If by “defend” you mean completly slander and mock Bachmann after he acknowledges that Newsweek kinda went too.  It was just a case where that crazy theory that the mainstream media has a liberal bias actually has a “kernal” of truth.  How fair and balanced of Jon Stewart.  Give me a break.

omg!  stewart defends bachmann!  republicans’ heads explode!

At least she never called Harry Truman a war criminal.

Since when is Newsweek a newspaper ?

dude, slander?

1.  defamation; calumny: rumors full of slander.2.a malicious, false, and defamatory statement or report: aslander against his good name.3.Law . defamation by oral utterance rather than by writing,pictures, etc.

“Don’t expect this to happy any time soon”.

Seriously, Frances, would it kill you to proofread what you write? At least once?

making fun of someone’s admittedly bizarre visage is not slander

and he actually DID defend bachmann, as this WAS liberal media in action

Is it a shit picture?  Yes.
So why did Newsweek pick it?
Because they knew it would create a firestorm and sell magazines.

Newsweek is in the Money Game, not the Liberal Game.

Anyway, another funny segment by Stewart.

It wasn’t as much a defense of Bachmann as it was a rebuke of Brown, the Newsweek editor.

PLUS what about all the *pretty* photos?

It’s a magazine.

harry truman was a war criminal

great point

and easily defeats the argument that newsweek is liberal (and in 1 paragraph)

yup

Slander? Those were quotes. And his point was that it was a cheap shot to use that photo to go after her appearance, when it is the words and ideas of any candidate that are what count and not looks.

By the way, Stewart has been pretty up front about how he feels about Bachmann. As a candidate, sh is fair game for pundits, comedians and everyone else – as long as it is about her words and ideas and not cheap photo tricks.

(Frances – seriously. It is called proof reading where someone actually reads the actual words before publication. This is not the same as spell check. I think the internet could have survived the extra 5 minutes.)

i can proofread for 15 bucks an hour, frances!  (seriously, i’m good, well-educated, need
some extra money)

Keeva, you are honest no matter which side it is. thumbs up

Actually, Tina Brown is as much in the political game as any actual admitted politician. And she is – by her own admission – liberal and so is the publication. They make no bones about that.

Brown’s own words make the point.

What the problem is here is that she has actually picked up other people’s vague attempts at image manipulation for fun, profit and magazine sales and just copied them. Not even original. It was done to both Palin and Obama in 2008.

As I have said in a different thread – I am no fan of Bachmann, but I have to defend her here. This is now twice that she has been gone after with nonsense when her own words and ideas are pretty open to attack. It is just lazy journalism.

Pretty much and well deserved, but a rebuke of Tina Brown on this is pretty much a defense of Bachmann on the photo.

I think the higher-ups in the Republican party are trying to undermine Bachmann’s chances because they fear she won’t have a chance against Obama. 

please tell us why

Then so is Barack Obama.

just out of curiousity, did you read the article?

“admittedly bizarre” – who admitted same darla?  you?

that’s what he/she said

Let’s see what you look like, toots. I’m picturing Precious.

Frances’ article above, yes. Why?

On the photo, but not of Bachmann herself.

Yes.

Yes, on the issue of the obviously selected bad photo. I thought that was pretty clear.

i see, so you don’t see anything wrong with the photo

ok, then

men who still use the term ‘toots’?  and way more so those who use it anonymously?

whoa…..just imagine their shallow, incurious minds

i agree

gee, i’m gonna have to think about that for a minute

no, the newsweek article

can’t judge a book by its cover

Sorry Jon, You can’t hide crazy.

like oscar said, “ There is only one thing in life worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about”

dont hurt yourself

now you’re talking too much sense dude, careful

and btw, i don’t think the higher-ups need to do anything, michelle does it by herself

Comedy Central is part of main stream media?

What does Main Stream Media mean nowadays?  Not Fox? Not rightwingnut bloggers?

yes, not fox

that is *precisely* how the narrative is driven, by fox

after all, they’re a “first place team”!!

At least you’re consistent. Truman’s use of the atomic bomb probably saved far more lives than it cost. And even after Hiroshima, the Japanese didn’t surrender. Nor is it clear they intended to surrender. If anything the fire bombings of German cities (to say nothing of Tokyo) were more morally problematic.

