Sorry. I'm taking the day off from the Sunday Morning shows

[Norbert]

After they were talking about a poll that says Democrats will take a horrible beating next year as talked about on ABC earlier.

Not sticking my head in the sand, I'm just tired of this shit today and have very little interest in a poll 11.5 months before mid-terms.

Maybe next week.

1. But how else will you hear about inflation is going to come and get you and eat you

[Lovie777]

2. The tune will change around the first of next year and or the last month of this year . .

The GQP are quite worried about 2022 and thereon, therefore their corporate own media is in constant bashing and trashing of the Democrats and say nothing about that CRT bullshit, republicans dying of COVID, and the economy is on it's way to recovery.

3. It's a gorgeous day in New England. Nice to be outside.

[twodogsbarking]

7. Pennsylvania. Looking out the window at snow coming down.

Going outside soon.

[Tomconroy]

8. Wow. Make sure it doesn't come my way!

[twodogsbarking]

10. I'll shake my fist at the sky.

That'll work.

[11 Bravo]

23. Send it south! We haven't had a decent snow here in NOVA for way too long.

[ShazamIam]

4. I don't know why anyone watches all the talkers, their job is to shape your thinking,

just surrender and hand the nation over to the corporations and bankers. /s

[JohnSJ]

14. Well said. +++

[pwb]

5. I have taken the last year off from cable news.

It feels good. They are against us, all of them.

[twodogsbarking]

9. Just a way to sell more drugs with the side effects

of nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Not really news.

[JohnSJ]

13. +++

[TheBlackAdder]

6. You're not going to lick the spots on Chuck Toad to get that GOP-leaning hallucinagenic effect?

[twodogsbarking]

11. Good one. I get it.

When a dog licks a toad it froths at the mouth. Hauntingly familiar, eh.

[JohnSJ]

12. I stopped after the over the top hyperbole regarding the Afghanistan withdrawal. It is the written

media where I stay informed. Newspapers, etc.

[madinmaryland]

15. I gave that stuff up thirty years ago. Same old, same old.

[GoCubsGo]

17. Same here.

More like 20 years ago, but it has still been a long time. I do not regret it at all.

[DFW]

16. I think the right-wing controlled media are trying for a self-fulfuilling prophecy

If they predict it loud enough and often enough, they think it will happen. The only way, of course, is if they convince enough Democratic voters the situation is hopeless and they might as not well not even bother--that plus enough Republican voter disenfranchisement occurring that Democratic votes never even get cast.

[Walleye]

18. I'm with you. I don't get cable news. They all say the same things over and over

I don’t know how they manage to talk and talk and never say anything I’ve never heard before

[TheFarseer]

19. Good idea

How much horse race crap can a person take? These people are up and these people are down with no discussion about who’s policies help the most people. And no real discussion about who has done what policy-wise in the past. The host just nods their head to whatever claim is made by their political hack guests. It’s useless.

[NewHendoLib]

20. Woke, made an apple Dutch baby, read some of the NYT,

Did the puzzles, 3 mile walk with wife and dogs.

Welcome to my typical Sunday! TV hasn't been turned on for TV use in 17 years. lunch time!!

[hunter]

21. I quit television news and opinion twenty years ago.

My world became a much brighter place.

[Dawson Leery]

22. The beltway class are 1 percenters.

There is a reason they are paid millions. They manufacture opinion to match the owner class (GOP).

This time four years ago (2017) and sixteen years ago (2005), the beltway class insisted the Democrats were winning nothing in the coming midterm.

[Ghost of Tom Joad]

24. I kicked the habit two weeks ago

and interestingly enough since I turned off cable news I've been sleeping so much better,.
