The Tea Party didn't cause the debt crisis, Obama and the Democrats did.
This is what pisses me off. (Like how I put the pub part in red and the dem part in blue?)
True. The Tea Party didn't cause the debt crisis. They're just exacerbating it to the point nobody, from the country down to you and me, will EVER GET ANY FUCKING CREDIT after Aug 2.
False. Obama and the Democrats did not create the debt crisis.
I'm so sick and fucking tired of hearing this from the Hannity's out there. GEORGE BUSH CREATED THE FUCKING DEBT CRISIS! What's sad is the unintelligent (read: his listeners) believe those words.
Where's ekg? She does enraged sooooo much better than moi.
ekg can't take the lies and stupidity anymore.. The final (final-final) straw was watching Fox News blast the evil liberal media for daring to bring up that the Norway bomber was a right-wing christian. Fox is aghast that anyone could ever link him to Christianity because Christians don't kill people and because as Bill O claims, there just isn't a single shred of proof this guy was christian.. his 15,000 page manifesto with nothing but christian references and pictures, along with his Christian-themed power-point aside of course..Let's not forget their equal disdain towards the Liberals for thinking you could ever link all Christians together with the act of a single terrorist.. I mean, it's not like Muslims, where one act represents them all for God's sake...No, this is different than that and damn the liberals for saying anything different..
When added into the deficit debate, I've seen a huge shift in Fox's reality. While they've always been to the right of reality, now.. they are simply out and out lying and their party is more than just mimicking it here and there.. they are going to fucking TV after presidential addresses to give their own address to country that is full of lies and deceit..and no one is calling them on it! Because to do so makes that person 'partisan' and a liberal-media-shill.. Thank you Sarah Palin for that!
Here's a great article from TIME
http://swampland.time.com/2011/07/27/still-true-today-frequently-forgotten-facts-of-the-debt-debate/that would simply be laughed at on Fox news.. which in turn would be picked up by their party and laughed at.. even though it's verifiable facts, one side of this country's political system and it's 'news organization' have decided that lies and deceit work better for them because that is what their members and viewers want more than anything else..
sadly,
every Rep I admired in some-way a few years ago, has fallen into the same 'liars-rut'.. I don't know of a single one anymore that I can call 'honest' in any way..
I can understand why a Dem can't get a single thing done anymore, since they are working against a party who is not above lying,deceiving, photo-shopping and editing reality.. nor is that side interested in any way in helping this country IF it means Obama might just get a point or two in his approval rating.. what I don't understand is how, as a country, we have not just allowed it, but encouraged and demanded this kind of behavior and have dissuaded the media from even bringing it up?
