THE SUBJECT

I'm not understanding why very certain individuals go into someones blog site and just go off their rockers completely and just type any dumb thing comes into their head.  Not anywhere near the subject.

Why?

I know you can do this - it is within the "rules" and all - but I can't figure the reason.  Would you be so self centered and self serving at someones home?  Or do you save up your bad manners and let them lose in this anonymous location?

awsmom8 - I guess you have to read the original post.  THE SUBJECT asked why people take sites off the intended subject.  It is done alot, and I don't understand it.  It would seem if you wanted to say something, you would post. 

Ya know, the older I get the more things I don't understand.  This is just another one in a long list.  And, in the big picture, certainly not a very important one.

Just what is "the subject???"

awsmom8 - the topic was called "the subject."  Do you think it was purposely taken off course?  Nah ..... who would waste their time doing that?

countygirl, I am not a drug addict, or a liberal, ( aren't they the same thing? LOL, just kidding oohchild), but I am occasionally slightly drunk, hmm, maybe tonight, I am joining the rest of the country in celebrating Hillarys downfall

WOW!!! THis blog has been hijacked!   What was the orginal topic about????

posted by Washburn on Feb 20, 2008 at 01:34 PM

I've tried to figure out why.  Why would the media report on a liberal bias? 

Just so you know I can talk out of both sides of my mouth, I offer up another question.  Why is there, and who is behind, the vast right wing conspiracy?

Well you're not a liberal Starbucks so you MUST be a drug addict or a drunk for your thought process!!  It only makes sense I see people on here being accused of this stuff all the time so it must be true. (insert rolling eyes)

Bob Geldof said it , is he smoking too?, Maybe Google has it, and a few papers will mention it once, but along with 18 negative stories, c'mon oohchild, everyone knows the press is liberal, even they admit it, and embrace it, denial will get you nowhere,,,its ok oohchild, im no big fan of Bush anyway, i just dont like hearing one side to a story, and double standards, and, I dont smoke.

OMG, Starbucks1, what have you been smoking? I just googled "Bush Africa" and found literally hundreds of news stories covering the Bush's trip across the continent. This includes TIME magazine, the New York Times, the AP, and many, many others.

Try it & you'll see for yourself. Geez, you're really grasping at straws, aren't you?

Western Press Refuses to Credit Bush for African Achievements

President Bush is off in Africa this week enjoying plaudits from numerous African political leaders for his efforts to modernize and improve health and human rights situations there.

Just as they've done with positive Iraq news, however, the Western press is burying the story when it comes to the Bush administration's achievements in Africa. Irish rock star and human rights activist Bob Geldof chided the media today for the situation:

Mr. Geldof praised Mr. Bush for his work in delivering billions to fight disease and poverty in Africa, and blasted the U.S. press for ignoring the achievement.Mr. Bush, said Mr. Geldof, "has done more than any other president so far.""This is the triumph of American policy really," he said. "It was probably unexpected of the man. It was expected of the nation, but not of the man, but both rose to the occasion."

"What's in it for [Mr. Bush]? Absolutely nothing," Mr. Geldof said.Mr. Geldof said that the president has failed "to articulate this to Americans" but said he is also "pissed off" at the press for their failure to report on this good news story."You guys didn't pay attention," Geldof said to a group of reporters from all the major newspapers.

Only Negative press = Low approval ratings

ohchild disagrees with me, surprise!, and thank you for proving my point about Clinton supporters calling all their corruption just, "alleged misdeeds ", thats one I havent heard,,,,, Here is an example of  Something you will never hear from the mainstream news...
The average unemployment rate during the Bush years is running lower than during the Clinton years.
 

Even with 9/11 and the recession that started during the Clinton years, unemployment is still very low, and it was 4.9 just late last year, did we hear anything about that?, no.

The media spin, turn good news into bad news, Spinning the positive economic news into a negative was another common problem during the summer of 2004. The way the media ignored the job adjustments in the October 8, 2004 Employment Situation report is a fine example. Only two of the 11 stories even mentioned the quarter-million increase in Bush’s job performance.

     Take a look at how ABC and NBC cover the same unemployment and job creation news on September 3, 2004. On ABC’s World News Tonight, Peter Jennings claimed the results didn’t live up to expectations. “The government said today that the economy added 144,000 jobs in August. That was better than the previous two months, when job growth essentially stalled. But it fell short of the 200,000 jobs per month that most economists consider the minimum for strong employment growth.”

     Of course, Jennings didn’t mention that the report also included an adjustment of 73,000 in those “essentially stalled” months. The overall total of jobs reported that month was 217,000 – 17,000 higher than the number he had cited.

typical liberal spin, but people dont know it, they just go with what they hear, all negative  =  Low approval ratings,