Now that the people of Wisconsin have proven all those demonstrations were nothing but astroturf, it is time to get back to getting rid of public employee unions.
The unions spent millions buying demonstrations and lying tv ads and LOST.

Nope. I should read it online, but the debate is about the cover and not the book. So, actually, we are judging the cover. Similarly, you cannot judge a cover by the book, and, again, this is about the cover photo.

If you’re so good at proofreading, why’d you miss the capitalization in “i’m”? 

No, it wouldn’t. Is this a blog or an actual news website with professional journalists?

don’t play games, dude

I use it ironically.

Thumbs up for the edit!

dont play games? i ask you why and you come back with a smart ass comment

well darla would also think FDR, JFK, LBJ are war criminals too……so

They’re getting a little nervous and that’s why they pushed out the migraine thing. Then Rove said she has to come out and prove she can still be able to function with those migraines 

japan surrendered on the 15th, first of all.  

second of all, at least 200,000 died.  

and how about after 1 year?  what about long term sickness?

and this you say was truman’s morally unproblematic decision?

to prevent……more deaths?  while taking out 200,000 innocent people?

being a native californian, and having known japanese whose ancestors
died, who spent time in internment camps after the war here in northern california,
i’m not sure i can have this flippant discussions 

that’s not irony

if you’re so clever, then why’d you forget the “then” in the latter phrase
of your sentence?

if……., then…….

and how many would have died in a invasion?   a million from both sides

Of course it was. Who uses “toots” in 2011 in anything other than an ironic sense? You’re just not a very perceptive reader. On the other hand, I don’t really give a shit how well you read so…guess you win!

the use of words to convey a meaning that is the opposite ofits literal meaning: the irony of her reply, “How nice!” whenI said I had to work all weekend.2.Literature .a.a technique of indicating, as through character or plotdevelopment, an intention or attitude opposite to thatwhich is actually or ostensibly stated.b.(especially in contemporary writing) a manner oforganizing a work so as to give full expression tocontradictory or complementary impulses, attitudes,etc., especially as a means of indicating detachmentfrom a subject, theme, or emotion.

The overweening contempt for ordinary American voters dripping from the Team Obama media mouthpieces at Newsweek is patently obvious in their grotesque smear of Congresswoman Bachmann: “The elderly, the unemployed, the exasperated, and even a few disillusioned Democrats crowd her rallies and cheer her not-going-to-take-it-anymore shtick, even as they recognize some of its inherent contradictions.” Into Newsweek’s Demented Left echo chamber, no light from the real American political world of fly-over country penetrates. This is the Newsweek that stated in 1980 that “Fringe candidate Ronald Reagan has no chance of getting a elected.” This is the Newsweek that has lost 56% of its circulation over the last 10 years.
  “Bachmann planned to vote against the debt-ceiling compromise that would ensure the arrival of her Social Security check and the military benefits owed to her sons and nephews.”
This last statement is an outright fabrication by Newsweek. The Wall St. Journal proved that Social Security payments of $50 billion/month could have been paid 100% out of the SS Trust fund with no net cash drawdown from the Treasury. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424053111903554904576458294273264416.html?KEYWORDS=social+security+trust+fund

i thought i responded to this already, but the japanese surrendered within 6 days of
nagasaki

Maybe 10 million as a result of the famines and so on.

Um, Newsweek wouldnt do that to Hilary, no matter the monetary gain.

(Although admittedly it would be hard to FIND a flattering pic of Hillary, but still…)

Game. Set. Match. Im right, you both are wrong.

Darladoon is as stupid as BFD is dishonest. You two make quite the couple.

“Toots” is a traditional term of affection for a woman. I meant the opposite. Hence the irony.

He did sort of defend her, and he reminded Newsweek that if they wanted to make her seem crazy, all they have to do is use her words.  They didn’t have to use her photo.  

First, that was a lame attempt at trying to find something wrong with my sentence.  Second, I didn’t claim to be the “educated” “good proofreader”.  I was just having fun with you, lighten up.

