President Obama announced that he was beefing up funding for the Small Business Administration, which is expected to increase job creation. But the biggest opponent is the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Mike Papantonio appears on Fox Business's Happy Hour to talk about why the Chamber must be stopped in order to create sustainable jobs in America.

1. Why go on a show just to be shouted down and called a Libbrul?
If I want to be drowned out by sheer volume, I'll just go stand by myself under a waterfall.

It's prettier, less stressful, and healthier, too. Plus, in this case, at least,
the company is better, too.

11. You gotta look at it from Papantonio`s point of view.
He got invited to the Fox News House, and happily proceeded to take a giant liberal shit on their carpet! If anyone can do that, it`s Big Pappa.

12. Oh, he gives as good as he gets, I know
I've talked with guy before, and he can hold his own, but go on Fox against three of their goons, and
all you do is get shouted down. I think Fox must have training sessions on how to shout down guests,
especially if they are not from the lunatic fringe of the right. All their "hosts" seem to have the
same tactic: shout, shout, let it all out, as the song went.......

2. Fox bullshit
Edited on Mon Feb-08-10 09:07 AM by 90-percent
"The people want debt reduction" Why not just state as fact; "The people want bigger bonuses for Wall Street and big banks"!

WHAT?

IS there any factual basis for this "Fox Fact"?

This program is always three to one against Pap and they don't let him speak. They shout at him every third word!

Apoplectic.

4. Please

RE-INSTATE THE FAIRNESS DOCTRINE. The oh soo obvious, loudmouthed, sarcastic turds on FOX tee vee, have to be MADE to REPORT the NEWS. Not scream lies or "(corporate) opinions", unless they are clearly labeled as such and give EQUAL air-time to people with differing "opinions." "Free-market NEWS", which was a gift from Reagan, has proven that it does not work, except as a propaganda machine. Free-market = sold to the highest bidder.....
On the other hand, the regulated by THE FAIRNESS DOCTRINE tv, worked very well from the very first tv broadcast til Reagan....


**on edit** Reagan did this by telling his FCC "chief" to drop the fairness doctrine. Obama merely has to tell the current FCC "chief" to re-instate it.

5. Waste of Papantonio's time, waste of the viewers time.
They did everything but spit on him.

6. Gosh....a fox-girl is actually courteous and smarter than the two clowns next to her?
Mike does a great service. If he didn't go on, all you would have are fox-butt-cakes spreading their twisted logic and "trickle-down finance ideology".

I realize the two clowns try to mock and shout him down...but he DOES make his point. It all depends if the viewer is willing to listen to it.

Nice job Mike!

8. 'But the biggest opponent is the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.'
I expect that would be the ultimate endorsement.
