NPR/BBC this morning had some Repig living in the UK trashing Obama..
...he was citing WSJ (yep - as if THAT is by any measure an objective opinion) and other papers quoting all their negative comments RE: Obama and Obama's speech.

The asshole said "Americans don't care about the economy or our moral standing in the world. They care about less/smaller government and transparency in gov't and those are McCain advantages."

:wtf:

OBVIOUSLY Mr. GOP-in-the-UK has been over there TOO LONG and hasn't a freaking clue. If less gov't means NO healthcare, NO jobs, paying $4/gal for gas, home values sinking and foreclosures all over the country due to the REPUBLICAN-DEREGULATED banking and investment industries, then - WRONG. Americans to NOT want smaller government.

Now, as for gov't transparency - well, he didn't go there, interestinKly enough. HOW MUCH TRANSPARENCY does the bu$hit, Inc. crime ring have? Any reason to think McSame's would have any MORE than that?

In fact, REPUBLICANS HATE gov't transparency. They LIKE things done in secret. In the back. In the corner. Behind closed doors. Under the table. In the dark. Where THE PEOPLE can't see what they're doing.

Duh.

I cannot believe THE BBC would air this INACCURATE TRASH from an OBVIOUS neo-con who has OBVIOUSLY been living overseas TOO long.

:mad:

1. Every poll in the country shows economy no. 1 issue.
Another media lie. But it's so obvious, it won't fool anyone.