Is that what I said?  Your “admittedly bizarre” was the phrase in question – admitted by you?  That qualifies.  Did I state anywhere that I approved of the picture?  If so, please show me exactly where I said same.

Darla you truly aren’t bright enough to play your silly games – always fall flat on your ass (which I assume is no dainty feat).

how is dropping two atomic bombs on millions of innocent people not an egregious
crime against humanity?

Newsweek is absurdly biased.  This cover follows the even more ridiculous one showing Romney (photo shopped on someone else’s body) jumping up in the air like a fruitcake.  Okay, we get it, you support Obama.

I am at least glad all these supposedly neutral publications are now clearly out in the open as being liberal biased.

have you ever worked in this type of environment, nietzschean?

there is no argument about the political persuasion of newsweek – it was never in question sweets.
It’s a liberal rag.  I’m amazed an astute student of politics like yourself would even think to question the obvious. lol

you’re wrong, because this was clearly an overall rebuke of tina brown, when
 in fact, ms. brown commissioned a relatively nuanced portrait of ms. bachmann 
inside the magazine

it was unfair to ms. bachmann and ms. brown, imho

they pushed the migraine thing and then asked her to disprove the migraine thing?  what?

man, i’ll bet your show is amazing

 Yeah Newsweek.  Why don’t you take her words out of context instead of just a picture?  What a defense of Bachmann!

Yes, I have. Have you?

You didn’t watch the segment did you?

its the opposite of its “literal” meaning, not a different meaning altogether

your meaning wasn’t the “opposite” meaning, it was the only meaning,
an offensive, antiquated, sexist term

it is used in no other way….

try using that “irony” on a coffee break with your female colleagues some day

so was i, lighten up

If 100,000 lives save millions more, then yes I think it is. And we can bat around hypotheticals involving your greater goods and whether this number or that was worth it to accomplish it. To paraphrase, Churchill, I know what you are; now it’s simply a matter of establishing the price.

and btw, you do have to use “then” whenever you start a sentence with “if”

Oh, I see what the problem is. You’re just ignorant. Consult Al Jolsen, toot sweet.

The right wing website Dailycaller came out with Bachmann having problems with migraines, so she had to get her doctor to release a statement that she can control her migraines and it won’t interfere with her work.  

so a publication that is roughly 80% advertising, tabloids and fluff; that has an
editorial staff including centrist republicans, centrist democrats, several conservatives
and a couple liberals; that essentially functions as a stenographer for whoever
is in the white house or on capitol hill; that actually debates “controversial” topics
like……evolution and climate change; and whose primary function is to make
as much money as possible (nevermind informing readers or attempting to
advance an ACTUAL liberal agenda) is LIBERAL?  please, i have better things
to do with my time than “debate” whether the mainstream media has a liberal
agenda.  

so truman bombed a 250,000 innocent japanese out of compassion

yeah, “maybe”

my response is “maybe not”

did you read the actual article in newsweek?

just because they support obama doesn’t make them liberal

and btw, you do have to use “then” whenever you start a sentence with “if”

If at first you don’t succeed try, try again.  If the shoe fits wear it.  Seems like there are exceptions to the rule.

yes

Okay Stewart, we’ve got the picture thing, now we can work on the word thing. Without context short snippets of cherry-picked statements attached to faulty logic is just as dishonest as cherry picking photos. Thanks for pointing out their dishonesty though. Love the show, funny as usual. Lose the high-horse, he may buck you off.

yikes

No. Nobody questioned, challenged or mentioned the actual article. The controversy is the cover photo.

Why is it so hard for either side to ever admit an error? It is not like it is the end of all things.

It is simple – Tina Brown went out of her way to find an unattractive photo to help create an instant unfavorable visual, regardless of the article. Again, this is about the cover. And only the cover.

Say-y-y-y-y-y-y, aren’t you the same Darladoon who wrote, “she looks exactly like she does on the newsweek cover?”  Now, all of a sudden, BFD makes a “great point” about the “shit picture” on the Newsweek cover?  Which is it, then?  Were you, perhaps, full of shit when you made your previous statement?

it’s also about ms. brown’s credibility, which was obviously eviscerated in stewart’s 
critique (in defense of ms. bachmann).

