Neil D Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 The political fields in the US have been blown out of the waters with the dems slowly advancing thier agenda and the C/A political forums have been a republican haven to have virtual crackers and cheese with the republican wine.... With the advance of Obama in the White House, it's time to admit that discounted liberal press has been reporting solid evidence that has touched the values of Americans....So, without further ado, MEDIA MATTERS, whose primary purpose is to dispell the Republican PR machine, will be considered no more left leaning than MSNBC, ABC, NBC, CNN, Ruters et al... Concider the this news source and this articles content- From its First Thoughts [emphasis added]: To paraphrase Dickens, the last six weeks have been the best of times for Obama and the Democrats, and the worst of times for the Republicans. Just consider the latest findings from our NBC/WSJ poll: Obama’s favorability rating is at 68% (an all-time high in our survey), 67% say they feel more hopeful about his leadership, 60% approve of his job in the White House, and 49% have a positive view of the Democratic Party (which is also near a high). On the other hand, just 26% view the GOP positively (an all-time low in the poll), respondents blame Bush and congressional Republicans for most of the partisanship in DC, 56% think the GOP’s opposition to Obama is based on politics, and Republicans lose by nearly 30 percentage points on the question about which party would do a better job of leading the country out of recession. All's I can say is thank God for polling. Because if the surveys didn't exist we'd still have a press corps focusing on the Republicans' "win" over Obama's stimulus package. (Why? Because Republicans always outmaneuver Democrats.) A win that, according to the American people and not the surgically disconnected Beltway press corps, was actually a colossal failure. For those with short-term memory woes, let's recap how, just a few weeks ago, the press was tipping its cap to the GOP and its genius stimulus strategy of going all in against Obama and slapping the president's hand of bipartisanship. *Politico's Jeanne Cummings warned Obama was "losing [the] stimulus message war." *The Los Angeles Times, Peter Wallsten asserted that "[a] surprisingly unified GOP has taken control of the debate" about the stimulus plan. *The Wall Street Journal's Jonathan Weisman and Naftali Bendavid referenced in a February 6 article "Republicans' remarkable success during the past two weeks ... shaping a public image of the bill as pork-laden and ineffective." *Newsweek senior editor Michael Hirsh wrote that that Obama "has allowed the GOP to turn the haggling over the stimulus package into a decidedly stale, Republican-style debate over pork, waste and overspending." Hirsh continued: "Team Obama and his party are losing the debate" about the stimulus plan. *On MSNBC's 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Newsweek senior White House correspondent Richard Wolffe claimed the Democrats' "messaging has not worked." Wolffe also stated of the administration: "What they haven't done is say, hey, it's not just about spending. It's about mitigating, softening the blow of this recession for regular, working Americans. That's the bit they've failed on. They've let it be hijacked by all this extraneous spending programs." *On CNN's Lou Dobbs Tonight, congressional correspondent Jessica Yellin asserted that "official Washington has decided Obama is losing the PR war on the stimulus." To repeat: the Republicans' public approval ratings are now at an all-time low. The press never saw that coming.

Moderators Bravus Posted March 6, 2009 Moderators Share Posted March 6, 2009 The 'For Dummies'[1] version: The press is busy saying 'the public hates Obama's message on the stimulus'. At the same time the polls show public approval for Obama is at record highs and disapproval for his opponents likewise. The press has it wrong. [1] *Not* saying anyone here is a dummy: the popularity of this book range mystifies me, and I'd certainly never buy one.

Dr. Shane Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 The "Huh?" was a reaction to the story. Where is this press that is reporting such dislike for the stimulus package? I hear that on talk radio but not in the mainstream press. The network morning shows are just giddy about telling us all the wonderful and exciting goodies Obama has for us in the stimulus package.

Members phkrause Posted March 6, 2009 Members Share Posted March 6, 2009 I second that! pk Quote phkrause By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near. {5T 451.1} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
