washington Post, its biggest shareholder has been lining his pockets with tax breaks and regulatory ease for decades...he personifies crony capitalism...of course that's Warren Buffett. And Michael Bloomberg needs no explanation.

But what about all the other outlets? Do their owners LIKE losing money? Or do they have a regulatory gun pointed at them?