Just like I always say…..

Don’t judge a kook by the cover.

As a general rule, you should follow an “if” by a “then” STATEMENT, but the “then” may be implicit.  For you multiple degree holders, that means it does not have to be written, but can be understood.  (In other words, your vaunted education isn’t all that you constantly brag that it is.)  

So if they don’t paint the conservative crazy bitch in a good light, they’re the MSM liberal bias attack dog.

Got it…

Must make life easy for you. Victims Incorporated.

What? No Donald Trump news on Mediaitrump today? I AM SHOCKED!

btw, if hirohito (?) had bombed new york and los angeles

i’m sure you would have argued that he was trying to prevent further loss of life

You must be bringing in this nuked Japan thing from some place else.
You, sir or madam, are one of the most naive persons I have ever come across!
The innocence of civilians was no protection for them in Europe. The Nazis blitzed London. The Brits firebombed Dresden, though it had little military value. The death toll estimates range form 35,000 to 100,000. That is just one example.
We did kill many times more civilians in Japanese cities by firebombing them. Japanese buildings were all made of wood, and we used incendiary bombs. People who didn’t die of burns died of oxygen deprivation.
The opinion of civilian “innocence” in time of war is questionable, since they supported the military and gained economically from the occupation of much of China and all of Indonesia.
Furthermore, every American soldier, sailor, and airman who died during that war could be considered “innocent” in that our side didn’t start the war.
You should read about what the Japanese did in China, the Philippines, and to their prisoners of war.
Look at what happened during the battle of Okinawa (a Japanese island, and the only part of Japan that we actually invaded).

More people died during the Battle of Okinawa than all those killed
during the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Casualties totaled
more than 38,000 Americans wounded and 12,000 killed or missing, more
than 107,000 Japanese and Okinawan conscripts killed, and perhaps
100,000 Okinawan civilians who perished in the battle.http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/facility/okinawa-battle.htm

The JAPANESE military is responsible for the civilian deaths there. They told to civilians to commit suicide because we would butcher them if they didn’t.
cjdohoio1 is absolutely correct. Invasion of the larger Japanese islands would have caused more American AND JAPANESE deaths that the entire war in the Pacific did.
Finally, why did we only nuke the Japanese? Because Germany was beaten before the bomb was ready. Also, using that bomb in Europe would have been harmful to our close in allies, but that was not the case for Japan.
Of course the Japanese you know today are innocent. They didn’t do what their great grandparents did.

Get the big picture before you go all bleeding heart.

Maybe not? Se my diatribe above. There is no maybe about it. The Japanese you know in California today are not the Japanese who were responsible for the war and were Japanese patriotic, not American patriotic.

The problem is not the picture! It is the caption.

Try looking at it with a caption that says BACHMANN IS OPTIMISTIC or BACHMANN THE FUTURE PRESIDENT?

If you look at it that way, you see a confident smile. Try it.

Now you see how propaganda works. It’s all in the words.

As a Ron Paul Bot.. 

I have seen numerous hack pieces 

against him where they did the same thing.  

Put up a rather odd looking photo to go along 

with their “he’s nuts” meme.

You make a valid point, that perception of the photo can be colored by the caption – your exercise is illuminating – but I respectfully disagree with your implication that there is no problem with the picture.  I base that on the fact that I first saw the photo WITHOUT the caption on some other news website, and my initial reaction was, “Where did they get that awful photo of Michelle Bachmann?”  Then I learned that it was the photo used on a Newsweek cover, and the motive became clear.  My point is that, regardless of the caption, the photo was obviously chosen because it was very unflattering.

Apparently, the cable subscribers in Portage, Indiana, didn’t think so.

Fact: Demarodents and union failed in their attempt to steal seats in Wisconsin! That’s just too F-N funny. Hahahahahahahahahahaha……………………………..

With defenders like Stewart who needs detractors…..

Sadly this left wing, head buried in Obama’s crotch zealot is so high on his own stench he doesn’t even realize the female Conservative bashing is the MSM following his cue.

FIRST: Let’s remember that the greatest attacks on Representative Bachmann have been by the Republicans, most especially T-Paw, Turd Blossom and #ucker* Karlsen.

