New Game: How Long It Takes For Them To Criticize PBO When You Turn On A Cable News Program.....

It seems within the first few seconds of every cable news show I turn on from its start - they criticize PBO in some way. What's in vogue the last couple of days is the ACA website. Try it yourself. At the top of the hour or on the half hour - when they start a new show or segment - see how long it takes to criticize the President in some way, shape or form.

It pisses me off. Here we are just a few days since the government got back up and running. The Repugs and Tea Party cost us $24 billion with this shutdown and almost brought calamity to the world economy - and you don't hear anything about that.

But all the Repugs are mugging the cameras dumping on the President.

I've turned my TV to cooking shows now. Screw cable news.

It's a waste of time and brain cells.

I can criticize PBO with the best; I'm not now, and have never been, a fan of neoliberals. I don't need the help of the media to do so.

blaming him for Roberts' total fuck-up of the recitation of the Oath of Office.
