We have politics in play here as the liberal MSM openly supported Obama over Clinton in the campaign and now are forced to follow through with him in office. To do otherwise for them is admit that they were not informing the American public at large with the Truth behind each of the candidates. One can see that the liberal MSM has gone down in circulation, readership and support from the public as the public has learned through the internet how they were deceived.
Nice policies like reward the Unions over the Shareholder at GM and Chrysler, reward the Bankers over the depositers with their own money. Cap & Trade to force Green Jobs while shutting down over 5.2 million jobs across the country. Now a Mandated tax in the Health Care on everyone, plus the federal government being the only health issuer by 2013, no wonder the public has woke up.

We get tired of the propaganda, followed by lies, which just lead us to loss of freedom and our constitutional rights. It only took the phony stimulus bill, crap and tax, now health for us to smell the rat.
And calling US patriots "brown shirts", Timothy McVeighs, patriotic terrorists, and to shut up and get out of the way, woke a sleeping giant up. Liar in chief.

Real Americans never give up fighting for liberty and freedom. We must never allow those that do not believe what our country was founded for triumph. We must go to the ballot box every election and vote those who would change our country to a state that does not stand for what we have accomplished and the foundation of our existence as agreed upon by the founding fathers. Those natural born Americans in congress that vote for bills that would grant amnesty to illegals should be at the top of any Americans list to vote out of office. Voting for a bill that allows those with a name like yours who is here illegally demonstrates that those elected to congress does not care what is best for America.

Sometimes you can just ignore Facts, Logic, History and the Constitution for so long, before you look like a complete idiot.

The Truth of IN you are an inspiration
I have been researching and posting my findings and links Hoping others would do the same, Because you cannot trust partisans from either party because there only agenda is winning. I am an independent because I believe in America not competition. I also like honest debates Because of the opportunity to learn new ideas and methods of doing things.
I believe we need a public option if the health care is to be successful
In Hard times “Roosevelt responded with a new program of reform: Social Security, heavier taxes on the wealthy, new controls over banks and public utilities, and an enormous work relief program for the unemployed.”(http://www.whitehouse.gov/about/presidents/franklindroosevelt/)
We need to study the past to move on to the future, The money that President Obama is spending is probably comparable to what President Roosevelt spent getting us out of the great depression.
The only question I have is what exactly is in the health care reform bill only because like many of you, I have a hard time reading 1018 pages or listening to the same.
I do believe without a public option we will be where we were before. And if Public option Does take over it will be because Private health care could not give up there unreasonably high profits.
Jobs must be lost so those ready for the future can move us into the future. Unfortunately the little guy like you and I gets hurt in the process.
I missed or did not find when we deregulated the utilities, President Carter deregulated trucking and airlines which we learned I believe was a mistake on his part.
How do we prevent depression or recession in the future?
Lets get a blog going that will list the health care bill a section at a time. I wonder if one of usnews reporters is able to handle that????

Fox news is the ONLY network actually providing the news. What used to be called the "Mainstream Media" have lied down and stopped doing any real journalism. When they do have the chance to interview the president, they ask softball questions. This hurts the president, because he appears to be coddled. I personally stopped watching the evening news 4 months ago, when I realized they weren't actually covering the news anymore. The Van Jones story and the Acorn debacle, unfornuately for the irrelevant mainstream, showed just how out of touch with news on this administration they all are. Charlie Gibson didn't even KNOW about he Acorn story as of yesterday??? How is that possible? But it does go to show just how ignorant they are and the ratings are showing it. FOX is killing all news channels, by up to 8X the viewers per show. Americans want real news coverage, not whatever the lap dogs want us to know. But some people want to stick their heads in the sand, so keep following blindly. Nuff said....

Of course the media is finally being honest about Obama. The people are onto their sham coverage and its effecting their pocketbook and their prestige. They still have a long way to go when it comes to reporting honestly.
OH yeah... Foxinoia will destroy ya.

Fox News has never to my knowledge had ANYTHING favorable to say about the president, nor anyone in his cabinet, even the Republicans. They have launched a vendetta of hatred that is literally pitting friend against friend, citizen against citizen, and Americans against their own government.
Their non-stop barrage of yellow journalism makes it hard to give credance to whatever authentic stories they may pursue. Believe me, I am no left wing radical, but I feel creepy as Hell after listening to those nut jobs on Fox News. Give me PBS or CNN anyday over them.