SECOND: Let’s acknowledge that Representative Bachmann has won the grudging respect of a large number of Americans irrespective of their ideology or their party affiliation. Certainly, I generally disagree with Bachmann policy positions, and, certainly, I find Bachmann more than a bit erratic and unstable. However, if we compare her to a Willard, we have a candidate who has both passion and consistency for and with her beliefs. To a T-Paw, we have a candidate with a spine. To a Half-Baked Alaskan, we have a candidate who has energy, resolve, discipline, a strong work ethic and who is not wholly self-absorbed.

Do I want Bachmann to win the nomination? No. Do I think she will win? No. Do I respect her? More than any serious candidate in the Republican field. 

_____
*Insert consonant of choice.

“As a candidate/president, he is fair game for pundits, comedians and everyone else
– as long as it is about his words and ideas and not the color of his skin.”

When we used this, we were called racist, because apparently everything we didn’t like about his words and ideas were actually about his skin color. Hmmm.

Tina Brown and Newsweek are a joke, trying to defend their use of that picture, even Jon Stewart and I think it was wrong. I am sick of these British people like Piers Morgana and Tina Brown coming to our country with their UK Tabloid B.S. and dragging our media through the mud. It reminds me of the Guns and Roses song

“They come to our country and think they’ll do as they please
Like start some mini-UK
And spread some f*cking disease
They talk so many godd*mn ways
It’s all Greek to me”- W. Axl Rose

In defense of Newsweek, without seeing all the proofs, it is actually possible that this was the shot they got that was the least crazy-looking.

The thinking back then was that there were no “innocent” Japanese. Most worked to support the war effort, either directly or indirectly (working in factories making bombs, etc.).

Newsweek got what they wanted:  We’re all talking about it.

It’s about selling magazines, folks. I’m sure Tina Brown is more than happy to come on TV to be criticized for it.

Why does it not surprise me that you’re a bigot?

Its called COMEDY!!!

But is there a more flattering picture of her?
Is the problem with her eyes or the tightness of her skin?
I don’t mean to be mean, but maybe she has been botoxed recently? That could lead to a frozen face look.

More or less, yes. But it wasn’t an easy decision according to the biographers. Also, MacArthur wanted to nuke China to end the Korean war, but Truman said no and had to fire MacArthur for publicly challenging that decision. No general was ever more popular and more egotistical than MacArthur.

So that is where this got started.

Fair and Balanced?  Where have I heard that before?  John please stop letting FOX News think for you.  It makes you look like you’re brainwashed.  You complain about the mainstrem media having a liberal bias at the same time using the motto of FOX NEWS.  I’m sure they don’t have any bias right?

That was similar to when Contessa Brewer asked “are you an economists”?  LOL 

japanese-americans are patriotic to both

You probably should just quite while you are…behind.

let me ask you something:  would you have considered the mass slaughter of 
americans in los angeles and new york by two japanese atomic bombs a crime against humanity?

Judge her by the crazy things she says. Not how crazy they try and make her look on the cover of a magazine. 

No more so than the rest of the atrocities the Japanese committed during WW II. Do you know anything about those atrocities? Anything at all?

Interesting thing about the migraine thing. It is not only a woman thing. In fact, Thomas Jefferson had migraines and that didn’t stop him from being president.

No one tried to do anything. It was a candid shot.

Lets just point out the obvious

1. That is a messed up pic, the phrase “nutty as a fruitcake” comes to mind when i see that

2. People thought Bachmann was nuts prior to this pic

3. Jon Stewart makes fun of media absurdity and politicians in general 

4. Bachmann and Palin and several shows on fox news are not exactly hard targets, fox and friends alone could provide alot of comedic material, they tried to demonize sponge bob lol. ergo at this very moment in time with their high profile the conservative side in the form of certain politicians and “news” shows simply provides more material, and its very easy to find

People may not like it cause its closer to the truth then they want to admit but I’m sure they’ll get over it

Please next to photo shopping Mitt Romney’s head on a Broadway dancers body while he leaps in the air…..this wasn’t even in the top ten Newsweek’s biased covers.

