He’s right - which is one reason Repubs everywhere, all the time have to point out media bias.

“You’re badgering me - not asking questions - because you’re on 0bama’s side. you would rather have 0bama win than do your job as a journalist. You suck.”

I saw an editorial posted here last week that claimed that Obama will cave because the MSM will blame him.

Everyone is a prisoner of their perception of 1995 -which is that the GOP got ALL of the blame and it was a disaster for them. What idiots....let’s review:

1 In 1995: The GOP had both houses of Congress.
2 There was a much smaller Rush Limbaugh Show.
3 There was no Mark Levin Show.
4 There was no Sirius XM Patriot Network, nor most of the now big talk shows.
5 There was no conservative internet to speak of.
6 Drudge was much smaller than today.
7 The Jurassic Media was still riding high.
8 People actually believed when the Govt shut down, the govt shut down, and we know now everyone always gets their back pay.
9 There was no tea party.
10 The GOP speaker had a name that sounded a lot like Grinch.

These libs are fighting the last war. This never works. MAY MY DAY.

His whole rise to the office, and re-election despite one of the worst performances of any modern president is ALL due to the media’s continued support and lack of critical analysis.

Well since the MSM will invariably broadcast democrat lies as truth the real question is will enough Americans finally get wise to the scam?

Sure, Oblamer can change any part of obamacare he wants, grant waivers, stall employer mandates for a year, etc., but Harry Reid said it is the law of the land and must be funded. Only The Won can break the law.

No one can take advantage of the GOP without its permission

GOP man up

Do NOT play defense with vicious democrat partisans and that means bathhouse barry hisself, who between rounds of golf and servings of pie and waffles is packing for his Bali vacation next weekend. Great visuals there

A Monday thought: we are overly concerned about ‘low info’ voters swallowing the lies of the Obamanites (”Obama has cut the deficit in half.” Babs Boxer) in the MSM.
Most low information voters don’t follow ‘politics.’ Most aren’t even aware of what’s going on re Obamacare and the debt ceiling. Democrats lie because it’s in their nature. Low info voters are about as susceptible to being ‘swayed’ as Irish setters. Do you think they call and e-mail?
All that really matters are the votes.

Not ironically, unless Obama is spectacularly successful in blaming the Republicans, which is highly unlikely, the situation is a win for the conservative Republicans.

This is because it is a *primary* goal of conservative Republicans to *slash* government spending. And what is a government shutdown? It is *not* spending money!

Critically, officially only 17% of the US federal budget is discretionary spending. So the *worst* thing that conservatives might see is a 17% reduction in the spending of the federal government.

However, because of the Treasury and FED’s *deficit* spending, the reality is that the government shutdown might affect perhaps only 5% of government spending. Likely even with the shutdown, the federal government will still be spending more than its budget.

So, tell me again how America will be crippled if the US government spends just 5% less?

While spending less money, ever, is a Keynesian nightmare, as far as sensible economics goes, it is a great idea. “If you are spending too much, spend *less*”, makes sense to everyone but a Keynesian.

From the point of view of a conservative Republican, this government shutdown is what the future government should look like, when conservative Republicans are in charge.

And it should be only the beginning, because there is a vast mountain of fat that needs to be cut from the federal budget.
