Super Stupid

ABC News demonstrates their obviously liberal in-the-tank support for the president by comparing him and his lavish “private jet” to the CEOs of failed Wall Street corporations who blackmailed us for $700 billion.

    I love that argument. Especially his OWN LIMO that isn’t eco friendly. “Why hasn’t Obama stopped bullets from hitting his EV1 yet? or “Why hasn’t Obama fix the law of physics that prevent human beings from flying?”I hope the Air Force hears this insanity. Those men and women are serving the Motherfucking President of the United States on a military piece of equipment not a fucking private jet. By this logic my Humvee was a fucking luxury vehicle complete with a cool sunroof and 50 caliber machine gun. By 50 caliber machine gun I mean personal defense equipment approved by the NRA. COLD DEAD HANDS FUCKERS!*This rant was curitusy of your fellow disgruntly veteran that is sick of the GOP and the MSM*

    ABC news was also the group of propagandists that mentioned the heavily debunked story of the Clinton staff removing the W keys from all White House computers as if the story was true.What cracks me up is that they say this stuff so seriously as if they actually believe it. Anyone with more than two working neurons in their brain should realize that the President is not going to fly on a commercial flight. ABC appears unaware of the Secret Service. It’s obviously dishonest propaganda. They think we are idiots.ABC – Another Big Corporation. Disgustingly Dishonest Propagandists.Mr. Potato – disgruntly – love it.

    Peter Jennings would be so ashamed

    I knew this would happen when I heard about Sarah Palin (not) selling the state plane on eBay.Cluelessness is a liability in someone who is allegedly meant to represent me, and is the thing that replaces the spine in most Republicans. NO CREDIBILITY. JUST CLUELESSNESS.

    Yah so also, NBC news tonight was going on about how stuff like medical research and renovating the commerce department were taken out because they weren’t stimulus. I’d like to take a second to point out that may um… research scientists and all the construction/design people that would be required to do these things…are people… people who need…jobs? Maybe?

  • shaddomagg

    Yep..Airforce One is certainly equal to the Bailout Jets. I’m Canadian, living in Canada. Furiously interested, for some bizarre reason, in American politics. As an outsider…does “Joe the Regular american” really understand how flippin bizarre this is??? Please tell me if I’m missing something!

  • shaddomagg

    Veralynn: Peter Jennings was Canadian, too!!!

  • beautykilledbeast

    Perhaps if John E. Pepper, Jr., Chairman of the Board of the Walt Disney Company needs to survive and fight a global thermonucular war, then ABC News might be in the position to complain about the use of Air Force One or any military transport of the Commander In Chief. Until then, I’d rather be in a foxhole with Roone Arledge.

    If you’ll pardon the Samuel L. Jackson impersonation, I guess they forgot that he’s the motherfuckin’ President of the motherfuckin’ United States!Unbelievable hypocrites!

  • Chris

    Come on. The mainstream media is clearly biased towards liberals. You’re actually denying that?

  • AdyLeigh

    Okay, two f-ing words: HE WON!

  • jane

    Howdy, Chris. I’m awake. Bring it the fuck on.

  • jane

    >>Come on. The mainstream media is clearly biased towards liberals. You’re actually denying that?Chris, why don’t you defend that.

  • Chris

    Jane, come on. It’s obvious to everyone but extremely partisan liberals. Most people who work in journalism lean to left, it’s only natural that it would affect their coverage. Some try to be objective, others not so much…The press should be tough on both parties, not pick favorites.

  • jane

    Chris, that’s a theory, not a defense. Dumbass.

  • jane

    Adding: gimme a fucking example. Every other post on this blog refutes your theory, so gimme a FUCKING EXAMPLE or SHUT THE FUCK UP.

  • gypsy

    good girl jane! another bites the dust…hohhh…

  • Chris

    Stay classy Jane.

  • http://www.broadwaycarl.blogspot.com Broadway Carl

    Good defense, dumbass.

  • jane

    Good god, Gyps, where have you been? Building model skyscrapers with your “little friend”?I either scared it off or it’s still combing hours and hours of video for an example to prove how our media is in the tank for liberals. (Happy hunting!)

  • jane

    Chris, when people tell me to stay classy I say SUCK MY DICK.It works especially well when they tell me to stay ladylike.

  • Chris

    Nice, Jane. I’m sure you’ll go far with that type of attitude.

  • http://www.broadwaycarl.blogspot.com Broadway Carl

    Still waiting for an example, dumbass.

  • jane

    Go far. (does he mean, ‘success with people!’?)Yeah, I lay awake at night worrying about going far.

  • Chris

    There are websites devoted to exposing liberal media bias. I’m sure you’ll pass them off as right wing propoganda or something, but what do you want me to do?

  • jane

    Chris is busy trolling multiple sites at once. It is a hard job being so annoying to so many people in so many places at once.