I usually agree with Jon Stewart… and guess I somewhat agree here… but crazy bug-eyed appearances by Bachman are hardly the rarity he seems to claim. I can’t count the video clips in which I thought to myself that the woman looked as insane as her words betray her to be. Wide-eyed and scary is a common look for Michelle B.

He’s a fucking comedian! He doesn’t need to be fair and balanced. Fox does, and they suck at it!

I know beauty is subjective, but I’m with Stewart on this; there are tons of flattering pictures of Michelle Bachmann.  They had to work to pick one where her eyes look crossed and she has a tentative, anticipatory smile; almost as though she were waiting for the photographer to get ready.  But I will stop short of accusing the photographer of a hit job.  We’ve all had photos taken of ourselves that we would just as soon throw away, and this was on of those, for Michelle Bachmann.  But instead of throwing it away, Tina Brown chose it for the Newsweek cover, with a political purpose.  

I just paid $ 23.86 for an iPhone and my girlfriend loves her Dell laptop that we got for $ 38.76 there arriving tomorrow by UPS I will never pay such expensive retail prices in stores again. Especially when I also sold a 42 inch LED TV to my boss for $ 665 which only cost me $ 62,81 to buy. Here is the website we use to get it all from, GrabPenny.com

I’ve watched Jon Stewart from time to time for over tens and I’ve yet to hear him utter anything that even comes close to being humorous.  Sarcastic, yes.  Smart alec, yes.  Nasty, yes.  Unsavory, yes.  Offensive, yes. Obnoxious, yes.  Vicious, yes.  Malicious, yes.  Obscene, yes.  Churlish, yes.  Cantankerous, yes.  Vulger, yes. Off-color, yes.  Suggestive, yes.  Indecent, yes.  But, humorous, I don’t think so.  He is not only not funny he is a disagreeable person doing hateful things and getting paid for doing them.  Only a nitwit would think this guy is humorous or funny or even close to being an entertainer worth listening to for a second time. 

He wasn’t defending bachmann.  He was chastising Newsweek for their shoddy journalism.  i agree it was a cheap shot by Tina Brown.  

No it’s not “liberal media in action”. Read the article. The article exists solely for one reason: just how out of character it is to see a liberal defend a conservative against another liberal without some ulterior motive. 

Hannity and O’Reilly are entertainers as well. And TDS is not the Onion. It’s an accepted source of legit journalism by many of those on the left and under 30. 

If they were in the money game, they’d have figured out how to turn a profit, like Newsmax.

Because “toots” is a leftist?

LOL! No it wasn’t. This a blatant attempt to make her look insane. The editor Tina Brown even admitted it.

Fox actually is fair and balanced, as much as their detractors hate to hear it.  The rest of the media is composed of about 90% Democrats, as polling has shown for decades, and less than half the stories on Fox actually originate there so they don’t really even drive their own coverage as much as you’d think.

I don’t think the media necessarily INTEND to be biased, but then hardly anyone does.  We all like to think we’re the rational center of objectiveness. But the reality is, the media in this country are well to the left (or more accurately, to the socially liberal and statist side) of the median American.  Those are just the facts.

I’m just shocked that Stewart finds Bachman so alluring. She’s a pretty mediocre looking individual.

interesting you didn’t say he was wrong

I admit that I break cameras without touching them. ;-)

 Here we have Darladoon, not even born until after WWII, passing judgement on past events with which she had nothing to do, and of which she has little knowledge.

 Darladoon has never served her country in the military. Darladoon has never been to war, never had anyone trying to kill her daily for months on end. Darladoon has been protected by the military her whole life – so much so, that she perceives no external threat to our country. She sleeps well because others not only defend her, but proactively discourage others from harming her.

 Darladoon has no knowledge of what is being done daily to protect her, and cares not, thank you very much.

 What Darladoon does have, however, is a liberal education and an entitlement attitude. She presumes to judge long-past events through the lens of a different world 65 years later.

 Darladoon is a typical representation of the far left – mouthy, uninformed, probably very obese and unemployed for… wait for it… a “disability” or some other “good reason”. Her monthly government check is what she “deserves”. She passes judgement on others while they provide financial support to her. Darladoon is also known as a lifetime “loser”.

