Liberal Media?

A lot of you guys are always saying that the US media is a liberal institution. Guess again, John McCain and Lindsey Graham own the airways.

The media is a wing of the Democrat Party. Is not a news reporting machine. It is the disinformation arm of the Democrat Party, specifically Obama and Reid. it makes Pravda look like FOX News. FOX News is even leaning more towards the left these days.

Damn Tux, you are singing from the right-wing hymnal aren't you? You don't agree with those facts?

No, I am singing from the hymnal of reality. The media covers Obama's ass and will never point out anything that would point out the reality of ObamaCare, Benghazi, Sequester.

Remember how the media came after Bob Woodward after he blasted Obama over the sequester stating it was Obama's idea, not the Republicans? Most of them said Woodward is too old and should retire. I'm still waiting for them to properly cover the Gosnell butchery. I loved the way Obama brought in Candy Crowley into the presidential debates to back up his lies about Benghazi. Liberal media bias??? Hardly.

Michael Vick kills dogs, its national news for months. Gosnell kills babies, national media ignores it. Media likes dogs more than babies?

Now you guys are having a right-wing sing song. Is it "all" media that you think is against you? You must listen to Rush Limbaugh on radio all day long (that must be like living in hell).

btw, agree with you on Benghazi being a clusterfuck beyond all comprehension but Obama controlling Candy Crowley is complete made up nonsense. Romney opened his mouth and stuck his foot in it in that exchange.

Galla, if youy can not see that the media is not the arm of the liberal establishment, then you are not paying attention to reality.

No, Crowley should have told Obama she would not interject herself into the debate. Instead, she agreed with Obama, and she was wrong on her facts.

When is the media going to hammer home the effects of Obamacare on the taxpayers? My health insurance has gone up over $3K annually since Obamacare was opposed, and my benefits have gotten worse.

When is the media going to hammer Obama on his running record deficits, lousy jobs record, his foreign policy disasters all around the globe, and his and Moochelle's jet setting lifestyles that are costing millions of dollars per year?

When is the media going to report his stance on gun control is complete and utter rubbish? The media could point out the killings in Chicago as a prime example of a failure in gun control policies.

Bush was hammered on every misstep, but Obama is held to a much lower standard.

Funny, none of those things are seen by the general public the way you see them. C Crowley was managing a debate she is obligated to point out inaccuracies in a candidate's assertions (and the video proved she was correct). My wife's health insurance plan has bee the same for 5 years, and the country is beginning to see the money saved in Obamacare with even more to come when it is implemented in 2014. Charles Krauthammer, a far-righter from waaay back said on "Inside Washington" that Obama had been a good President so far, especially on foreign policy (I bout fainted). Bush destroyed the economy and ran up the deficit and it is costing a lot to fix it all. Btw the economy is recovering in case you hadn't noticed, better pick something else to be angry about. Obama's stance on gun control is widely known, he is for it. Bush deserved being hammered, he was the worse US President in my lifetime.

Obamacare is saving the country money eh? Tenncare is 25% of our state's budget, would you consider that a success?

Bush is the worst??? I take it you're only 12 and don't remember the Carter years. 18% inflation and mortage rates around 16%. Take me back to the Bush years--please!!!

Carter inherited Nixon and Ford's screw ups that why he only had one term. He was handed an economy in early stages of free fall. 1968-76 were years of Republican economic policy just like 2000-2008, same results just like the Great Depression.

Galla, you are making excuses for the two worst president in the history of this country. You wan to look at others and call them extremists and far right wingers. Hell Bill Clinton is a far right winger using your viewpoints that you have shared here.

Welcome to the world of Rod Serling.

Galla is not familiar with the Gosnell case because his parties information wing refuses to report on news that us detrimental to their views and beliefs.

Here you go Galla.