  • http://sourgrapes@comcast.net idreamofskiba

    I love Jane.

  • jane

    >>what do you want me to do?Do you really want to know?

  • jane

    Why are all our trolls such MUTHERFUCKING PUSSIES tonight when I am really in a mood?You just can’t get good trolls anymore. Must be the economy.

  • jane

    I love I dream of Skiba.

  • theo

    if gay marriage ever gets legal and stuff, I call dibs on Jane. I know she’s straight, but I can fix that.

  • Chris

    I’m not trying to “troll”. Just trying to engage in some kind of debate. Agreeing with eachother constantly, and constantly attacking everyone who disagrees has to get a bit old, no?

  • jane

    Yeah, here’s the definition of ‘debate’ that I like:”discussion for the purpose of elucidating truth or influencing action”Bring it.

  • theo

    Chris, if you wanted an honest debate, you’d give an example of liberal bias.

  • jane

    And Theo, you might could swing me gay, but swing me pro-marriage? Give it the fuck up! (You know I loves you.)

  • theo

    I’d be willing to live with you, Jane.

  • jane

    lol.

  • theo

    troll? troll, come back!

  • jane

    Whaddya have to do to get a decent troll in this hizzy?

  • Chris

    The intellect on display here is astounding. Must be tough knowing all the answers to every question in the world.http://www.newsbusters.orgIs a great site for your daily dose of liberal media bias…I’m sure you’ll write it off though.

  • jane

    How is Lindsay Graham convinced we’re “about to spend almost a trillion dollars” if he’s voting against it anyway? Does he know something we don’t know? Like, that his side is gonna lose?

  • seejane

    Here you go, have fun.

  • jane

    I’ll see your News dusters and I’ll raise you a Media Matters.

  • seejane
  • jane

    Heh, you target me and forget to include your linky.

  • jane

    If you were a successful troll, er, debater, you’d probably be working a site with more than one person still awake and commenting.Dumbass.

  • Chris

    Media Matters is a bit iffy. I find them blatantly dishonest, and borderline propogandist.Like Michael Crichton said..Its a lot harder to find the truth these days..

  • jane

    >>newsbusters…you’ll write it off though.>>Media Matters is a bit iffy. I find them blatantly dishonest, and borderline propogandist.Please differentiate. And then engage your spell check.

  • seejane

    Keeping with the original post, maybe everyone here should read the actual ABC story. It is hardly a biased story about Obama’s perks but, more of here are the facts about the president’s perks and lifestyles. ABC is reporting on the wall street bloggers trying to make the comparison, not attacking Obama.

  • jane

    Chris, seeme, whoever you wannabe, the entire premise of the article is comparing Obama’s “perks” to CEO “perks.” Wherefore art thou, Obama bias?(Goddamn, I was *so* stressed out tonight and all we had was a couple of seriously lame trolls.)If you can’t keep me awake any longer, Mission Fail, fucktard.

  • Eruleptanero

    I absolutely love seeing the MRC used as an example of proving the liberal media bias – yeah, because Brent Bozell is just the most objective, non-biased guy ever.

  • SillyGit

    I’m still waiting for ABC’s Brian Ross to tell us which four sources in the Bush Administration leaked the story to Ross that the Anthrax used in the Anthrax mailings came from Iraq (it did not) that caused ABC to say that on the evening news multiple times the week after the Anthrax letters were received. Mr. Ross has ignored this question even though it was not asked until it was discovered that this was blatant misinformation used to strengthen the case for an Iraq invasion.The targets of those letters are rather interesting. One would expect reporters to question why the people targeted match the list of people who ere the biggest thorns in Bush’s side. I asked that question at the time. I was dumbfounded that no one in the press was curious about it.Of course this is the same press that does not report that the SoS of two states had scientific evaluations of voting machines done and both studies concluded that the voting machines we use can not be trusted to do anything correctly. There is no indication that these machines correctly count votes, and every indication that they do not. Isn’t it rather odd that the ‘news media’ ignores election integrity stories completely? One would think that these study results would be big news.Google “CA top to bottom review” and “OH EVEREST” if you want to know about this, since the ‘news media’ doesn’t want you to know about it.Why was ABC so complicit with disinformation and careful not to ask any questions that would weaken the case for an Iraq invasion?Perhaps you haven’t noticed all of the discussions in the news media about their failures during Bush’s first term.Chris, there are many university studies that prove beyond doubt that the so-called ‘liberal bias’ of the news media is a myth. They are being kind, it is not a myth, it is the biggest piece of propaganda out there which enables additional propaganda.The corporate news media is the propaganda arm of the United Corporations of America. They have nothing to do with ‘news’, unless by news you mean carefully chosen outright lies, half-truths, and misinformation used to further the corporatist agenda.

    I forgot to add -Reality had a liberal bias.That’s why the right wing ideology is often in conflict with reality.
