"Should Obama Be Killed?"

Can you believe that this was a question in a resent Facebook poll? As some may already know that when it comes to terrorism I always ask the question, are their crazies crazier than our crazies? We gladly spend trillions under the lies of rescuing and saving other countries without concern, but when it comes to paying for health care for our citizens we ask who will pay for it? Bush never budgeted for two wars, funded it with emergency supplemental funding (how can a multi-year war be an unforeseen emergency?) and America never asked a question. Now some in America want President Obama killed. We really know why these people want harm to come to President Obama and the republican hate machine should be ashamed from encouraging our crazies in that direction. America, the world is watching!

FOX NEWS - Drops the ball

I would have hated to have been a commentator for FOX NEWS this week of the Democratic Convention. They looked very uncomfortable as they tried to push politics rather than news. Politics aside the Democratic Convention displayed great American stories and beliefs. The FOX NEWS commentators had a very hard time spinning these stories and beliefs to the point of stumbling, some dead air and uncomfortably repeating the same old talking points. We all know that all political conventions are staged and this Democratic Convention was done so beautifully. It was a mistake for FOX NEWS to try to push the Republican talking points at this time. They made have violated one of the first rules of successful combat. Never battle on the field of the enemy's choosing. The FOX MEWS commentators were reduced to repeating the phrase "I know your are, but what am I?". Sad! FOX NEWS would have been better served by dropping the Pom Poms and becoming a real news organization for a change. That may be too much to ask for, but one day it may happen. Are there any real main stream news organizations out there anymore? I'm serious! Most news organizations are either opinion and commentary soap operas or Paris Hilton talking head shows. I remember the days when the news was the news. Someone came on and told you what was going on and it was done in order of real importance. No commentary, Paris Hilton and Brittney Spears would have never made the evening news unless they killed someone. News was a public service and the news organizations were never expected to make a profit. I won't rant anymore, but you get the point. Now that the Republican Convention is next week and I would be surprised if the coverage is as disgusting as FOX NEWS coverage of the Democratic Convention. I'm biased but fair so if it is please come back and keep me honest. One day FOX NEWS will get off of it's knees, discard the knee pads and stop giving the Republican party the endless Lewinsky. When that day comes they may become a real news organization. NOT!
