Listen, I'm not defending the fact that money seems to be flying out the window. About 70% of the programs on the table, I disagree with - including the health care proposals on the table. I think the cash for clunkers could have been executed more effectively to benefit the US economy. On the other hand, I think there are many aspects where the snowball was already halfway down the hill when he took office and now the brunt of the damage is being pinned on him.
The stock market tanking was pinned as 100% Obama's fault by many on this forum. I guess that must mean the market having one of the best July's ever is also due to him?
What I will defend is a blatant display of misinformation and selective representation of 'facts' to further a political agenda. I pisses me of when the Dems do it as well concerning their policies, same with the Obama praisers.
The issue with media now a days is that there is no longer neutral reporting. Opinion articles are perceived by many as fact and that's why I always emphasize that they are opinions. "Reporters" have decided that as long as they put 'Opinion' at the top of the page, they can say whatever they want to.
