(82,849 posts)Granted, we're a pretty tuned-in community when it comes to politics, but for all that, we really are little more than a bunch of folks with internet access. You'd think world class news organizations, with big salaries and the best resources money can buy, would at least be able to keep up. But we put them to shame time and again when the Republicans start in on their little talking points.
The talking chuckleheads are looking around for a fainting couch over the Replublicans' latest breathless "outrage" that President Obama is making a campaign issue out of his first term accomplishments! It takes all of 10 minutes to find similar and worse exploitation by Republicans of what really were non-partisan and non-political events turned to their own advantage.
These overpaid schmucks need to be kicked right square in the butt.
