| Right wing outrage over Obama breathing |
|
They get outraged over any and everything. It begins to have no meaning whatsoever. They are like the boy who cried wolf. This trait should be exaggerated and made fun of by our side. It is absurd.
How dare Obama scratch his nose! How dare he breathe! How dare he support oil drilling; how dare he not support it! How dare he blame BP; how dare he condemn it! How dare he take responsibility for anything! How dare he not!
Get over it you carping old wusses of the GOP punditocrisy. Start being part of the solution and not part of the endless, self-aggrandizing, gossiping LIE machine. All these hyperventilated lies make it much harder to deal with the very real problems at hand.

about it over the phone this morning and I called them a pack of impotent whiney vultures..she thought it was an apt description..and hoped she could remember that.
That's why they do it because it makes it that much harder. Will the corporatemediawhores in the USA ever change?

| 11. They affect the national discourse mightily |
|
Thanks to our lickspittle corporate press. Sometimes, they seem to control the discourse completely.
That makes them dangerously potent.

| 3. No exaggeration about it: the mentality and intelligence of subnormal unsupervised children. |

| 4. I think a lot of people are feeling great stress over this |
|
Makes them a bit illogical.
I'm not exactly happy with the way he has handled things, but not at all outraged, because he hasn't really handled it badly........but, in all honesty, it could have been better.
The outrage is due to 1. politics, and 2. great stress.

| 5. I just deleted a facebook friend who posted |

That Obama was not going to be in Arlingto, but taking some time off. Quick google found he wold be honouring the soldiers, in his home state with Biden going to Arlington. Several of her frineds jumped on the old knock Obama bandwagon as well, really making it mean and stupid. Rather then reply or try and "educate" them on the merit's go google, I just thught, fuck it, it's not worth it, it really isn't.
