First "Joe the Plumber, now - "Katy the Sleeping Giant"

[maxrandb]

I swear it is amazing!!! 53% of over 120,000,000 people voted for President Obama and gave large majorities to the Democrats in both the House and Senate, but the "liberal" media can't find one "regular" American in favor of Health Care Reform????

Instead, we're treated to the mind-numbing ramblings of "Joe the ' I make $30K a year as an unregistered plumber, and your socialist policies are preventing me from buying a 300K plumbing company' Plumber", and "Katy 'you've awakened a sleeping giant to help me pay for my 20K deductable health care plan' Wingnut".

Holy fucking framing the debate Batman!!!!!

LIBERAL MEDIA MY ASS!!!!!

1. In retrospect, I should have known this was coming....

back in the early 80s(?) when the news channels started saying things like "we're making a commitment to not just reporting the *bad* news, we're going to include at least one positive story each day!"

In a sense, that was the conceptual birth of Fox News. I just didn't see it yet. I should have realized it was time to start building the survival compound.

3. It helps explain why even stupid ass stuff

like "Death Panels" is given even 10 "effing" seconds of air-time.

I'm surprised they haven't had the Grand Wizard of the KKK on our 24 hour news media, just to give the "pro-slavery" side of the story. Just keeping it "fair and balanced", don't ya' know?

Hell, when you think about it, letting these crazy wingnuts rant about "socialism" regarding health care, is just about the same as giving the "pro-slavery" side of the story. We're all just talking about different "masters".

2. bwahahahah....I'm sorry....

Every time I see the title of this thread I think of this really bad movie from the late 50s entitled, "Attack of the 50 Foot Woman"


:rofl:

4. Someone needs to ask her

"Why she hates 'Murika?"

These folks gnash their teeth about President Obama going to Reverend Wright's Church, but fail to see that they have been attending the "Church of Limpballs and Insanity" 24/7/365!!

Talk about a church that preaches "hate, lies, fear, anger and deceit"??!!

5. Unfortunately crazies make better TV.

Which is the main problem here. Supposed "News" channels are focusing on "entertainment" rather than information.