 Thank you Darladoon, for showing everyone just how ignorant the far left is. We appreciate it.

How much time are  people going spend talking about pictue Michelle Bachmann posed for.That’s how she looks.

Holy crap folks, it’s Jon Stewart.  To the paranoid righties; it is comedy.  Frankly, I thought the sketch was pretty good.  And let’s face it, there are ALOT of us out there who think Michelle Bachman is nuts.  Just like I’m sure you think the President is nuts…..or a Muslim non citizen.  Oh, I’m sorry, that was last year’s “slander”. 

We’ve got some serious work to do in this country.  Reading comments like these makes me afraid.  Very afraid. 

Anyone here who denies that the bulk of the mainstream media is overwhelmingly biased in favor of the Left is intellectual dishonest. (I often give alternate explanations, like “living under a rock or maybe a 3rd world country that doesn’t get Western news” but I already qualified that with “anyone *here*.”) Year after year after year, more and more nonpartisan studies are added to the pile that PROVE it, and more and more polls (of the reporters and others) PROVE it, while the pile of polls and studies contradicting that fact in a credible fashion… does not exist. It’s NOT in question by anyone at all worth debating. Even many Leftists admit it. The only ones that deny it are inveterate liars – like trolls on the Internet, or politicians.

They wouldn’t have been crimes against humanity if they were done in response to unprovoked acts of war committed during peacetime. See how that works?

Business men produce and sell widgets and
other products. Governments are in charge of real people and their livelihoods.
People can’t be treated like products and widgets and other products. We need a
people president like Obama.
Many business men trying to become President believe and have stated, a person
who wishes to become President of the United States should have previously run
some kind of a business, I believe the complete opposite is true and here is
why. To run a business for profit, one must be focused to the point of being
ruthless in many cases, such as if drugs, condoms, pornography, toxic material
or anything that offends your religion or the religion or health of anyone
being affected by what you produce and sell, spreading it through the various
neighborhoods throughout America, for the benefit of your stock holders you
must remember money and profits are the bottom line. This is why business is in
trouble with society today like never before. Sending Jobs to China for Big
Profits is another example of why decent people are not voting for the God
Almighty Dollar. Businesses want to do business with Communist and Socialist
but they don’t want our Government to be Communist or Socialist. Many
Businesses thrive on using double standards but doesn’t want anyone else to use
it, so they tell lies; most people see through this scheme. Because of America
over the years of being indoctrinated into honesty, fairness and sacrifice for
a bare decent living, they may be leaning towards Socialism. In fact I hear
more and more people saying the thing the world needs is a little Capitalism
seasoned with a little Socialism like China is starting to implement.
Obama, who had a great deal of experience dealing with the neglected sector of
our America, like all Governments have, and are many time rejected by most
industries. They are still here and need dealt with. Industry refuses to deal
with this sector of our economy, so most business owners and CEO”S of larger
Corporate Conglomerates don’t have patience, or knowledge to cope with this
part of America. Obama has that experience, he doesn’t have the back biting
experience needed to deal with ruthless business men but he does have the
advisors for that reason and if they aren’t getting the job done, he can
acquire new and better equipped advisors. One thing for shore, naïve voters
ignorant of what is really going on can easily choose a wrong president. They
chose Hitler in Germany and look what a bunch of decent naïve people who voter
wrong cause the entire world in the 1940’s

Here we have Myself, not even born until after WWII, passing
judgement on another human being who he/she had never met, and of whom he/she has little knowledge.

Myself might never have served in the military him/herself, but say he/she has, presumes to have the right to lambast others and call them losers because Myself has a special badge that makes him/her “better” or “more knowledgeable” about the “real world”

What Myself has is an entitlement attitude. Apparently, by not having a liberal education or having served in the military, Myself can callously call other people losers.

Myself is a typical representation of the far right – mouth, uninformed, probably very obese and has some sort of anger management issue. He can slander others because he/she’s “knows what it’s like to serve”. He/She passes judgement on others while doing it him/herself. Myself is also known as a lifetime “asshole”.

Guess what Myself – I’m a Sergeant in the Army. I agree with Darladoon. Thank you for showing how ready to judge the far right is. We appreciate it.
